Wraps the free Star Wars API at swapi.dev so you can query films, characters, planets, species, starships, and vehicles from the Star Wars universe without dealing with HTTP calls directly. Hosted by Pipeworx as a streamable HTTP gateway, meaning no local install or API keys needed. You can wire it up standalone or use it through the full Pipeworx gateway that bundles 250+ data sources. Includes an ask_pipeworx helper that interprets plain English questions and routes them to the right endpoints automatically. Useful for prototyping, building Star Wars themed demos, or testing MCP integrations with a familiar dataset that won't rate limit you.

idstringSWAPI MCP — wraps the Star Wars API (swapi.dev, 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": {
"swapi": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/swapi/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 Swapi data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
