Overview

What is mcp-pokeapi-server?

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides Pokémon information by integrating with the public POKEAPI. It uses JSON-RPC 2.0 over stdio, making it suitable for LLM applications and MCP clients that need to query Pokémon data.

How to use mcp-pokeapi-server?

Install dependencies with npm install, build with npx tsc, then start the server with npx ts-node src/index.ts. From an MCP client, send JSON‑RPC requests over stdin/stdout—first list_tools to discover the tool, then call_tool with the tool name getPokemonInfo and an argument nameOrId (a Pokémon name or numeric ID).
