Alfanous - Quranic Search Engine — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Alfanous - Quranic Search Engine?

Alfanous - Quranic Search Engine 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 alfanous3-mcp was installed 500 times last week.

How do I connect Alfanous - Quranic Search Engine?

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 alfanous3-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Alfanous - Quranic Search Engine?

The pypi package alfanous3-mcp was installed 500 times in the last week. Week over week that is +176%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Alfanous - Quranic Search Engine open source?

Yes — it is published under the LGPL-3.0 licence, written in Python, 286 stars on GitHub and 20 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
