Question 1

What is an MCP Server?

Accepted Answer

MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server acts as a bridge, allowing AI models to access and interact with external data sources and tools through a standardized protocol. It helps AI models interact with external APIs using Simple Language.

Question 2

How does the UBOS MCP Server work?

Accepted Answer

The UBOS MCP Server reads an OpenAPI specification file and exposes each API operation as a tool that AI models like Claude can use. It automatically parses the OpenAPI file, generates tools for each operation, and handles API calls when the AI model interacts with the tools.

Question 3

What are the benefits of using the UBOS MCP Server?

Accepted Answer

The benefits include simplified AI integration with external APIs, automatic tool generation, handling of various API parameter types, live API call support, easy integration with AI models, intelligent error recovery, and API key authentication support.

Question 4

What is OpenAPI?

Accepted Answer

OpenAPI is a standard, language-agnostic interface to REST APIs which allows both humans and computers to discover and understand the capabilities of the service without access to source code, documentation, or through network traffic inspection.

Question 5

What kind of APIs can I connect to using the MCP Server?

Accepted Answer

You can connect to any API that has an OpenAPI v3.1 specification. This includes both local and remote server APIs.

Question 6

Do I need to write code to integrate APIs with the MCP Server?

Accepted Answer

No, you don't need to write custom code for each API interaction. The MCP Server automatically generates the necessary tools and interfaces based on the OpenAPI specification.

Question 7

What environment variables can I configure for the MCP Server?

Accepted Answer

You can configure environment variables such as `DEBUG` to enable debug logging, `OPENAPI_FILE` to specify the path to your OpenAPI YAML file, and `HTTP_HEADERS_X_API_KEY` for API key authentication.

Question 8

Is the UBOS MCP Server secure?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the server handles API keys securely through environment variables, includes input validation for all API parameters, provides error handling to prevent information leakage, and utilizes YAML parsing with error recovery.

Question 9

How do I test the UBOS MCP Server?

Accepted Answer

The project includes comprehensive unit and integration tests. You can run all tests using `npm test`, run tests in watch mode using `npm run test:watch`, or run tests with coverage using `npm run test:coverage`.

Question 10

Where can I find the OpenAPI specification for my API?

Accepted Answer

The location of the OpenAPI specification depends on the API provider. You can usually find it in the API documentation or by contacting the API provider directly.

Question 11

What is UBOS?

Accepted Answer

UBOS is a full-stack AI Agent Development Platform that helps businesses orchestrate AI Agents, connect them with enterprise data, build custom AI Agents with their LLM model, and create Multi-Agent Systems.

Question 12

How does UBOS differ from other AI Agent development platforms?

Accepted Answer

UBOS stands out through its focus on full-stack development, enterprise data connectivity, custom AI Agent building with your own LLMs, and Multi-Agent Systems orchestration.

Question 13

How can I use UBOS for my business?

Accepted Answer
