openapi-tools-mcp 0.2.0

An MCP server powered by fastMCP for inspecting local OpenAPI specs.

OpenAPI Tools MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server powered by fastMCP for inspecting local OpenAPI specs. It exposes tools for listing and retrieving spec details with optional glob/tag filters and $ref resolution.

The server also publishes MCP metadata (instructions and website_url) to guide clients toward local-file OpenAPI inspection workflows.

Add as an MCP server

Add this server to your MCP client configuration (PyPI):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "openapi-tools": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "--from",
        "openapi-tools-mcp",
        "openapi-tools-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

This launches the openapi-tools-mcp entrypoint from PyPI via uvx.

TOML version (PyPI):

[mcp_servers.openapi-tools]
command = "uvx"
args = ["--from", "openapi-tools-mcp", "openapi-tools-mcp"]

You can also install directly from GitHub with uvx:

uvx --from git+ssh://[e-mail]/kardaj/openapi-tools-mcp.git openapi-tools-mcp

Available tools

• spec_info(spec_path): Quickly summarize a spec file (OpenAPI version, title/description, servers). Use this first to confirm you're reading the right spec and its base URLs.
• spec_list(section, spec_path, filter_by_glob?, filter_by_tag?): Enumerate keys within a spec section (e.g., all paths, schemas, or responses). Use to discover what exists before drilling into details.
• spec_get(section, name, spec_path, resolve_refs=True): Retrieve a specific item from a section (e.g., one path or schema), with optional $ref resolution and source line numbers for precise navigation.

All tools expect a readable OpenAPI YAML/JSON file path on the local filesystem. An example spec lives at tests/openapi.example.yml.
