It provides a standard way for AI models to access and orchestrate your APIs running with Apollo. ## Documentation See [the documentation](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-mcp-server/) for full details. This README shows the basics of getting this MCP server running. More details are available on the documentation site. ## Installation You can either build this server from source, if you have Rust installed on your workstation, or you can follow the [installation guide](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-mcp-server/run). To install the latest release from crates.io, run: ```sh cargo install --locked apollo-mcp-server ``` `--locked` builds with the same dependency versions that were tested for the release. To build from this repository instead, run `cargo build` from its root and the server will be built in the `target/debug` directory. ## Getting started Follow the [quickstart tutorial](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-mcp-server/quickstart) to get started with this server. ## Usage Full usage of Apollo MCP Server is documented on the [user guide](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-mcp-server/run). There are a few items that are necessary for this server to function. Specifically, the following things must be configured: 1. A graph for the MCP server to sit in front of. 2. Definitions for the GraphQL operations that should be exposed as MCP tools. 3. A configuration file describing how the MCP server should run. 4. A connection to an MCP client, such as an LLM or [MCP inspector](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/legacy/tools/inspector). These are all described on the user guide. Specific configuration options for the configuration file are documented in the [config file reference](https://www.apollographql.com/docs/apollo-mcp-server/config-file). ## Contributions Checkout the [contributor guidelines](https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-mcp-server/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md) for more information. ## Licensing This project is licensed under the MIT License.
