MCP server for searching Magento 2 REST API documentation
Project description
Magento 2 REST API MCP Server
A local STDIO MCP server that provides tools to search and retrieve Magento 2 REST API documentation from OpenAPI (swagger) specifications.
Features
- Search Endpoints: Full-text search across all Magento 2 REST API endpoints
- Get Endpoint Details: Retrieve complete documentation for specific API endpoints
- List Categories: Browse endpoints by category tags (carts, customers, products, etc.)
- Search Schemas: Find data models and schema definitions
- Get Schema Details: View complete schema/model definitions with all properties
- Offline Operation: Works entirely offline using local swagger.json file
- Fast Startup: Only re-parses if swagger.json has been modified
How it Works
- Parsing: On startup, the server parses the OpenAPI 3.0 swagger.json file
- Indexing: Extracts endpoints, parameters, responses, and schemas
- Storage: Stores data in a local SQLite database with FTS5 indexes
- Searching: Provides full-text search across paths, descriptions, parameters, and schemas
Installation
Requirements
- Python 3.10 or higher
- uv (recommended) or pip
Install from Source
cd magento-api-mcp
pip install -e .
Usage
Running the Server
magento-api-mcp
The server starts immediately and parses the swagger.json file on first run or when the file has been modified.
Configuration
- Database Location: Default is
~/.mcp/magento-api/database.db- Override with
MAGENTO_API_DB_PATHenvironment variable
- Override with
- Swagger File: Default is
data/swagger.jsonin the package directory- Override with
MAGENTO_API_SWAGGER_PATHenvironment variable
- Override with
Using with an MCP Client
Configure your MCP client to run the magento-api-mcp command:
{
"mcpServers": {
"magento-api": {
"command": "magento-api-mcp"
}
}
}
Or with custom swagger file:
{
"mcpServers": {
"magento-api": {
"command": "magento-api-mcp",
"env": {
"MAGENTO_API_SWAGGER_PATH": "/path/to/your/swagger.json"
}
}
}
}
MCP Tools
1. search_endpoints
Search for API endpoints using keywords.
Parameters:
queries: List of 1-3 short keyword queries (e.g., ["cart", "customer"])filter_by_method: Optional HTTP method filter (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE)filter_by_tag: Optional category filter (e.g., "carts/mine")
Example:
search_endpoints(queries=["cart operations"], filter_by_method="GET")
2. get_endpoint_details
Get complete documentation for a specific endpoint.
Parameters:
path: Exact API path (e.g., "/V1/carts/mine")method: Optional HTTP method (if omitted, returns all methods for this path)
Example:
get_endpoint_details(path="/V1/carts/mine", method="GET")
Returns:
- HTTP method and path
- Category and operation ID
- Summary and description
- Parameters table with types and descriptions
- Request body schema (if applicable)
- Response codes and schemas
3. list_tags
List all available API category tags.
Returns: Hierarchical list of all endpoint categories with counts.
4. search_schemas
Search for data schemas/models by keyword.
Parameters:
query: Keyword to search for
Example:
search_schemas(query="customer")
5. get_schema
Get complete definition of a schema/model.
Parameters:
schema_name: Exact schema name (e.g., "quote-data-cart-interface")
Returns: Full schema with type, description, and all properties in JSON format.
Verification Scripts
Test each component independently:
# Test the OpenAPI parser
python3 tests/verify_parser.py
# Test database ingestion
python3 tests/verify_db.py
# Test MCP server and all tools
python3 tests/verify_server.py
Database Schema
The server uses SQLite with the following tables:
- endpoints: All API endpoints with FTS5 index
- parameters: Endpoint parameters
- responses: Response definitions
- schemas: Data model definitions with FTS5 index
- metadata: Ingestion tracking
Advantages Over Web Scraping
- No Network Dependency: Works completely offline
- Instant Startup: ~2-5 seconds vs minutes of web scraping
- Structured Data: Access to complete OpenAPI metadata
- Precise Search: Filter by method, category, response code
- Schema Resolution: Navigate complex nested data structures
- Deterministic: No HTML parsing or website structure changes
Example Queries
| Query | Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
["cart"] |
search_endpoints | Find all cart-related endpoints |
["customer", "authentication"] |
search_endpoints | Find customer auth endpoints |
/V1/carts/mine |
get_endpoint_details | Get complete cart endpoint docs |

Adding New Tools
To add new MCP tools, edit magento_api_mcp/server.py and use the @mcp.tool() decorator.
Using Different Swagger Files
The server can work with any OpenAPI 3.0 swagger file. Simply set the MAGENTO_API_SWAGGER_PATH environment variable:
export MAGENTO_API_SWAGGER_PATH=/path/to/different-api-swagger.json
