Gramps MCP Server

<!-- mcp-name: io.github.oliverhruby/gramps-mcp -->

Project

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes the full functionality of the Gramps Web API to AI agents such as opencode, Claude, Cursor and any other MCP client. It is published on PyPI as gramps-mcp-full.

Gramps is a free, open-source genealogy program, and Gramps Web ships a REST API (gramps-web-api) that lets you read and operate a family tree — people, families, events, places, sources, citations, notes, media, repositories and tags, plus genealogy compute (merge, timelines, relations, living status, DNA), import/export, reports, transactions and server administration.

This server lets your agent query and operate a Gramps tree directly: full CRUD for all object types, full-text/semantic search, merge objects (phoenix/titanic survival), timelines, relationships, alive estimates, DNA match analysis, a media pipeline (binary upload, file download, thumbnails, OCR, face detection), GEDCOM / Gramps XML import and export with privacy filters, report generation, raw transactions, and admin over users, trees, bookmarks and type vocabularies — including multiple instances (one or more Gramps Web base URLs, each with token/JWT auth).

⚠️ Official API, mutable data. Unlike the EduPage server (which reverse-engineers undocumented endpoints), this uses the official, documented Gramps Web REST API — gramps-web-api, maintained under the gramps-project organization with a published OpenAPI spec at . Use read-only features freely; use the write features (manage, mergeobjects, manageimport, managetransaction, …) carefully — they mutate real tree data.
