Nothing serious here today

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

Endpoint below is the one we actually reach during checks — not the one copied from a README. Last verified 2 min ago.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add mcp --transport http https://crela.io/mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp": {
      "url": "https://crela.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.mcp]
url = "https://crela.io/mcp"
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp": {
      "url": "https://crela.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}
.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp": {
      "url": "https://crela.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: CRELA_API_KEY (Crela API key (crela_...) from https://crela.io/dashboard/creator/keys. Only needed for the publish tools; search works without it.), CRELA_BASE_URL (Crela API base URL.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Available tools 2

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

software
get_software
Full public detail of one approved software item by its slug: description, price, platforms, version, system requirements and the url of its Crela page.
search_software
Search the Crela marketplace for reviewed software, apps and games you buy once and own - no subscription. Returns only approved, publicly listed tools, each with a url to its Crela page where it can be bought. Use limit (1-50) to keep the response small and page through the rest; get_software returns the full detail of one.

Crela — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Crela do?
It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_software, search_software. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Crela working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 142 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Crela?
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 is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Crela need an API key?
No. Crela completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Crela?
It answers our handshake in 142 ms on average, which is faster than 76% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use Crela?
The npm package @crela/mcp was installed 247 times in the last week. Week over week that is -38%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
