Abbe MCP Server

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for the Abbe Core API — AI workforce impact analysis across 922 U.S. occupations.

Connects AI coding assistants (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor) to the hosted Abbe API. Runs locally, makes authenticated HTTP calls.

Installation

pip install abbe-mcp

Configuration

Set your API key as an environment variable or in your MCP config (see below):

export ABBE_API_KEY=your-api-key

ABBE_API_URL is optional — defaults to https://abbeapi.com.

Setup

Claude Code

claude mcp add abbe abbe-mcp -e ABBE_API_KEY=your-api-key

Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "abbe": {
      "command": "abbe-mcp",
      "env": {
        "ABBE_API_KEY": "your-api-key"
      }
    }

      }
    }
  }
}

Available Tools

Tool	Description
`resolve_job_title`	Resolve a job title to a standardized O*NET occupation code
`get_ai_impact`	Get AI impact scores (displacement/augmentation) for occupations
`analyze_workforce`	Analyze AI impact across a workforce portfolio with headcount and salary
`get_skills`	Get the most important and distinctive skills for occupations
`get_occupation_tasks`	Get task-level AI impact labels for a specific occupation
`list_occupations`	Browse and search the 922 scored occupations
`get_api_info`	Get API metadata, model version, and coverage statistics

Example Usage

Ask your AI assistant natural-language questions:

"How will AI affect software engineers?"

"Compare AI impact on nurses vs accountants"

"Analyze a team of 50 software developers and 20 product managers"

"What specific tasks are driving AI impact for Lawyers?"

The assistant resolves titles to SOC codes, fetches impact scores, and formats results automatically.

Troubleshooting

"ABBE_API_KEY environment variable is not set" — Add your API key to the MCP config's env block.

"Abbe API error (429)" — Rate limit hit. The resolve endpoint allows 30 requests/min. Wait and retry.

Tool not showing up — Run abbe-mcp in your terminal. If it hangs waiting for stdin, the server is working (stdio transport). Press Ctrl+C to exit.
