# Oak National Academy MCP MCP Server

> **Oak National Academy MCP MCP Server** is a hosted, multitenant Model Context Protocol (MCP) server run by **MewCP** (https://mewcp.com), giving AI agents managed access to Oak National Academy MCP.
>
> MewCP takes care of all MCP infrastructure for you — credential storage, OAuth flows,
> token refresh, and production-grade auto-scaling — so your AI agents can connect to
> third-party services and run freely without you managing any MCP server yourself.

## About

Oak National Academy provides free, curriculum-aligned teaching and learning resources for UK schools. Search lessons by subject, key stage, and topic; retrieve lesson materials, quizzes, worksheets, and teaching resources across its national curriculum library.

---

## Details

- Server ID: `oak-national-academy-mcp`
- Version: 0.1.0
- Tools: 38
- Authentication: OAuth, managed by MewCP
- Transport: http

---

## Access

The gateway URL below serves your **entire MewCP toolset**, not this server on its
own. Pasting a config snippet is not enough — Oak National Academy MCP has to be in the toolset
first. In order:

1. Add Oak National Academy MCP to your toolset at https://mewcp.com/mcp/oak-national-academy-mcp
2. Connect your Oak National Academy MCP account (OAuth); MewCP stores the credential and attaches it to each call
3. Copy your MewCP API key from the dashboard (Developer)
4. Configure your client with the snippet for it below

Once connected, an agent does **not** see this server's tools as top-level tools.
It sees four meta-tools and reaches everything through them:

- `search(query)` — find tools by keyword across the toolset
- `get_schema(tools)` — full description and arguments for the tools you picked
- `list_accounts(provider)` — only when one app has several connected accounts
- `call_tool(server_maskedId, tool_name, args)` — execute

So the list below is what `search` can return for this server, not a set of
callable tool names on their own.

3. Save the file, then quit Claude Desktop completely and reopen it
4. Start a new conversation — your tool will be available

### VS Code

Copilot / Cline

- Command Palette → "MCP: Open User Configuration" (opens mcp.json). For one project only, use .vscode/mcp.json instead.

```json
{
  "mcp.servers": {
    "mewcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://gateway.mewcp.com/personal/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Already have a "servers" section in your mcp.json? Just add the server entry inside it.

1. Open VS Code → Command Palette (Cmd+Shift+P / Ctrl+Shift+P)
2. Run "MCP: Open User Configuration" to open your mcp.json
3. Paste the snippet and save
4. Start the server when prompted (or from the MCP servers view) and use it in Copilot Chat

AI-first editor

- macOS: `~/.cursor/mcp.json`
- Windows: `%USERPROFILE%\.cursor\mcp.json`

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mewcp": {
      "url": "https://gateway.mewcp.com/personal/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer API_KEY"
      }

### Codex

OpenAI's CLI agent

- Add the snippet to your Codex MCP config or your standard MCP config file for the CLI tool you use.

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mewcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://gateway.mewcp.com/personal/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer API_KEY"

4. Or skip the file entirely and run the CLI command below instead

### OpenCode

Open-source terminal agent

- ~/.config/opencode/opencode.json (global) or opencode.json in your project root — create it if it doesn't exist.

```json
{
  "$schema": "https://opencode.ai/config.json",
  "mcp": {
    "mewcp": {
      "type": "remote",
      "url": "https://gateway.mewcp.com/personal/mcp",
      "enabled": true,
      "headers": {

      "mewcp": {
        "transport": "streamable-http",
        "url": "https://gateway.mewcp.com/personal/mcp",
        "enabled": true,
        "headers": {
          "Authorization": "Bearer API_KEY"

2. Paste the snippet inside the outer { } (merge with your existing "mcp" section if you have one)
3. Save the file and restart OpenClaw

### Antigravity

Google's agentic IDE

- ~/.gemini/config/mcp_config.json (global) or .agents/mcp_config.json (workspace-local) — create it if it doesn't exist.

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mewcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://gateway.mewcp.com/personal/mcp",

3. Save the file — the server connects automatically

### Hermes

Nous Research's CLI agent

- config.yaml in your Hermes config directory (~/.hermes) — add this under a top-level "mcp_servers:" key.

```yaml
mcp_servers:
  mewcp:
    url: "https://gateway.mewcp.com/personal/mcp"
    headers:
      Authorization: "Bearer API_KEY"
```

Already have an "mcp_servers" section in your config.yaml? Just add the server entry inside it.

1. Open config.yaml in your Hermes config directory
2. Paste the snippet under the top-level "mcp_servers:" key (merge with existing entries if you have any)
3. Save the file, then run /reload-mcp in Hermes (or start a fresh session)
4. Ask Hermes "Tell me which MCP-backed tools are available right now" to confirm it connected

### DeepSeek Harness

DeepSeek's agent harness

- cordis.yml in your DSH project — or the patch file you mount plugins from.

```yaml
- id: mcp-mewcp
  name: '@deepseek-ai/dsh-mcp-client'
  config:
    serverName: mewcp
    transport: streamable-http
    url: https://gateway.mewcp.com/personal/mcp
    headers:
      Authorization: "Bearer API_KEY"
```

One plugin instance = one MCP server. Add this entry to your plugin list; don't nest it inside another entry.

1. Open cordis.yml (or your patch file) in your DSH project
2. Paste the entry into your plugin list, keeping the leading dash and indentation
3. Restart DSH (or let HMR reload) — tools register as mcp__mewcp__<tool_name>
4. Verify with: dsh web --dump-config | grep -A3 mcp
