ControlAPI

About

ControlAPI is an MCP server designed to transform any OpenAPI or REST API into a set of accessible MCP tools. It simplifies API interaction by allowing users to dynamically connect to different API servers (development, staging, production environments) and manage requests with built-in variable substitution. This tool eliminates the need for complex configurations by guiding users through setup and automatically reloading API schemas, making it a versatile adapter for integrating diverse APIs into an MCP-driven workflow.

Key Features

• Dynamic Server Switching with context tracking and automatic schema reloading
• Cross-platform support for Linux and macOS (Python or WSL for Windows)
• Comprehensive set of built-in tools for server configuration, schema inspection, and request execution
• 4 GitHub stars
• Variable substitution for headers, body, and path parameters (e.g., auth tokens)
• Standalone binary for easy deployment (16MB executable)

Use Cases

• Automating API workflows by storing and reusing authentication tokens or other common variables
• Integrating and interacting with multiple OpenAPI/REST APIs within an MCP environment
• Switching between different API environments (development, staging, production) effortlessly
