• Answer complicated mathematical questions
• Query facts about science, physics, history, geography, and more
• Get structured responses optimized for LLM consumption
• Support for simplified answers and detailed responses with sections

Available Tools

• ask_llm: Ask WolframAlpha a question and get a structured llm-friendly response
• get_simple_answer: Get a simplified answer
• validate_key: Validate the WolframAlpha API key

Installation

git clone https://github.com/Garoth/wolframalpha-llm-mcp.git
npm install

Configuration

1. Get your WolframAlpha API key from developer.wolframalpha.com 

2. Add it to your Cline MCP settings file inside VSCode’s settings (ex. ~/.config/Code/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "wolframalpha": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/wolframalpha-mcp-server/build/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "WOLFRAM_LLM_APP_ID": "your-api-key-here"
      },
      "disabled": false,
      "autoApprove": [
        "ask_llm",
        "get_simple_answer",
        "validate_key"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Development

Setting Up Tests

The tests use real API calls to ensure accurate responses. To run the tests:

1. Copy the example environment file:

   cp .env.example .env

2. Edit .env and add your WolframAlpha API key:

   WOLFRAM_LLM_APP_ID=your-api-key-here

   Note: The .env file is gitignored to prevent committing sensitive information.

3. Run the tests:

   npm test

Building

npm run build
