@lstpsche/apidog-mcp

MCP server for managing Apidog API documentation. Provides 22 tools for importing, exporting, diffing, analyzing, and bulk-editing OpenAPI specs and endpoint cases via the Model Context Protocol.

Quick Start

npx @lstpsche/apidog-mcp

Configuration

Option A: Project-level config file (recommended)

Create .apidog.json in your project root:

{
  "accessToken": "adgp_your_token_here",
  "projectId": "1234567",
  "modules": {
    "backend": 1234,
    "payments": 5678
  }
}

Add .apidog.json to your .gitignore to keep secrets out of version control.

Then configure your MCP client (e.g. .cursor/mcp.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apidog": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@lstpsche/apidog-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Multi-project config

To manage multiple Apidog projects from a single config, use the projects array:

{
  "accessToken": "adgp_your_token_here",
  "projects": [
    {
      "name": "main",
      "projectId": "1234567",
      "modules": {
        "backend": 1234,
        "payments": 5678
      }
    },
    {
      "name": "staging",
      "projectId": "7654321",
      "modules": {
        "default": 9999
      }
    }
  ]
}

Each project has a name used to target it in tool calls via the project parameter. When only one project is configured, the project parameter is optional and defaults automatically.

The single-project format (with top-level projectId and modules) is still fully supported and treated as a single project named "default".

Option B: Environment variables

Set these in your shell or CI environment:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apidog": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@lstpsche/apidog-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "APIDOG_ACCESS_TOKEN": "${APIDOG_ACCESS_TOKEN}",
        "APIDOG_PROJECT_ID": "${APIDOG_PROJECT_ID}",
        "APIDOG_MODULES": "${APIDOG_MODULES}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Environment variables define a single project named "default". They can be combined with a multi-project .apidog.json — the env-var project overrides any file-based project with the same name.

Config file resolution

The server locates .apidog.json using the following strategy:

1. APIDOG_CONFIG_PATH env var — if set, uses this explicit file path

2. Upward directory walk — searches from process.cwd() upward through parent directories until .apidog.json is found (similar to how Node resolves package.json)

3. Env-only fallback — if no file is found, falls back to environment variables

This means .apidog.json works reliably even when the MCP server is started from a subdirectory or by a plugin that doesn't set the working directory to the project root.

Resolution order

Environment variables take precedence over .apidog.json for the "default" project. You can mix both — for example, keep projectId and modules in .apidog.json and set APIDOG_ACCESS_TOKEN via environment for security.

Where to find your credentials

• Access Token: Apidog > Account Settings > API Access Tokens

• Project ID: Open your project > Settings > Basic Settings

• Module IDs: Each module's settings page within your Apidog project

Tools (22)

All tools accept an optional project parameter to target a specific project in multi-project configurations. When only one project is configured, this parameter can be omitted.

Architecture

A single server instance can manage multiple Apidog projects and modules. Pass the module name (e.g. "backend", "payments") to each tool call — the server resolves it to the correct module ID. For multi-project setups, also pass the project name (e.g. "main", "staging").

Limitations

Apidog's public API is limited in scope. The following functionality is not available through this MCP server due to missing API support:

These limitations are inherent to the Apidog API as of March 2026. The MCP server implements workarounds where possible (noted above).
