Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

        query = _TASK_SELECT + "WHERE channel = ?"
        params: list = [channel]

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Connect this server

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 claude-code-bridge -- uvx claude-code-bridge
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "claude-code-bridge": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "claude-code-bridge"
      ]
    }
  }
}

args = ["claude-code-bridge"]

    }
  }
}

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: CLAUDE_BRIDGE_DB (SQLite database path (default: ./claude-bridge.db). Share the same path across HTTP and stdio instances to share state), CLAUDE_BRIDGE_AUTH_TOKEN (Optional Bearer token for HTTP mode. As of 1.2.0, binding a non-loopback host requires this token together with an explicit trusted host (CLAUDE_BRIDGE_TRUSTED_HOSTS), unless --allow-unauthenticated-network is passed; loopback (stdio and localhost) does not require it. When set, all HTTP endpoints except /status require Authorization: Bearer <token>. Not used in stdio mode).

Claude Bridge — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Claude Bridge?
Claude Bridge 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 claude-code-bridge was installed 317 times last week.
How do I connect Claude Bridge?
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 claude-code-bridge straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Claude Bridge?
The pypi package claude-code-bridge was installed 317 times in the last week. Week over week that is +45%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Claude Bridge open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python, 14 stars on GitHub and 3 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
