Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Notion MCP Server every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: NOTION_TOKEN (Notion Personal Access Token (ntn_...) or Internal Integration Secret. Create at https://app.notion.com/developers/tokens), NOTION_PAGE_ID (Optional default parent page ID used by create_page / create_database when no parent is passed.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Notion MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Notion MCP Server?

Notion MCP Server 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 notion-mcp-server was installed 2 834 times last week.

How do I connect Notion MCP Server?

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 notion-mcp-server straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Notion MCP Server?

The npm package notion-mcp-server was installed 2 834 times in the last week. Week over week that is +25%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Notion MCP Server open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 171 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.
