Put your own value in place of <MISTRAL_API_KEY> (Mistral API key from https://console.mistral.ai/. Model-specific usage and rate limits depend on the organization tier). The author’s registry entry marks it as required.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: MISTRAL_BASE_URL (Optional OpenAI-compatible endpoint (vLLM, TGI, LiteLLM, internal gateway). Setting it routes every call there instead of api.mistral.ai and switches the server to the self-hosted profile), MISTRAL_MCP_PROFILE (Tool surface to expose: core (default), admin, workflows, metier-docs, self-hosted. Overrides what MISTRAL_BASE_URL would infer), MISTRAL_DEFAULT_MODEL (Default chat and structured-extraction model when a call omits model. Useful for account-specific availability and self-hosted model ids).

Mistral MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Mistral MCP?
Mistral MCP runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package mistral-mcp was installed 182 times last week.
How do I connect Mistral MCP?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls mistral-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Mistral MCP?
The npm package mistral-mcp was installed 182 times in the last week. Week over week that is -61%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Mistral MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 15 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
