Overview

What is OpenAPI MCP Server?

OpenAPI MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes OpenAPI endpoints as MCP resources. It allows Large Language Models to discover and interact with REST APIs defined by OpenAPI specifications through the MCP protocol.

How to use OpenAPI MCP Server?

Configure it in Claude Desktop by editing claude_desktop_config.json and adding the server entry with npx -y @ivotoby/openapi-mcp-server. Required environment variables are API_BASE_URL, OPENAPI_SPEC_PATH, and optionally API_HEADERS. You can also pass these as command line arguments to npm run inspect.
