Evidence

Things with no honest explanation: a promise that contradicts the code, code that runs at install time while hiding what it does, data leaving the machine.

Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

  return { entry, specJson: readFileSync(path.join(directory, entry.specFile), "utf-8") };
raw = subprocess.run(["ffmpeg", "-v", "error", "-i", path, "-ac", "1", "-ar", str(SR), "-f", "f32le", "-"], capture_output=True, check=True).stdout
function applyTheme(){root.classList.toggle('dark',theme==='dark');tb.innerHTML=theme==='dark'?SUN:MOON;try{localStorage.swarmMock=theme}catch(e){}}

We found things in this code

Code changes quietly between releases, and nobody reads the diff of a dependency. We do, on every release — watch Agent Swarm and you get told the day something new turns up.

Agent Swarm — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Is Agent Swarm working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 182 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 0 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Agent Swarm as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Agent Swarm?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Agent Swarm need an API key?
No. Agent Swarm completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How many people use Agent Swarm?
The npm package @desplega.ai/agent-swarm was installed 3 214 times in the last week. Week over week that is -56%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Agent Swarm open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 1 030 stars on GitHub and 19 open issues. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service, which runs on its operator's own terms.
