BookBrainz MCP — open book metadata database run by the MetaBrainz Foundation (sister project to MusicBrainz). No auth.

Tools

  • search(query, type, limit?, offset?) — search any entity type: work / edition / author / publisher / series / edition-group
  • lookup(type, bbid, includes?) — fetch a single entity by BookBrainz UUID
  • browse(type, ...) — list works/editions/authors filtered by relationships

Data source

https://api.bookbrainz.org/ — public REST + JSON. Coverage is much smaller than Open Library or Google Books but it’s the canonical home for open editions / works for Wikidata-style data modeling.

Tools

  • search — Search any entity type by free-text.
  • lookup — Fetch a single entity by BookBrainz UUID (bbid).
  • browse — Browse entities of a type filtered by a related entity. e.g. browse editions by work, works by author.
