Mistral MCP
mistral-mcp exposes the full Mistral AI API as a set of MCP tools, resources, and prompts. An MCP client (Claude Code, Cursor, etc.) can call mistral_ocr to extract text from a PDF, voxtral_transcribe to transcribe a meeting recording, or workflow_execute to start a durable multi-step process - all without leaving the agent loop. Its 13 documented tools cover connectors, mistral, workflow.
People connecting communication tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install Mistral MCP
before you install - you'll need
Set MISTRAL_API_KEY before connecting. MISTRAL_MCP_PROFILE is optional or environment-specific per the README.
Claude Code
claude mcp add swih-mistral-mcp -- npx -y mistral-mcp Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
{
"mcpServers": {
"swih-mistral-mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mistral-mcp"
]
}
}
} Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Security posture
What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.
runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions

npm package mistral-mcp - unscoped; check the name against the project README before installing
registry namespace io.github.Swih is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
03 · What Mistral MCP can do
Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.
What you can build
With this server connected, an agent can start a Mistral Workflow (Temporal-backed durable execution), fetch one connector's public metadata (never credentials), and list the MCP tools a connector exposes, with their input schema.

06 · Mistral MCP FAQ
Is Mistral MCP still maintained?
Yes - as of 2026-08-25, its last commit was 2026-07-01. We re-verify nightly.
What can Mistral MCP do?
With this server connected, an agent can start a Mistral Workflow (Temporal-backed durable execution), fetch one connector's public metadata (never credentials), and list the MCP tools a connector exposes, with their input schema.
How do I install Mistral MCP?
Run `npx -y mistral-mcp`. The README documents 2 environment variables (MISTRAL_API_KEY, MISTRAL_MCP_PROFILE) to set first. Set MISTRAL_API_KEY before connecting. MISTRAL_MCP_PROFILE is optional or environment-specific per the README. You can also paste the ready-made client config above.
Does Mistral MCP run locally?
Yes - it's a stdio server: it runs on your machine (via npx) with your user's permissions. Your data stays local unless the server itself calls external APIs.
