Aspire MCP Server
Enables Claude Cowork to interact with a PostgreSQL database for navigating educational content hierarchies and importing LaTeX-formatted quizzes. Users can fetch courses, units, and lessons while automatically parsing and inserting quiz questions into specific database tables.
README
Aspire MCP Server
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that connects Claude Cowork to a PostgreSQL database, enabling course navigation (course → unit → chapter → lesson) and LaTeX quiz file import. Parsed quiz questions are inserted into the dim_questions and dim_options tables linked to lessons via dim_tests.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 20+
- PostgreSQL database with the Aspire
apischema
Setup
cd mcp-server
npm install
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your real DATABASE_URL
npx drizzle-kit pull # generates src/db/schema.ts from live DB
npm run dev
Connect Cowork
Add MCP server URL: http://localhost:3100/mcp
MCP Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
get_courses |
Fetch all available courses |
get_units_with_chapters |
Fetch units and chapters for a course |
get_lessons |
Fetch lessons for a chapter |
import_quizzes |
Parse a LaTeX file and insert quiz questions for a lesson |
LaTeX File Format
Each question uses a \question macro with 4 brace-delimited arguments:
\question
{Question text here}
{\item choice1\item choice2\item choice3\item choice4}
{Explanation (ignored)}
{A) choice1}
Assumptions
- The database uses the
apischema (notpublic) - IDs are bigint (not UUID) — passed as strings in MCP tool parameters
- Quiz questions map to
dim_questions+dim_options(normalized), not a flat table - If a lesson has no
dim_test, one is created automatically during import - Only the first 4-5 answer choices are stored; option E is included if present
