- Dynamic loading of OpenAPI specifications into LangChain agents
- CLI mode for debugging without the MCP server
- MCP server with SSE transport on a configurable port
- Custom Langflow components: OpenApi Service and Hippycampus MCP Server
- Supports testing with a fixed XKCD OpenAPI spec

Setting up with Highlight

This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:

  1. Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
  2. Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
  3. Configure the plugin with the settings below
    Plugin Name Hippycampus
    Command (node, npx, python, etc.) npx
    Arguments
    • Argument 1 -y
    • Argument 2 @highlight/mcp-server

    Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.

  4. Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches

A LangChain-based CLI and MCP server that supports dynamic loading of OpenAPI specifications and integration with Langflow.

- Python 3.12.9
- UV package manager
- Google AI Studio API key
- Langflow (for visual workflow creation)

# 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

- VisitGoogle AI Studio
- Click "Create API Key" in the top right
- Copy the generated key and set it as an environment variable:

export GOOGLE_API_KEY='your-api-key-here'
uv run hippycampus-server --transport sse --port 8000

Ensure the MCP server is running before starting Langflow.
- Set the components path environment variable:

# Get your current working directory pwd # Use the output to set the components path export LANGFLOW_COMPONENTS_PATH="/output/from/pwd/langflow/components"

- Start the Langflow server (add --dev for development mode):
- Open your browser and navigate tohttp://localhost:7860
-

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

- OpenApi Service: Usehttps://raw.githubusercontent.com/APIs-guru/unofficial_openapi_specs/master/xkcd.com/1.0.0/openapi.yamlfor testing
- MCP Server: Usehttp://localhost:8000/sse

See the Screencast Demo for a visual guide.Screencast Demo

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.

- Authentication errors: Check ifGOOGLE_API_KEYis set correctly
- Missing components in Langflow: VerifyLANGFLOW_COMPONENTS_PATHpoints 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.
