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.

Defaults to enabled.), MYHOTLUNCHBOX_TOKEN_FILE (Absolute path for the token cache file. Defaults to $MCP_DATA_DIR/.myhotlunchbox-mcp/token.json.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Myhotlunchbox MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Myhotlunchbox MCP?
Myhotlunchbox 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 myhotlunchbox-mcp was installed 239 times last week.
How do I connect Myhotlunchbox 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 myhotlunchbox-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Myhotlunchbox MCP?
The npm package myhotlunchbox-mcp was installed 239 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Myhotlunchbox MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript 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.
