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 dropscan-mcp -- uvx dropscan-mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dropscan-mcp": {
      "args": [

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: DROPSCAN_API_TOKEN (Personal access token for the Dropscan REST API), DROPSCAN_ALLOW_WRITES (Set to 1 to unlock the write and action tools, which also require confirm=true on every call). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Dropscan MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Dropscan MCP?
Dropscan 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 dropscan-mcp was installed 59 times last week.
How do I connect Dropscan 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 dropscan-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Dropscan MCP?
The pypi package dropscan-mcp was installed 59 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 Dropscan MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python 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.
