openapi2mcp MCP Server

What is openapi2mcp?

openapi2mcp is a command-line tool that converts OpenAPI 3.x specification files into ready-to-run FastMCP servers. It is designed for developers who want to quickly expose existing REST APIs as MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers using standard transports.

How to use openapi2mcp?

Install via poetry install. Then use the openapi2mcp generate command to create a Python MCP server from a JSON or YAML OpenAPI spec, specifying input, output, transport (stdio or google_pubsub), an optional resource mount path, and an optional llms.txt file. Validate the generated code with openapi2mcp check and display the version with openapi2mcp version.
