Unreal Engine MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Unreal Engine MCP?
Unreal Engine 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 unreal-engine-mcp-server was installed 404 times last week.
How do I connect Unreal Engine 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 unreal-engine-mcp-server straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Unreal Engine MCP?
The npm package unreal-engine-mcp-server was installed 404 times in the last week. Week over week that is +131%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Unreal Engine MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 811 stars on GitHub and 9 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
