Quantum OpenQASM MCP tools (10, 2 write)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

  • cancel_jobwrite action

    Cancel a queued or running quantum job.

  • check_credentials

    Check which IBM Quantum env vars are set (masked) and test IBM IAM connectivity.

  • get_backend

    Get details for a specific IBM Quantum backend by name.

  • get_backend_configuration

    Get gate set and coupling configuration for a backend (useful for ISA circuit prep).

  • get_job_result

    Get job status and results in one call (legacy combined tool).

  • get_job_results

    Get measurement results from a completed quantum job.

  • get_job_status

    Get the current status of a quantum job without fetching full results.

  • list_backends

    List available IBM Quantum backends with name, status, and qubit count.

  • list_jobs

    List recent quantum jobs submitted by this account.

  • submit_qasm_jobwrite action

    Submit an OpenQASM 2.0 ISA circuit to IBM Quantum hardware via SamplerV2.

Install Quantum OpenQASM MCP in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y @markusvankempen/quantum-openqasm-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.
