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.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add zapier-discovery-mcp -- npx -y zapier-discovery-mcp

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: ZAPIER_CLIENT_ID (Zapier Partner API client_id (free with any Zapier integration; see docs.api.zapier.com)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Zapier Discovery MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Zapier Discovery MCP?
Zapier Discovery 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 zapier-discovery-mcp was installed 15 times last week.
How do I connect Zapier Discovery 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 zapier-discovery-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Zapier Discovery MCP?
The npm package zapier-discovery-mcp was installed 15 times in the last week. Week over week that is +14%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Zapier Discovery MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 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.
