Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Runs a command on install [пакет] package.json:1
postinstall: node scripts/postinstall.js
File ships in the package but is absent from the source [пакет] dist-dashboard/index.html:1, [пакет] dist-mcp/assets/hooks/discipline/posttool-collect-reminder.sh:1, [пакет] dist-mcp/assets/hooks/discipline/pretool-signals-validate.sh:1 и ещё 2
этот файл ставится пользователю, но в репозитории его нет
Builds a database query by concatenation packages/orchestrator/src/tool-router.ts:892
${existingSpec ? `\nThe user already has a spec. Update it based on the new request:\n${existingSpec}` : ''}
Touches key and credential files apps/cli/src/sandbox.ts:847
    { path: `${home}/.aws/credentials` },

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Connect this server

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

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: GOOGLE_API_KEY (Google Gemini API key for relay agents (optional — native agents need no API key)), GOSSIPCAT_PORT (Fixed port for the relay/dashboard server (optional — defaults to OS-assigned with sticky file)).

Gossipcat — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Gossipcat?
Gossipcat 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 gossipcat was installed 253 times last week.
How do I connect Gossipcat?
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 gossipcat straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Gossipcat?
The npm package gossipcat was installed 253 times in the last week. Week over week that is -8%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Gossipcat open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 41 stars on GitHub and 3 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
