APIWeaver + MCPOmni-Connect: Complete MCP Integration
APIWeaver is a MCP server that An MCP server that dynamically creates MCP servers from web API configurations. This allows you to easily integrate any REST API, GraphQL endpoint, or web service into an MCP-compatible tool that can be used by AI assistants like Claude..
When integrated with MCPOmni-Connect, you can:
- Register and configure APIs at runtime without server restart
- Support for REST APIs, GraphQL endpoints, and web services
- Multiple authentication methods for different API requirements
This guide provides step-by-step instructions to set up APIWeaver in MCPOmni-Connect, including configuration, examples, and troubleshooting.
What You'll Achieve
After completing this setup:
- APIWeaver will be fully integrated and operational
- You can use APIWeaver tools directly in MCPOmni-Connect
- All APIWeaver capabilities will be available for your workflows
- Access to 6 different tools
Prerequisites
Before starting, ensure you have:
- MCPOmni-Connect installed and configured
- Compatible operating system (Python 3.9+, Windows, macOS, Linux, Docker)
Installation
Step 1: Install APIWeaver
Configuration
Step 2: Configure MCPOmni-Connect
- Open MCPOmni-Connect settings
- Navigate to MCP server configuration
- Add APIWeaver server with appropriate settings
- Save and restart if needed
Examples
Once configured, you can use APIWeaver in MCPOmni-Connect:
Register REST API with Authentication
Add a REST API with Bearer token authentication
Ask MCPOmni-Connect: "Register the JSONPlaceholder API (https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com) with GET and POST methods"
Expected Result: API registered successfully with auto-generated tools for posts, users, and comments endpoints
GraphQL Endpoint Integration
Connect to a GraphQL API for data querying
Ask MCPOmni-Connect: "Register the GitHub GraphQL API with authentication and create tools for repository queries"
Expected Result: GraphQL endpoint configured with query tools for repositories, issues, and user data
API Testing and Validation
Test API connectivity before integration
Ask MCPOmni-Connect: "Test connection to the Stripe API with my API key before registering it"
Expected Result: Connection test successful with API schema validation and endpoint verification
Multi-API Workflow
Integrate multiple APIs for complex workflows
Ask MCPOmni-Connect: "Register both Twitter API and SendGrid API to create a workflow for social media monitoring and email alerts"
Expected Result: Both APIs registered with tools for tweet monitoring, email sending, and automated workflow execution
Testing Your Setup
- Launch MCPOmni-Connect
- Verify APIWeaver is available in the tools list
- Test basic APIWeaver functionality
Troubleshooting
Common Issues
API Registration Failed
Symptoms: Registration errors, Invalid API configuration, Connection timeouts
Cause: Incorrect API URL, authentication issues, or network problems
Solution:
- Verify API endpoint URL is accessible
- Check authentication credentials are valid
- Test API manually with curl or Postman first
- Ensure network connectivity and firewall settings
Authentication Not Working
Symptoms: 401 Unauthorized, 403 Forbidden, Auth token invalid
Cause: Incorrect authentication method or invalid credentials
Solution:
- Verify authentication method matches API requirements
- Check API key/token is not expired
- Confirm header format and parameter names
- Test authentication with API documentation examples
Transport Mode Not Connecting
Symptoms: Connection refused, Transport errors, Client not recognizing server
Cause: Incorrect transport configuration or port conflicts
Solution:
- Use streamable-http for modern clients
- Check port is not in use: netstat -an | grep :8000
- Verify host/port settings match client configuration
- Try different transport modes (stdio/http/sse)
Python Dependencies Missing
Symptoms: Import errors, Module not found, Package installation failures
Cause: Missing Python packages or virtual environment issues
Solution:
- Install requirements: pip install -r requirements.txt
- Create virtual environment: python -m venv apiweaver-env
- Activate environment before installation
- Upgrade pip: python -m pip install --upgrade pip
API Schema Generation Failed
Symptoms: Tool generation errors, Schema parsing failures, Endpoint mapping issues
Cause: Unsupported API format or incomplete API documentation
Solution:
- Provide OpenAPI/Swagger specification if available
- Start with simple GET endpoints first
- Manually configure complex APIs step by step
- Check API documentation for required parameters
Command Not Found
Symptoms: mcpomni-connect: command not found, CLI not accessible
Cause: Package not installed or not in PATH
Solution:
- Verify installation: pip show mcpomni-connect
- Ensure Python scripts directory is in PATH
- Try running with python -m: python -m mcpomni_connect
- Reinstall: pip install --upgrade mcpomni-connect
Configuration File Not Found
Symptoms: FileNotFoundError: mcp_config.yaml, Config not loading
Cause: Config file missing or incorrect path
Solution:
- Verify config file exists at specified path
- Use absolute path: --config /full/path/to/mcp_config.yaml
- Check file name is exactly mcp_config.yaml (case-sensitive)
- Validate YAML syntax with yamllint or online validator
MCP Server Connection Failures
Symptoms: Server not responding, Connection timeout, Transport error
Cause: Invalid server configuration or transport issues
Solution:
- Verify transport type matches server capabilities (stdio, sse, http, docker, npx)
- For stdio: ensure command and args are correct
- For SSE/HTTP: verify URL is accessible and server is running
- For Docker: ensure Docker daemon is running and image exists
- Check environment variables are set (e.g., GITHUB_TOKEN)
- Test server manually outside MCPOmni-Connect
Agent Mode Not Working
Symptoms: Agent fails to execute task, Reasoning loop errors, Tool calls failing
Cause: Insufficient LLM configuration or tool access issues
Solution:
- Ensure LLM API key is configured (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.)
- Verify agent has access to necessary MCP server tools
- Check task description is clear and actionable
- Review agent logs for detailed error messages
- Try simpler task first to verify agent functionality
Orchestrator Mode Failures
Symptoms: Plan execution fails, Step coordination errors, Agent communication issues
Cause: Invalid plan structure or agent dependencies
Solution:
- Verify plan steps are clearly defined and sequential
- Ensure each step can be completed with available tools
- Check inter-agent communication is working
- Review orchestrator logs for step-by-step execution details
- Test individual plan steps in agent mode first
Docker Transport Errors
Symptoms: Container not starting, Docker connection refused, Port binding errors
Cause: Docker configuration or runtime issues
Solution:
- Verify Docker is installed and running: docker ps
- Check Docker image exists: docker images
- Ensure ports are not already in use
- Review container logs: docker logs <container_name>
- Verify network configuration allows container communication
FastAPI Integration Issues
Symptoms: Import errors, Async execution failures, Endpoint not responding
Cause: Incorrect async configuration or FastAPI version mismatch
Solution:
- Use run_agent_async() for async FastAPI endpoints
- Ensure FastAPI version is compatible (0.100.0+)
- Verify MCPOmniClient is initialized outside request handlers
- Check async event loop configuration
- Review FastAPI logs for detailed error messages
APIWeaver not appearing in MCPOmni-Connect
Symptoms: Server not listed, Tools not available
Cause: Configuration or installation issue
Solution:
- Verify configuration syntax
- Check APIWeaver installation
- Restart MCPOmni-Connect
- Check logs for error messages
