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.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (API key for Anthropic Claude (default LLM provider)), LLM_MODEL (LLM model to use (default: claude-sonnet-4-6). Supports Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, Groq, Ollama via LiteLLM.), OPENAI_API_KEY (API key for OpenAI models), GEMINI_API_KEY (API key for Google Gemini models), GROQ_API_KEY (API key for Groq models). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Observe Instrument MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Observe Instrument MCP?
Observe Instrument MCP 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 observe-instrument-mcp was installed 96 times last week.
How do I connect Observe Instrument MCP?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls observe-instrument-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Observe Instrument MCP?
The pypi package observe-instrument-mcp was installed 96 times in the last week. Week over week that is +37%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Observe Instrument MCP open source?
We cannot say either way: written in Python and 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
