SPDX License List MCP

Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 673+ live data sources.

Tools

Tool	Description
`list_licenses`	List SPDX licenses with optional filters (OSI-approved, FSF Free/Libre, deprecated).
`get_license`	Get metadata + descriptors for one SPDX license id (e.g. "MIT", "Apache-2.0", "GPL-3.0-or-later").
`get_license_text`	Get the full license text for a single SPDX license id (returns standard text + cross-references).
`search`	Substring search across SPDX id and full license name (case-insensitive).

Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "spdx-license": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/spdx-license/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pipeworx": {
      "url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:

ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Spdx License data" })

The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
