Wraps the Launch Library 2 API so you can query rocket launch data without dealing with authentication or raw HTTP calls. Part of the Pipeworx gateway, which offers a streamable HTTP transport and an ask_pipeworx tool that lets you ask questions in plain English instead of constructing tool calls manually. The underlying API is free and requires no auth, making this a frictionless way to add space launch data to your Claude workflows. You can connect to just the launches endpoint or use the full Pipeworx gateway to access their entire catalog of 250+ data sources. Good fit if you're building anything that needs current or historical launch schedules without maintaining your own API client.
Launches MCP — wraps Launch Library 2 API (ll.thespacedevs.com, free, no auth)
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 673+ live data sources.
| Tool | Description |
|---|
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"launches": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/launches/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Launches data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
