Features
- Predefined servers for common use cases (general computation, Wolfram|Alpha queries, development)
- Semantic search across Wolfram documentation and Wolfram|Alpha results
- Code evaluation with Wolfram Language directly in AI conversations
- Notebook support for reading and writing Wolfram notebooks
- Custom servers with tailored tools for specific needs
- Wide client support including Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, and more
- MCP prompts for enhanced context and workflows
- MCP Apps for interactive UI resources in supported clients (e.g., embedded notebook viewers, Wolfram|Alpha result displays)
- Agent Skills for distributing Wolfram tools as portable skills to AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, VS Code, and more)
- Paclet extensions allowing third-party paclets to contribute MCP tools, prompts, and servers via the
"AgentTools"extension
Requirements
- Wolfram Language 14.3 or higher
- An MCP-compatible client application (see Supported Clients)
- Optional: LLMKit subscription for enhanced semantic search capabilities
Installation
Install the Paclet
PacletInstall["Wolfram/AgentTools"]
Load the Package
Needs["Wolfram`AgentTools`"]
Quick Start
Install a Wolfram MCP server for Claude Desktop:
InstallMCPServer["ClaudeDesktop"]
(* Out: Success["InstallMCPServer", <|...|>] *)
After restarting Claude Desktop, it will have access to Wolfram knowledge and tools:
To install a specific server type:
InstallMCPServer["ClaudeDesktop", "WolframLanguage"]
To uninstall:
UninstallMCPServer["ClaudeDesktop"] (* Remove all servers *)
UninstallMCPServer["ClaudeDesktop", "Wolfram"] (* Remove specific server *)
Predefined Servers
AgentTools includes four predefined server configurations, each optimized for different use cases:
| Server | Best For | Tools |
|---|---|---|
| Wolfram (default) | General-purpose use combining computational power with natural language | WolframContext, WolframLanguageEvaluator, WolframAlpha |
| WolframAlpha | Natural language queries without code execution | WolframAlphaContext*, WolframAlpha |
| WolframLanguage | Wolfram Language development and learning | WolframLanguageContext, WolframLanguageEvaluator, ReadNotebook, WriteNotebook, SymbolDefinition, CodeInspector, TestReport |
| WolframPacletDevelopment | Developing and maintaining Wolfram paclets | All WolframLanguage tools plus documentation tools (CreateSymbolDoc, EditSymbolDoc, EditSymbolDocExamples) |
*Requires LLMKit subscription
Install a specific server:
InstallMCPServer["ClaudeDesktop", "WolframLanguage"]
See docs/servers.md for detailed information about each server and guidance on choosing the right one.
