This one needs environment variables set before it will start: PROOFREAD_API_KEY (proofread.law API key (pl_...), from the sign_up tool or https://proofread.law/account. Optional: without it the free tier applies per IP.), PROOFREAD_API (Base URL of the proofread.law API.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

proofread.law — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for proofread.law?

proofread.law 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 proofread-mcp was installed 603 times last week.

How do I connect proofread.law?

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 proofread-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use proofread.law?

The npm package proofread-mcp was installed 603 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is proofread.law open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript 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.
