Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Elasticsearch MCP Server every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

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 elasticsearch-mcp-server -- uvx elasticsearch-mcp-server
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "elasticsearch-mcp-server": {
      "args": [
        "elasticsearch-mcp-server"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.elasticsearch-mcp-server]
command = "uvx"
args = ["elasticsearch-mcp-server"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "elasticsearch-mcp-server": {
      "args": [
        "elasticsearch-mcp-server"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}
.vscode/mcp.json

  "mcpServers": {
    "elasticsearch-mcp-server": {
      "args": [
        "elasticsearch-mcp-server"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: ELASTICSEARCH_HOSTS (Comma-separated list of Elasticsearch hosts (e.g., https://localhost:9200)), ELASTICSEARCH_API_KEY (API key for Elasticsearch or Elastic Cloud authentication (recommended)), ELASTICSEARCH_USERNAME (Username for basic authentication (alternative to API key)), ELASTICSEARCH_PASSWORD (Password for basic authentication (used with ELASTICSEARCH_USERNAME)), ELASTICSEARCH_VERIFY_CERTS (Whether to verify SSL certificates (true/false)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Elasticsearch MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Elasticsearch MCP Server?
Elasticsearch MCP Server 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 elasticsearch-mcp-server was installed 2 792 times last week.
How do I connect Elasticsearch MCP Server?
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 elasticsearch-mcp-server straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Elasticsearch MCP Server?
The pypi package elasticsearch-mcp-server was installed 2 792 times in the last week. Week over week that is -17%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Elasticsearch MCP Server open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in Python, 307 stars on GitHub and 8 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
