Install

How do I install the io.github.HumanLineage/wt MCP server?

io.github.HumanLineage/wt is a hosted endpoint at https://humanlineage.org/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 · 6 exposed · ~371 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
get_family_image ~102

Returns a markdown image (![...](url)) of a visual family-tree card showing a person's parents, spouse and children. Use this — not get_relatives — whenever the user asks to see, show, view, or display a family tree, family diagram, or picture of the family. IMPORTANT: include the returned markdown image line verbatim in your reply so it renders for the user.
