What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets AI assistants like Claude Code and Cursor use external tools. Kyma’s MCP server exposes 13+ open-source models as tools.

Install

npm install -g @kyma-api/mcp-server
Or run directly with npx (no install needed):
npx @kyma-api/mcp-server

Claude Code

Add to ~/.claude/settings.json:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kyma": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@kyma-api/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "KYMA_API_KEY": "ky-your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}
Restart Claude Code. You can now use chat and list_models tools.

Cursor

Add to Cursor settings (Settings > MCP):
{
  "kyma": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["@kyma-api/mcp-server"],
    "env": {
      "KYMA_API_KEY": "ky-your-api-key"
    }
  }
}
