What is the Wordware MCP server?

The Wordware MCP (Master Control Program) server allows you to run your Wordware apps locally, with interactive setup. The wordware mcp server wraps that behind the Model Context Protocol, so an assistant can use it rather than through you.

What it actually does

The Wordware MCP (Model Context Protocol) server allows you to run your Wordware apps locally. This enables you to integrate Wordware's powerful AI flows directly into your local development environment, making it easier to test and develop applications that leverage Wordware's capabilities.

Configuration

You will need 2 environment variables: WORDWARE_API_TOKEN, WORDWARE_API_KEY. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

Before using this package, you need: 1. A Wordware account (sign up at wordware.ai) 2. A Wordware API key 3. At least one deployed Wordware app

Adding it to your client

Installation goes through your MCP client rather than a global install: point it at wordware-mcp on npm and it is fetched when the client starts. The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.

When to reach for it

Plenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. It is maintained by yuhuangou; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Caveats

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the wordware mcp server does with a few real requests.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Wordware to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Wordware directly.
