Lexifye

Lexifye — dictionary and glossary building MCP server for Claude, Cursor and any MCP client

Lexifye keeps the words you study — your senses, your references, the Hebrew and Greek behind them — as a real dictionary with revision history, and turns the same entries into a print-ready book. It runs as a hosted MCP server over HTTPS.

The shape

Dictionary → entry (lemma) → definition (sense). Three levels, and the tool names say definition_* where the reading register says "sense".

Round-trippable markup. The source grammar satisfies parse(render(x)) == x, so a definition can be read out, edited and written back without drift.

Strong's enrichment from Darash. Cite [H2617] in a definition and the lemma, SBL transliteration and gloss are written in for you.

Seven formats from one source — light PDF, dark PDF, a 6×9″ print interior, EPUB 3, an HTML reader, LaTeX and JSON.

Sixteen typesettable scripts, three right-to-left (Hebrew, Arabic, Persian), with real bidirectional typesetting and a glyph gate that fails loudly rather than shipping tofu.

Version history, diff and revert per definition, plus guest editors with instant revoke.

A note on visibility: dictionary artifacts are credentialled. There is no public shareable reader URL, by design.

What the tools do

Every tool is documented with its exact description, annotations and input schema — 59 in all, generated from the service's own tools/list, never written by hand.

Machine-readable: tools.json carries all 59 callable tools (59 capability, 0 session/cache) with full JSON Schema, plus every excluded bucket listed by name so the count is auditable.

Plans

Lexifye is sold on its own, bundled with Junifye, and in the Complete Trio (Darash + Junifye + Lexifye, USD 24 a month or USD 216 a year), with a free trial. Current plans and prices are on https://lexifye.publifye.com, which is the only place they are authoritative; other prices are deliberately not duplicated here.

Written about this work

• Two arks, one word — Norwegian calls Noah's vessel an ark and Moses' basket a kiste; Hebrew uses one word for both. Multiply that across thirty-six languages and you have the reason this service exists. Also in Norwegian, Spanish, Chinese and Korean.
