Genealogy

Overview

Genealogy is a Model Context Protocol server that reads and edits local GEDCOM and BegatAll files over stdio. It displays living people by default unless you choose to hide them. By speaking MCP, it lets AI assistants work with your genealogy data as callable tools rather than requiring manual copy-pasting between applications.

The server runs entirely on your local machine via the npm package @eacpartners/genealogy-mcp at version v1.4.1. No authentication or credentials are needed — it works immediately after installation. You can launch it with npx -y @eacpartners/genealogy-mcp.

Genealogy is listed in the Development category on mcp.site and works with all major MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. If you maintain this server, you can claim this listing to verify ownership and keep the information up to date.
