API Evangelist MCP Server

Install the API Evangelist catalog as an MCP server — sixteen years of API research as tools, prompts, and resources, in any MCP client.

Endpoint (streamable HTTP)
https://mcp.apievangelist.com/mcp
Server api-evangelist · registry com.apievangelist/api-evangelist
No API key required for discovery. The research depth is Pro.

Add it to your client

Claude Code

One command in your terminal:

claude mcp add --transport http api-evangelist https://mcp.apievangelist.com/mcp
Cursor · VS Code · Windsurf

Add to your mcp.json (or .vscode/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "api-evangelist": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apievangelist.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
Claude Desktop

Settings → Developer → Edit Config, then bridge the HTTP endpoint with mcp-remote:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "api-evangelist": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.apievangelist.com/mcp"]
    }
  }
}
Any MCP client

The server speaks streamable HTTP MCP at https://mcp.apievangelist.com/mcp. Point any Model Context Protocol client at that URL. For stdio-only clients, wrap it with mcp-remote. The one-click Install as MCP button above uses the API Commons install flow.
