Summary
One tool, two transports, a translation engine that is not the model's own.
There is little surface here, text in and translation out, and that is the point: it is the smallest way to give a client a dedicated translation engine. The Lingvanex account is the gate; the server itself is a thin wrapper.
What it is
An MCP server that exposes Lingvanex machine translation as a single tool, running either over stdio for a desktop client or as a local HTTP server for testing.
What you get
- Text translated with an explicit source and target language (translate_text)
- Stdio transport for desktop clients, and streamable HTTP on a port you set
- A ping endpoint that reports status and transport when running over HTTP
- Debuggable through the MCP Inspector against the local streamable HTTP endpoint
Requirements
Node.js 18 or newer, and a Lingvanex account: the Cloud API key is generated after the billing address is filled in, and the free trial does not require a card.
