Summary
The Openapi MCP Server enables Claude and Cursor to search and explore OpenAPI specifications hosted on oapis.org through a three-step process that identifies API identifiers, retrieves summaries in plain language, and provides detailed endpoint information. It provides tools to get overviews of any OpenAPI specification and retrieve details about specific API operations, supporting both JSON and YAML formats. This server solves the problem of making complex API documentation accessible and queryable by AI assistants without requiring manual specification parsing.

OpenAPI MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Claude/Cursor that enables searching and exploring OpenAPI specifications through oapis.org.
- Demo: https://x.com/janwilmake/status/1903497808134496583
- HN Thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43447278
- OpenAPISearch: https://github.com/janwilmake/openapisearch
- OAPIS: https://github.com/janwilmake/oapis
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
