# WavespeedMCP ## [English](README.md) | [中文文档](README.zh.md) WavespeedMCP is a Model Control Protocol (MCP) server implementation for WaveSpeed AI
wavespeed-mcp on PyPI is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.
The server publishes 5 tools. What each one is for:
Prerequisites — The Prerequisites tool exposed by this serverSetup — The Setup tool exposed by this serverTimeouts — WavespeedMCP supports two types of timeouts. Configure them via environment variables:Requirements — The Requirements tool exposed by this serverTesting — The Testing tool exposed by this serverConfiguration is passed through the environment: WAVESPEED_API_KEY, WAVESPEED_LOG_FILE, WAVESPEED_REQUEST_TIMEOUT, WAVESPEED_WAIT_RESULT_TIMEOUT, WAVESPEED_API_HOST, WAVESPEED_MCP_BASE_PATH. 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.
This sits in the AI and media services group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. WavespeedMCP's toolset — Prerequisites, Setup, Timeouts and 2 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by WaveSpeedAI; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
