arxivSearch
Searches ArXiv papers and translates their titles.
LABSCO SUMMARY
deployHtml is the odd one out and the one that changes what the others are for.
Search, calculate and run-code are the standard gap-fillers. Adding a deploy step means the output of a session becomes a link you can send someone, rather than a code block they have to run themselves. That turns the toolkit from an assistant's scratchpad into something that produces artefacts. The separate arxiv and wikipedia searches are a small good decision too — both reward a targeted query far more than a general web search does.
What it is
302AI's toolkit for the capabilities a model does not have on its own: reaching the web, doing arithmetic reliably, running code, and reading files.
What you get
- Search — webSearch, wikipediaSearch and arxivSearch, plus webCrawl for a specific page
- Compute — calculator, and directRunCode for anything arithmetic cannot cover
- Files — parseFileToText
- Publishing — deployHtml and listHtmlProjects, so a generated page gets a URL
Requirements
Npx. MIT licensed, and this is the vendor's own package. Documentation is available in English, Chinese and Japanese.
Setup effort
One command plus a key — npx -y @302ai/basic-mcp, then supply credentials
USE CASES
01
Filling in what the model cannot do
Reliable arithmetic, real code execution, actual file contents.
02
Looking something up properly
General web, Wikipedia or arXiv, whichever fits the question.
03
Shipping the result
Deploy the generated page and get a URL back.
9 tools
Counted once with only startup setup. Other versions, modes or optional credentials may expose a different list.
calculator
Evaluates a mathematical expression string and returns the result.
deployHtml
Create and host a static webpage by providing HTML content. It returns a URL where the hosted page can be accessed.
directRunCode
Automatically creates a sandbox, executes code, and immediately destroys the sandbox after execution. Optionally exports sandbox files (compresses multiple files into a zip archive if there are multiple files in the specified path, or exports a single file directly). Recommended for use cases that don't require continuous sandbox operations.
listHtmlProjects
List all web projects hosted under the current API key. This tool returns information about hosted web pages including their URLs.
parseFileToText
Provide a file url, parse the file to text, return the text as a string.
webCrawl
If you need to crawl the web for information, you can use this tool. It will crawl the web for the information you need.
webSearch
If you need to search the web for information, you can use this tool. It will search the web for the information you need.
wikipediaSearch
Searches Wikipedia and returns summaries of the top results.
BEFORE YOU INSTALL
What to know first
Tools you get
9 tools when we connected. The tool list loads dynamically from 302.AI, so tools can be added or removed without reinstalling.
Requires
- npx on PATH
- 302AI_API_KEY in your environment
Where it runs
All 3 documented clients run the server on your machine.

}Cherry Studio uses the key as the server's id. The README's block uses the random id "Li2ZXXJkvhAALyKOFeO4N", which is also used in the blocks for other 302.AI servers, so two of them added together would overwrite each other. Here the key is the server's name. <YOUR_AI_API_KEY> is your 302.AI API key from dash.302.ai/apis/list.
