Questions

What is the Apollo MCP server?

MCP server that exposes GraphQL operations as tools for AI models. It is made by @apollographql and listed in the official MCP Registry as io.github.apollographql/apollo-mcp-server. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard that lets AI apps like Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor use outside tools.

How do I add Apollo to Claude?

In Claude Code, run: claude mcp add apollo-mcp-server -- docker run -i --rm ghcr.io/apollographql/apollo-mcp-server:v2.1.0

How do I add Apollo to ChatGPT?

ChatGPT only connects to remote MCP servers, and Apollo runs on your own computer. Use it from Claude, Cursor or another app that runs local servers.

How do I add Apollo to Cursor?

Open Cursor settings, go to MCP, choose "Add new MCP server" (or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json) and add: { "mcpServers": { "apollo-mcp-server": { "command": "docker", "args": [ "run", "-i", "--rm", "ghcr.io/apollographql/apollo-mcp-server:v2.1.0" ] } } }

Does Apollo work right now?

It runs on your own computer, so it works once you install it. There is no remote server for us to check.
