Overview

openapi2mcptools is a utility library designed for converting OpenAPI specifications into tools compatible with the Model Context Protocol (MCP), streamlining the development of MCP servers based on OpenAPI specifications.

To use openapi2mcptools, import the Converter class from the library, load your OpenAPI specifications, and define your MCP server to handle requests using the converted tools.

  • Converts OpenAPI specifications to MCP-compatible tools. - Simplifies the creation of MCP servers based on OpenAPI. - Customizable HTTP client options for flexibility in requests.
  1. Rapid development of MCP servers using existing OpenAPI documentation.
  2. Integration of MCP tools in applications leveraging OpenAPI frameworks.
  3. Automating the translation between OpenAPI specs and MCP functionalities.

Use these steps to connect OPENAPI Specifications => MCP (Model Context Protocol) Tools 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": {
    "openapi2mcptools-2013xile": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-openapi2mcptools-2013xile"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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": {
    "openapi2mcptools-2013xile": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-openapi2mcptools-2013xile"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

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

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "openapi2mcptools-2013xile": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-openapi2mcptools-2013xile"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

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

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "openapi2mcptools-2013xile": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-openapi2mcptools-2013xile"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

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

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "openapi2mcptools-2013xile": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-openapi2mcptools-2013xile"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cline

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

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "openapi2mcptools-2013xile": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-openapi2mcptools-2013xile"
      ]
    }
  }
}
