Nothing serious here today

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

FAOSTAT MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for FAOSTAT MCP?
FAOSTAT 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 pypi package faostat-mcp was installed 176 times last week.
How do I connect FAOSTAT 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 faostat-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use FAOSTAT MCP?
The pypi package faostat-mcp was installed 176 times in the last week. Week over week that is -43%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is FAOSTAT MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 17 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.
