Mathematica Documentation MCP server

local-only server

The server can only run on the client’s local machine because it depends on local resources.

Integrations

  • Provides access to Mathematica documentation, allowing users to retrieve documentation for functions, list symbols in packages, and access documentation for add-ons and package functions.

Mathematica Documentation MCP server

General & Usage

Made with FastMCP

Requirements: pip install -r requirements.txt and have Mathematica installed (or at least wolframscript callable from terminal, e.g. via free wolfram engine for developers).

Run fastmcp dev path/to/mcp-mma-doc.py to initialize the server.

Run fastmcp install path/to/mcp-mma-doc.py to install to claude or add following to claude/cline config:

"mathematica-docs": { "command": "uv", "args": [ "run", "--with", "fastmcp", "fastmcp", "run", "/path/to/mcp-mma-doc.py" ] }
  • If you need custom path to wolframscript, you can set via changing line 6 in the python file wolframscript='wolframscript' to wolframscript='/path/to/wolframscript'.

Tools

The plugin provides the following commands:

  • get_docs: support factory functions, function via an addon, and function via a package.
    • Basic usage: get_docs("Plot")
    • With package: get_docs("WeightSystem", packages=["LieART"])
    • With addon: get_docs("FCFeynmanParametrize", packages=["FeynCalc"], load_addons=["FeynArts"])
  • list_package_symbols: list all symbols/functions in a package.
    • Basic usage: list_package_symbols("FeynCalc")

Known issues

  • If you see things like INFO Processing request of type __init__.py:431 ListToolsRequest in cline, you can ignore them as this will not affect it from working, this is due to current incomplete impliementation of the function discription and listing support via current usage of FastMCP.
  • Some MMA docs may contain complex styling format, and is not easy to remove with simple regex, your llm may be influenced by this, please instruct it to ignore the styling format and write in InputForm only.
