cd apimatic-validator-mcp

Install Dependencies

npm install

Build the Project

npm run build

Configuration

To use the server, an APIMatic API key is required. Sign up at APIMatic and obtain the API key.

Integration with Claude Desktop

Modify the claude_desktop_config.json file to integrate the MCP server. If the file does not exist, create one in the following location:

Windows

code $env:AppData\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

macOS/Linux

code ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

Add the MCP Server to the Configuration

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "APIMatic": {
            "command": "node",
            "args": [
                "C:\\PATH\\TO\\PARENT\\FOLDER\\build\\index.js"
            ],
            "env": {
                "APIMATIC_API_KEY": "<Add your APIMatic token here>"
            }
        }
    }
}

Once configured, a hammer icon should appear in Claude Desktop. Open it to verify that the validate-openapi-using-apimatic tool is successfully integrated.

Usage

1. Add an OpenAPI file.
2. Provide a prompt to validate it.
3. The validation results will be returned.
