The Sefaria MCP
Plug your LLM of choice into Sefaria's rich library of Jewish texts via our MCP server: https://mcp.sefaria.org/sse
The Sefaria MCP (Model Context Protocol) server connects your favorite AI tools directly to Sefaria's vast library of Jewish texts.
What is MCP?
MCP is a standardized way for LLMs to connect to external data sources and APIs. It's a bridge that lets your AI chat with databases, search engines, and specialized libraries.
Sefaria MCP
Sefaria has just launched an MCP which allows your AI assistant of choice to converse directly with the Sefaria library. This means your LLM can search and retrieve any text from our database, and return a response with precise citations to specific sources.
