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 mcp-airq-cloud -- uvx mcp-airq-cloud

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: AIRQ_CLOUD_CONFIG_FILE (Path to the air-Q Cloud device configuration JSON file), AIRQ_CLOUD_DEVICES (Inline JSON array with configured air-Q Cloud devices), AIRQ_CLOUD_API_KEY (Global fallback API key (used when per-device api_key is omitted)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

air-Q Cloud — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for air-Q Cloud?
air-Q Cloud 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 mcp-airq-cloud was installed 297 times last week.
How do I connect air-Q Cloud?
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 mcp-airq-cloud straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use air-Q Cloud?
The pypi package mcp-airq-cloud was installed 297 times in the last week. Week over week that is -26%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is air-Q Cloud open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in Python 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.
