Overview

What is mcp-acronym-lookup?

A lightweight, configuration-driven MCP server that ingests a CSV file of acronyms and initialisms to expose a lookup tool that returns their full meanings and descriptions as JSON.

How to use mcp-acronym-lookup?

Set the required ACRONYM_FILE environment variable to the path of a three‑column CSV (acronym, full form, description). By default the server runs in stdio mode; pass the --sse <addr> flag (e.g., :8080) to run in SSE mode with endpoints at /mcp/sse and /mcp/message.

Key features of mcp-acronym-lookup

  • Single tool resolves acronyms and initialisms from a CSV file.
  • Returns all matching definitions as JSON.
  • Case‑insensitive matching; ignores non‑alphabetic characters.
  • Supports only one CSV file per server instance.
  • Runs in stdio mode by default, with optional SSE mode.

Use cases of mcp-acronym-lookup

  • Look up acronyms in a chat application using an AI assistant.
  • Provide instant definitions for technical acronyms in documentation.
  • Resolve custom initialisms from an internal glossary via any MCP client.
  • Build a lightweight knowledge tool for domain‑specific abbreviations.

Frequently asked questions

1

What CSV format does mcp-acronym-lookup expect?

The CSV must have three columns in order: `acronym`, `full form`, and `description`. It should be UTF‑8 encoded and may include a header row.

2

How do I run mcp-acronym-lookup in SSE mode?

Use the `--sse` command‑line flag followed by an address (e.g., `:8080`). This exposes an SSE endpoint at `/mcp/sse` and a message endpoint at `/mcp/message`.

3

Are acronym lookups case‑sensitive?

No, matches are case‑insensitive. Input strings are sanitized by removing non‑alphabetic characters before lookup.

4

Can I use multiple CSV files with a single instance?

No, the server only supports one CSV file per instance.

5

What happens if multiple definitions exist for the same acronym?

All definitions that match the sanitized key are returned in a list.
