Traplens — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Traplens?
Traplens 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 @reneturcios/traplens was installed 259 times last week.
How do I connect Traplens?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @reneturcios/traplens straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Traplens?
The npm package @reneturcios/traplens was installed 259 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 Traplens 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.
