Overview

MCP-wolfram-alpha is a specialized MCP server that enables integration with Wolfram Alpha's computational intelligence capabilities. It provides both tools for direct API queries and prompts for computational question handling. The server requires an API key configuration through environment variables and offers clear instructions for setup and debugging. While the implementation is straightforward, it focuses specifically on mathematical and computational queries through Wolfram Alpha's powerful engine.

Try asking AI

After installing, here are 5 things you can ask your AI assistant:

you:Perform mathematical calculations and equations through Wolfram Alpha
you:Access computational knowledge and data analysis from Wolfram's knowledge engine
you:Enhance chat assistants with scientific and computational capabilities
you:What API key do I need?
you:Which Wolfram Alpha API does this support?

When to choose this

Choose this when you need to integrate computational intelligence and mathematical calculations into chat-based AI systems.

When NOT to choose this

Avoid if you need free API access or if Wolfram Alpha doesn't cover your specific domain knowledge requirements.

Installation

Installation

  1. Install the required dependencies (Python and uv):

``bash pip install uv ``

  1. Clone the repository:

``bash git clone https://github.com/SecretiveShell/MCP-wolfram-alpha.git cd MCP-wolfram-alpha ``

  1. Set your Wolfram Alpha API key as an environment variable:

``bash export WOLFRAM_API_KEY="your-app-id" ``

  1. Configure Claude Desktop with the following JSON:

``json { "mcpServers": { "MCP-wolfram-alpha": { "command": "uv", "args": [ "--directory", "/path/to/MCP-wolfram-alpha", "run", "MCP-wolfram-alpha" ], "env": { "WOLFRAM_API_KEY": "your-app-id" } } } } ``

FAQ

What API key do I need?
You need an App ID from Wolfram Alpha, available at https://products.wolframalpha.com/api. This is different from a regular API key.
Which Wolfram Alpha API does this support?
This was tested with the full results API, but may work with other Wolfram Alpha API endpoints as well.
