Summary
Brings Wolfram Language computation directly into Claude through WolframScript's command-line interface. You get four tools: evaluate arbitrary Wolfram Language code, check WolframScript and Wolfram Engine versions, and query your license type. This is for when you need symbolic math, scientific computing, or any of Wolfram's computational capabilities without leaving your Claude conversation. Requires a local WolframScript installation, which is free for personal use. The evaluate tool takes raw Wolfram Language expressions like Integrate[x*Sin[x], x] and returns results. Installation is straightforward with uvx, no repository cloning needed unless you want to modify the server itself.
Keep your Mac awake while Claude Code and 40+ AI agents run. Sleeps when they're idle.

Mathematica MCP Server
MCP server that wraps Mathematica's wolframscript command-line interface. It provides tools to evaluate Wolfram Language code and retrieve information about the Wolfram Engine installation.
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
evaluate | Evaluates a Wolfram Language script |
version_wolframscript | Returns version of wolframscript |
version_wolframengine | Returns version of Wolfram Engine |
licensetype | Returns license type of Wolfram Engine |
Background
- Wolfram Language: symbolic programming language e.g.
Integrate[x*Sin[x], x] - Wolfram Engine: kernel for running Wolfram Language code
- WolframScript: command-line interface to Wolfram Engine
- Mathematica: notebook interface to Wolfram Engine
Both Wolfram Engine and WolframScript are freely available for personal use.
Installation
- Please ensure WolframScript is installed and activated on your system.
wolframscript -version
wolframscript -activate
wolframscript -code "Integrate[x*Sin[x], x]"
- Install the uv package manager.
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
- Edit the Claude Desktop config file and add the
mathematica-mcpserver. Note thatuvxsets up an environment, installs themathematica-mcppackage, and runs the server by calling themathematica-mcpentry point defined inpyproject.toml. No cloning of the repository is necessary. The logs are written to the default user log directory, e.g.~/Library/Logs/mathematica_mcp/mathematica_mcp.logon macOS.

}

Claude Desktop config file on macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
- Alternatively, you can clone the repository and then modify or extend the MCP server code. In this case, make sure to update the path to the local repository in the Claude Desktop config file.

"command": "uv",
