Available tools 6

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

package

package_dependencies

List the direct dependencies of a specific package version (defaults to latest), via deps.dev. Lets an agent understand what a package pulls in before adding it. Ecosystems: npm, pypi, cargo.

package_downloads

Get popularity/download statistics for a package (recent download counts). Useful for judging how widely used and battle-tested a dependency is. Ecosystems: npm, pypi, cargo.

package_health

A composite trust/health check for a package an agent is considering: latest-release recency, deprecation status, license present, maintainer count, dependency count, and any known security advisories (via deps.dev). Returns a summary an agent can act on. Ecosystems: npm, pypi, cargo.

package_info

Get core metadata for a package: latest version, description, license, homepage, source repository, maintainers, and whether it is deprecated. Use before an agent installs or recommends a dependency. Ecosystems: npm, pypi, cargo.

package_search

Search for packages by keyword and get the top matches with descriptions. Supported ecosystems: npm and cargo (PyPI has no public search API).

package_versions

List recent released versions of a package with release dates (most recent first). Helps an agent pick a version or check how actively it is maintained. Ecosystems: npm, pypi, cargo.

How do I connect Package Intel MCP?

How fast is Package Intel MCP?

It answers our handshake in 82 ms on average, which is faster than 85% 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.
