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)

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"
