This one has been quiet for a while

Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

Put your own values in place of <AIRFLOW_BASE_URL> (The base URL for the Airflow API (e.g., http://localhost:8080)), <AUTH_TOKEN> (The JWT authentication token for Airflow API access). The author’s registry entry marks them as required.

Airflow MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Airflow MCP Server?
Airflow MCP Server runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the pypi package airflow-mcp-server was installed 400 times last week.
Is Airflow MCP Server still maintained?
No commits for 12 months. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.
How do I connect Airflow MCP Server?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls airflow-mcp-server straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Airflow MCP Server?
The pypi package airflow-mcp-server was installed 400 times in the last week. Week over week that is -8%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Airflow MCP Server open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python, 33 stars on GitHub and 2 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
