# Iran Software Downloads
Unofficial read-only metadata search of Soft98, P30Download, Downloadly and VGDL. Links only.
The tools below come from the `iran-downloads-mcp` MCP server. If they are not available, install it with `claude mcp add iran-downloads -- uvx iran-downloads-mcp`, or add `"iran-downloads": {"command": "uvx", "args": ["iran-downloads-mcp"]}` to the client's MCP servers config. It needs [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/). Restart the session after installing.
## Tools
- `dl_list_sources`: List the four download-site sources and their latest-listing categories; call this first for valid ids.
- `dl_search`: Search the download sites by name and return metadata (title, item page url, category, date, short summary).
- `dl_latest`: Return the newest uploads of the download sites (soft98 has no latest listing), merged and sorted by date.
- `dl_item`: Return the details of one download item: name, version, size, category, date, description and system requirements.
## Rules
- Prices are Toman. Convert before comparing with a Rial figure from anywhere else.
- Read-only: no login, basket, booking, order or payment. Give the user the link to finish on the site.
- Keep request rates low. These are undocumented site APIs that can change or rate-limit.
- On timeouts or HTTP 403 outside Iran, set `IRAN_DOWNLOADS_MCP_PROXY` to an HTTP proxy with an Iranian IP.
- Metadata only: it returns the item page URL on the source site and never a download link. Say that the user must check each item's licence on that page. Sites: Soft98, P30Download, Downloadly, VGDL.
