Lara API official MCP server
Connect Lara MCP to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client and it stops being a tab you switch to. Lara API official MCP server. The lara mcp mcp server is what makes that connection.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Lara Translate, enabling professional translation capabilities with support for language detection, context-aware translations, translation memories, and glossaries.
Because this one is hosted, setup is mostly authentication — you point your client at the endpoint and approve access. Nothing runs on your machine, so there is no runtime to keep patched.
The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:
Cursor — Once Lara Translate is listed in the official Cursor plugin marketplace, install it from inside Cursor:Translation — The Translation tool exposed by this serverGlossaries — The Glossaries tool exposed by this serverConfiguration is passed through the environment: LARA_ACCESS_KEY_ID, LARA_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET, YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_ID, YOUR_ACCESS_KEY_SECRET. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.
Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Lara MCP's toolset — Cursor, Translation, Glossaries — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by translated; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
