Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):

"chucknorris": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/chucknorris/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 673+ data sources:

"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"

Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Chucknorris data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
