Summary
A simple wrapper around the ZenQuotes API that gives you inspirational quotes without authentication. You get three tools: pull a random quote, fetch today's quote of the day, or grab a batch of 50 quotes at once. It's hosted via Pipeworx's gateway, so you can add it with just a URL in your MCP config. Useful if you're building a CLI tool, daily standup bot, or just want to pepper your agent with motivational content. The API is free and requires no keys, making it one of the easiest MCP servers to drop into a project when you need quote data.
Keep your Mac awake while Claude Code and 40+ AI agents run. Sleeps when they're idle.

Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"zenquotes": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/zenquotes/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Zenquotes data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
