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 peter-j-thompson 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

A local MCP server that lets an assistant search and discover APIs across many providers using natural language queries.

What you can do: Search and discover APIs by describing what you need in natural language, across a catalog of 163+ providers with auto-discovery. No individual tools are listed in the manifest, so the exact operations are not documented here.
When to use it: Useful when you want an assistant to find a suitable API for a task instead of browsing provider directories by hand, or when working across many API providers and needing discovery rather than a single fixed integration.
Requirements: Runs as a local process on the user's machine, installed from the PyPI package semanticapi-mcp over stdio. Requires a Semantic API key supplied through the SEMANTIC_API_KEY environment variable. Desktop only; no web executable.

Before you install

The server requires a secret API key (SEMANTIC_API_KEY) that is sent to the Semantic API service; keep it out of shared logs and configuration. Queries are sent to a third-party service, so avoid including sensitive information in search text. No tools are listed, so review what it can do before installing.

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open Semantic API 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.

Tools

SourceWeft has not started this package in its sandbox yet, so its tools are not known.

25% of the applicable checks met

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
