OpenAPI MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Claude/Cursor that enables searching and exploring OpenAPI specifications through oapis.org.
The MCP works by applying a 3 step process :
- It figures out the openapi identifier you need
- It requests a summary of that in simple language
- It determines which endpoints you need, and checks out how exactly they work (again, in simple language)
Features
- Get an overview of any OpenAPI specification
- Retrieve details about specific API operations
- Support for both JSON and YAML formats
- Tested with Claude Desktop and Cursor
Usage in Claude
Once installed, you can ask Claude to:
- "Find information about the Stripe API"
- "Explain how to use the GitHub API's repository endpoints"
Claude will use the MCP server to:
- First get an overview of the requested API
- Then retrieve specific operation details as needed
