mcpify converts OpenAPI specs to MCP tools with lazy loading
BeneficialPenalty589 · reddit · 2026-08-30
A developer released mcpify, an open-source tool that converts OpenAPI REST APIs into MCP tools for AI agents with a single command. It includes production-ready features like Auth, OAuth2, retry, caching, and health checks. Its 'lazy mode' significantly reduces context usage by calling tools on demand (dropping from 38k to 1.7k chars in one test). Built on Python stdlib, it includes 294 tests and supports both stdio and HTTP.
