What is the Sapling MCP Server?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants like Claude call external tools and APIs in a structured way. The Sapling MCP Server exposes Sapling's language tools as MCP tools, so you can ask Claude to grammar-check a document, detect AI-generated content, paraphrase a sentence, or analyze sentiment — all without leaving your AI assistant.


Available Tools
