BabelWrap MCP Server

An MCP server that gives AI agents web browsing superpowers via the BabelWrap API.

Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, and any MCP-compatible client.

Installation

# Using uvx (recommended -- no install required)
uvx babelwrap-mcp

# Using pip
pip install babelwrap-mcp

# Using pipx (isolated environment)
pipx install babelwrap-mcp

Setup

1. Get an API Key

Sign up at babelwrap.com and create an API key from your dashboard.

2. Configure Your MCP Client

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "babelwrap": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["babelwrap-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "BABELWRAP_API_KEY": "bw_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

If you installed with pip or pipx, use the binary directly:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "babelwrap": {
      "command": "babelwrap-mcp",
      "args": [],
      "env": {
        "BABELWRAP_API_KEY": "bw_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

claude mcp add babelwrap -- uvx babelwrap-mcp

Then set your API key as an environment variable:

export BABELWRAP_API_KEY="bw_your_api_key_here"
