A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for managing Lokalise translation keys with TypeScript support
If you want an AI assistant working directly with MCP Lokalise, the mcp lokalise mcp server is the bridge. A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for managing Lokalise translation keys with TypeScript support.
A Minimal Command-line Program (MCP) server for adding translation keys to your Lokalise projects, designed for integration with Cursor or standalone use.
Once connected, the assistant can call this tool directly:
Requirements — The Requirements tool exposed by this serverThe server is distributed via npm as lokalise-mcp-server, so most clients can run it without a manual build step. Add it to your MCP client's configuration and restart the client to pick it up — the copy-paste configs for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are on this page.
Before the server will start you need to supply one environment variable: LOKALISE_API_KEY. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than committing them.
Developer-tool servers are usually the first ones people connect, because they turn "help me with this code" into an assistant that can actually read the repo and act on it. MCP Lokalise sits in that group, and the shape of its toolset — Requirements — tells you what it is really for. Worth comparing against the other developer tools servers in this directory before you commit to one, since several overlap in scope but differ sharply in setup cost and permissions.
