Hippycampus MCP Server

# Hippycampus A LangChain-based CLI and MCP server that supports dynamic loading of OpenAPI specifications and integration with Langflow. ## Prerequisites - Python 3.12.9 - UV package manager - Google AI Studio API key - Langflow (for visual workflow creation) ## Installation ```bash # Install UV if you haven't already curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh # Create and activate virtual environment uv venv source .venv/bin/activate # On Windows use: .venv\Scripts\activate # Install hippycampus and its dependencies uv pip install -e . # Install langflow uv pip install langflow ``` ## Configuration ### Google AI Studio API Key 1. Visit [Google AI Studio](https://makersuite.google.com/app/apikey) 2. Click "Create API Key" in the top right 3. Copy the generated key and set it as an environment variable: ```bash export GOOGLE_API_KEY='your-api-key-here' ``` ## Running the Applications ### CLI Mode (no MCP server) ```bash uv run hippycampus-cli ``` ### MCP Server Mode (SSE) ```bash uv run hippycampus-server --transport sse --port 8000 ``` ### Langflow Server Ensure the MCP server is running before starting Langflow. 1. Set the components path environment variable: ```bash # Get your current working directory pwd # Use the output to set the components path export LANGFLOW_COMPONENTS_PATH="/output/from/pwd/langflow/components" ``` 2. Start the Langflow server (add --dev for development mode): ```bash uv run langflow run ``` 3. Open your browser and navigate to `http://localhost:7860` ### Using Custom Components in Langflow 1. In the Langflow UI, locate the custom components: - OpenApi Service: For loading OpenAPI specifications - Hippycampus MCP Server: For connecting to the MCP server over SSE 2. Configure the components: - OpenApi Service: Use `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/APIs-guru/unofficial_openapi_specs/master/xkcd.com/1.0.0/openapi.yaml` for testing - MCP Server: Use `http://localhost:8000/sse` See the Screencast Demo for a visual guide. [Screencast Demo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ki5A7PvRQwQ) **Note that the official XKCD swagger files contain an error and specify the comic_id field as a number instead of an integer, there is a fixed version in the test folder.** ## Troubleshooting - Authentication errors: Check if `GOOGLE_API_KEY` is set correctly - Missing components in Langflow: Verify `LANGFLOW_COMPONENTS_PATH` points to the correct directory - Connection issues: Ensure the MCP server is running before connecting via Langflow - If components don't appear in Langflow, try restarting the Langflow server - Use the cli to debug openapi_builder/spec_parser and agent interaction issues before running in MCP/Langflow. ## License MIT License Copyright (c) 2024 Ray Cromwell Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all copies or substantial portions of the Software.
