Nothing serious here today

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

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: PAGEBOLT_API_KEY (Your PageBolt API key (get one free at https://pagebolt.dev)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Pagebolt — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Pagebolt?
Pagebolt 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 npm package pagebolt-mcp was installed 131 times last week.
How do I connect Pagebolt?
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 pagebolt-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Pagebolt?
The npm package pagebolt-mcp was installed 131 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 Pagebolt open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript, 4 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
