ENCODE Toolkit — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for ENCODE Toolkit?
ENCODE Toolkit 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 npm package encode-toolkit was installed 139 times last week.
How do I connect ENCODE Toolkit?
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 encode-toolkit straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use ENCODE Toolkit?
The npm package encode-toolkit was installed 139 times in the last week. Week over week that is -9%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is ENCODE Toolkit open source?
Yes — it is published under the AGPL-3.0 licence, written in Python and 20 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
