MCP Server implementation for RapidAPI Global Patent API integration with SQLite storage

Catalog onlyCatalog onlySTDIO

Overview

RapidAPI MCP is a server implementation designed for integrating with the RapidAPI Global Patent API, facilitating the storage and retrieval of patent data using SQLite.

To use RapidAPI MCP, install the necessary packages, create a Conda environment, and initialize the MCP server for handling patent requests through the API.

  • Integration with RapidAPI Global Patent API - MCP server to manage patent requests - SQLite database for efficient storage of patent information - Advanced scoring system for analyzing patents - Includes error handling and rate limiting capabilities
  1. Retrieving patent data for research purposes in technology.
  2. Analyzing patents based on their scoring metrics.
  3. Building applications that require patent search functionalities.

Use these steps to connect RapidAPI 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": {
    "rapidapi-mcp-myownipgit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-rapidapi-mcp-myownipgit"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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": {
    "rapidapi-mcp-myownipgit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-rapidapi-mcp-myownipgit"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

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

.mcp.json (project root)

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

VS Code (Copilot)

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

.vscode/mcp.json

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

Windsurf

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

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

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

Cline

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

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rapidapi-mcp-myownipgit": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
