Prodigy MCP server

Options compared
from"Explosion"

Explosion has not released an MCP server for Prodigy, and we found no community one. The explosion/mcp-server repository this page used to link does not exist. Prodigy's LLM features run through spacy-llm, and its recipes are plain Python, so wrapping a recipe in an MCP tool is possible, but you would be writing that wrapper yourself.

Explosion (official) · ★ 1.4k · updated 2026-10-23

Explosion's library for putting LLM prompts into spaCy pipelines. Prodigy's LLM-assisted annotation recipes are built on it. Not an MCP server.

Best for: LLM pre-annotation inside Prodigy, without MCP.

prodigy-recipes

No UI in chat

Explosion (official) · ★ 511 · updated 2024-08-04

Source for recipes such as ner.manual and ner.teach. Each recipe is a Python function, which is the piece an MCP wrapper would call.

Best for: A starting point if you write your own Prodigy MCP wrapper.

>Questions

Is there a Prodigy MCP server?

Not as of 2026-11-03. Explosion has not published one and we found no community project.

How can I use an LLM with Prodigy today?

Use Prodigy's built-in LLM recipes, which run on spacy-llm. They pre-annotate examples that you then accept or correct in the Prodigy UI.
