MCP server for Langsmith SDK integration

🦜🛠️ LangSmith MCP Server

A production-ready Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides seamless integration with the LangSmith observability platform. This server enables language models to fetch conversation history and prompts from LangSmith.

📋 Overview

The LangSmith MCP Server bridges the gap between language models and the LangSmith platform, enabling advanced capabilities for conversation tracking, prompt management, and analytics integration.

🚀 Example Use Cases

The server enables powerful capabilities including:

• 💬 Conversation History: "Fetch the history of my conversation with the AI assistant from thread 'thread-123' in project 'my-chatbot'"
• 📚 Prompt Management: "Get all public prompts in my workspace"
• 🔍 Smart Search: "Find private prompts containing the word 'joke'"
• 📝 Template Access: "Pull the template for the 'legal-case-summarizer' prompt"
• 🔧 Configuration: "Get the system message from a specific prompt template"

Once you have the LangSmith MCP Server, you can integrate it with various MCP-compatible clients. You have two installation options:

📦 From PyPI

1. Install the package:

   uv run pip install --upgrade langsmith-mcp-server
   

2. Add to your client MCP config:

   {
       "mcpServers": {
           "LangSmith API MCP Server": {
               "command": "/path/to/uvx",
               "args": [
                   "langsmith-mcp-server"
               ],
               "env": {
                   "LANGSMITH_API_KEY": "your_langsmith_api_key",
                   "LANGSMITH_WORKSPACE_ID": "your_workspace_id",
                   "LANGSMITH_ENDPOINT": "https://api.smith.langchain.com"
               }
           }
       }
   }
   

⚙️ From Source

Add the following configuration to your MCP client settings:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "LangSmith API MCP Server": {
            "command": "/path/to/uv",
            "args": [
                "--directory",
                "/path/to/langsmith-mcp-server/langsmith_mcp_server",
                "run",
                "server.py"
            ],
            "env": {
                "LANGSMITH_API_KEY": "your_langsmith_api_key",
                "LANGSMITH_WORKSPACE_ID": "your_workspace_id",
                "LANGSMITH_ENDPOINT": "https://api.smith.langchain.com"
            }
        }
    }
}

Replace the following placeholders:

• /path/to/uv: The absolute path to your uv installation (e.g., /Users/username/.local/bin/uv). You can find it running which uv.
• /path/to/langsmith-mcp-server: The absolute path to your langsmith-mcp project directory
• your_langsmith_api_key: Your LangSmith API key (required)
• your_workspace_id: Your LangSmith workspace ID (optional, for API keys scoped to multiple workspaces)
• https://api.smith.langchain.com: The LangSmith API endpoint (optional, defaults to the standard endpoint)

Example configuration:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "LangSmith API MCP Server": {
            "command": "/Users/mperini/.local/bin/uvx",
            "args": [
                "langsmith-mcp-server"
            ],
            "env": {
                "LANGSMITH_API_KEY": "lsv2_pt_1234",
                "LANGSMITH_WORKSPACE_ID": "your_workspace_id",
                "LANGSMITH_ENDPOINT": "https://api.smith.langchain.com"
            }
        }
    }
}

Copy this configuration in Cursor > MCP Settings.

🔧 Environment Variables

The LangSmith MCP Server supports the following environment variables:

Variable	Required	Description	Example
LANGSMITH_API_KEY	✅ Yes	Your LangSmith API key for authentication	lsv2_pt_1234567890
LANGSMITH_WORKSPACE_ID	❌ No	Workspace ID for API keys scoped to multiple workspaces	your_workspace_id
LANGSMITH_ENDPOINT	❌ No	Custom API endpoint URL (for self-hosted or EU region)	https://api.smith.langchain.com

Notes:

• Only LANGSMITH_API_KEY is required for basic functionality
• LANGSMITH_WORKSPACE_ID is useful when your API key has access to multiple workspaces
• LANGSMITH_ENDPOINT allows you to use custom endpoints for self-hosted LangSmith installations or the EU region

🐳 Docker Deployment (HTTP-Streamable)

The LangSmith MCP Server can be deployed as an HTTP server using Docker, enabling remote access via the HTTP-streamable protocol.

Building the Docker Image

docker build -t langsmith-mcp-server .

Running with Docker

docker run -p 8000:8000 langsmith-mcp-server

The API key is provided via the LANGSMITH-API-KEY header when connecting, so no environment variables are required for HTTP-streamable protocol.

Connecting with HTTP-Streamable Protocol

Once the Docker container is running, you can connect to it using the HTTP-streamable transport. The server accepts authentication via headers:

Required header:

• LANGSMITH-API-KEY: Your LangSmith API key

Optional headers:

• LANGSMITH-WORKSPACE-ID: Workspace ID for API keys scoped to multiple workspaces
• LANGSMITH-ENDPOINT: Custom endpoint URL (for self-hosted or EU region)

Example client configuration:

from mcp import ClientSession
from mcp.client.streamable_http import streamablehttp_client

headers = {
    "LANGSMITH-API-KEY": "lsv2_pt_your_api_key_here",
    # Optional:
    # "LANGSMITH-WORKSPACE-ID": "your_workspace_id",
    # "LANGSMITH-ENDPOINT": "https://api.smith.langchain.com",
}

async with streamablehttp_client("http://localhost:8000/mcp", headers=headers) as (read, write, _):
    async with ClientSession(read, write) as session:
        await session.initialize()
        # Use the session to call tools, list prompts, etc.

Cursor Integration

To add the LangSmith MCP Server to Cursor using HTTP-streamable protocol, add the following to your mcp.json configuration file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "HTTP-Streamable LangSmith MCP Server": {
      "url": "http://localhost:8000/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "LANGSMITH-API-KEY": "lsv2_pt_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Optional headers:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "HTTP-Streamable LangSmith MCP Server": {
      "url": "http://localhost:8000/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "LANGSMITH-API-KEY": "lsv2_pt_your_api_key_here",
        "LANGSMITH-WORKSPACE-ID": "your_workspace_id",
        "LANGSMITH-ENDPOINT": "https://api.smith.langchain.com"
      }
    }
  }
}

Make sure the server is running before connecting Cursor to it.

Health Check

The server provides a health check endpoint:

curl http://localhost:8000/health

This endpoint does not require authentication and returns "LangSmith MCP server is running" when the server is healthy.

🧪 Development and Contributing 🤝

If you want to develop or contribute to the LangSmith MCP Server, follow these steps:
