Install

How do I install the TheWholeTorah MCP server?

TheWholeTorah is a hosted endpoint at https://www.thewholetorah.ai/api/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 8 exposed · ~624 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
ask ~93

Ask a question and get an answer grounded ONLY in TheWholeTorah.ai's own lessons and sources, with citations. It will say when it does not know rather than guess. Prefer this for 'what does X say about Y' questions.

NameTypeReqDescription
slugstringyesThe lesson slug (from search_lessons or get_daily).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_daily ~112

TheWholeTorah is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as ai.thewholetorah/thewholetorah. Torah lessons in six languages: grounded search, cited lessons, sources, honest ask. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://www.thewholetorah.ai/api/mcp).

Is the TheWholeTorah MCP server safe to use?

TheWholeTorah scores 79 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the TheWholeTorah MCP server expose?

TheWholeTorah exposes 8 tools: search_lessons, get_lesson, get_source_text, get_daily, list_books, and 3 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 624 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the TheWholeTorah MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to TheWholeTorah without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the TheWholeTorah MCP server still maintained?

TheWholeTorah is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 24 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
