word
create_word_alignment
Create a shareable Word Aligner diagram that shows which words match across two or more stacked lines of text (a translation and its source, an interlinear gloss, IPA, etc.). Returns a URL that opens the interactive diagram, plus a preview image. Use this when the user wants to translate a phrase and show word correspondences, align a translation with its source (including RTL scripts like Hebrew or Arabic), or build a Leipzig-style interlinear gloss. Word indices are 0-based token positions. Tokenize each line the same way the tool does before assigning indices: - Whitespace always splits ("I have been going" -> I[0] have[1] been[2] going[3]). - The characters in settings.tokenSplitChars (default ".-|") also split and are then removed from the rendered text, so "go.PST.IPFV" becomes three tokens (go, PST, IPFV) and the dots disappear. For Leipzig glosses set tokenSplitChars to "-|" to keep the dots. - Punctuation stays attached by default ("Hello, world!" -> Hello,[0] world![1]). - In RTL lines, word 0 is the logically first word (rightmost on screen); index in reading order. Each alignment is [lineA, wordA, lineB, wordB]; the two lines must be vertically adjacent (|lineA - lineB| = 1). To express many-to-one, list each target word as its own tuple. Tokens that share a connection group get the same color automatically.

Word Aligner — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Word Aligner do?
It exposes 1 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_word_alignment. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Word Aligner working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 246 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Word Aligner?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Word Aligner need an API key?
No. Word Aligner completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 1 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Word Aligner?
It answers our handshake in 246 ms on average, which is faster than 54% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Word Aligner open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 4 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
