Met Museum Mcp Server

Connects Claude to the Metropolitan Museum of Art's public collection API with three focused tools: list all 19 curatorial departments, search 500K+ artworks by keyword with filters for date range, medium, geography, and public domain status, and fetch full object records including provenance, artist bios, Getty and Wikidata links, and CC0 image URLs. Built on the Met's open API, so no authentication required. Handles batch fetching for up to 20 objects at once with partial failure reporting, and surfaces CC0 flags so you know which images are actually usable. Reach for this when you need structured art historical data, open access images for display, or want to let Claude search museum collections with precise filtering rather than keyword scraping.
