MCP Wolfram Alpha Server is an MCP project maintained in the cnosuke/mcp-wolfram-alpha repository. The maintainer describes its purpose as “MCP Wolfram Alpha Server is a Go-based MCP server that provides access to the Wolfram Alpha API. It allows MCP clients (e.g., Claude Desktop) to…”. Read the project documentation for the complete scope.
The project provides a local client configuration using /path/to/bin/mcp-wolfram-alpha. Follow the repository’s build and installation steps before copying it, and replace example paths with the paths on your own computer.
The example declares LOG_PATH, WOLFRAM_APP_ID. Secret-looking values have been replaced with placeholders. Required and optional labels are shown only when the documentation states them.
