MIME type lookup MCP.
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1394+ live data sources.
Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
lookup_mime |
Get the MIME (media) type for a filename or extension, e.g. "photo.png" or "png" -> "image/png". Keyless, offline. |
extension_for |
Get the file extension(s) for a MIME type, e.g. "image/jpeg" -> ["jpg","jpeg"]. Keyless, offline. |
Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"mime": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mime/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Mime data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
