Overview
What is OpenEdu MCP Server?
A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides educational resources and supports curriculum planning for educators. It integrates with four educational APIs (Open Library, Wikipedia, Dictionary, arXiv) to deliver books, articles, definitions, and research papers with intelligent filtering and grade-level appropriateness.
How to use OpenEdu MCP Server?
Install Python 3.9+, clone the repository, install dependencies (pip install -r requirements.txt), create a .env file from .env.example, then run python -m src.main. The server exposes 21+ MCP tools accessible via standard I/O, HTTP (POST /mcp with JSON-RPC), or SSE (GET /events). Integration with AI‑assisted coding tools is supported by configuring them to start the server.
