What the code does

We read the source, 21 h ago · rules 3dff92dd89df

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.

Three servers free · no card

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": {
      "args": [
        "claude-code-bridge"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.claude-code-bridge]
command = "uvx"
args = ["claude-code-bridge"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "claude-code-bridge": {
      "args": [
        "claude-code-bridge"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}
.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "claude-code-bridge": {
      "args": [
        "claude-code-bridge"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: 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.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

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 297 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 with the file path 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 297 times in the last week. Week over week that is -52%. 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, 12 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.
