Overview

Babashka MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol server designed for interacting with Babashka, a native Clojure interpreter for scripting.

To use the Babashka MCP Server, first install Babashka, then install the server dependencies, build the server, and configure it through environment variables. You can execute Babashka code through the server using the provided tools.

  • Execute Babashka code through MCP tools - Cache recent command results - Access command history through MCP resources - Configurable command timeouts
  1. Running Clojure scripts in a server environment.
  2. Automating tasks using Babashka's scripting capabilities.
  3. Managing command execution and history in a structured way.

Use these steps to connect Babashka MCP Server in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "babashka-mcp-server-bmorphism": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-babashka-mcp-server-bmorphism"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "babashka-mcp-server-bmorphism": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-babashka-mcp-server-bmorphism"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "babashka-mcp-server-bmorphism": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-babashka-mcp-server-bmorphism"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add this to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Requires the GitHub Copilot extension with MCP support enabled.

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "babashka-mcp-server-bmorphism": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-babashka-mcp-server-bmorphism"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add this to your Windsurf MCP config file, then restart Windsurf.

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "babashka-mcp-server-bmorphism": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-babashka-mcp-server-bmorphism"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cline

Open Cline settings, navigate to MCP Servers, and add this server configuration.

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

{
  "mcpServers": {
