Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified the GitHub account lars20070 for this listing. That does not show the account is the product's maker.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Local MCP server that wraps WolframScript so an assistant can evaluate Wolfram Language code and inspect the Wolfram Engine installation.

What you can do: Evaluate Wolfram Language scripts through the local wolframscript command line and return the results to the assistant. Query the installed wolframscript version. Query the Wolfram Engine version. Query the Wolfram Engine license type.
When to use it: Useful when you want an assistant to run symbolic math, calculus, or other Wolfram Language computations on your own machine, or to check which Wolfram Engine and wolframscript versions are installed.
Requirements: Runs as a local process on the user's machine (desktop only). Requires WolframScript installed and activated, plus the uv package manager; the README configures it through uvx or a local clone. No API keys or environment variables are declared.

Before you install

The evaluate tool runs arbitrary Wolfram Language code on your machine through wolframscript, so only use it with code you trust. It depends on a locally activated Wolfram Engine license; the README notes Wolfram Engine and WolframScript are free for personal use, but other uses may require a license.

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open Mathematica Mcp in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

Mathematica MCP Server

[codecov] [Build] [Python Version] [License] [PyPI version]

MCP server that wraps Mathematica's wolframscript command-line interface. It provides tools to evaluate Wolfram Language code and retrieve information about the Wolfram Engine installation.

Tool	Description
`evaluate`	Evaluates a Wolfram Language script
`version_wolframscript`	Returns version of `wolframscript`
`version_wolframengine`	Returns version of Wolfram Engine
`licensetype`	Returns license type of Wolfram Engine

Background

Wolfram Language: symbolic programming language e.g. Integrate[x*Sin[x], x]
Wolfram Engine: kernel for running Wolfram Language code
WolframScript: command-line interface to Wolfram Engine
Mathematica: notebook interface to Wolfram Engine

Both Wolfram Engine and WolframScript are freely available for personal use.

Installation

Please ensure WolframScript is installed and activated on your system.

Install the uv package manager.

Edit the Claude Desktop config file and add the mathematica-mcp server. Note that uvx sets up an environment, installs the mathematica-mcp package, and runs the server by calling the mathematica-mcp entry point defined in pyproject.toml. No cloning of the repository is necessary. The logs are written to the default user log directory, e.g. ~/Library/Logs/mathematica_mcp/mathematica_mcp.log on macOS.

Alternatively, you can clone the repository and then modify or extend the MCP server code. In this case, make sure to update the path to the local repository in the Claude Desktop config file.
