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 value in place of <OPENAPI_MCP_HEADERS> (JSON string of headers for Anytype API. Example: {"Authorization":"Bearer <YOUR_API_KEY>", "Anytype-Version":"2025-05-20"}). The author’s registry entry marks it as required.

Anytype MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Anytype MCP?
Anytype 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 npm package @anyproto/anytype-mcp was installed 1 342 times last week.
How do I connect Anytype MCP?
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 @anyproto/anytype-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Anytype MCP?
The npm package @anyproto/anytype-mcp was installed 1 342 times in the last week. Week over week that is +20%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Anytype MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 537 stars on GitHub and 19 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
