New tool converts REST APIs to AI agent-readable MCP format

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A new tool has been released that converts existing REST APIs into a format usable by AI agents. This conversion process leverages the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to expose APIs as discoverable, typed tools that agents can understand and call. The tool takes OpenAPI or Swagger specifications and generates MCP tool definitions, a discovery manifest, and a runnable Node.js MCP server that proxies calls to the original REST API. AI

IMPACT Enables AI agents to interact with a wider range of existing services and data sources.

RANK_REASON Release of a tool that bridges existing APIs to AI agent protocols.
