Nothing serious here today

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

Connect this server

This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add yandex-direct -e 'YD_TOKEN=<YD_TOKEN>' -- uvx mcp-server-yandex-direct
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "yandex-direct": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-server-yandex-direct"
      ],
      "env": {
        "YD_TOKEN": "<YD_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml

    "yandex-direct": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-server-yandex-direct"

      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [

      ],
      "env": {
        "YD_TOKEN": "<YD_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Put your own value in place of <YD_TOKEN>. The author’s registry entry marks it as required.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: YD_CLIENT_LOGIN, YD_LANG, YD_TIMEOUT, YD_FILE_TIMEOUT.

Yandex Direct — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Yandex Direct?
Yandex Direct 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 pypi package mcp-server-yandex-direct was installed 90 times last week.
How do I connect Yandex Direct?
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 runs locally, so the command pulls mcp-server-yandex-direct straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Yandex Direct?
The pypi package mcp-server-yandex-direct was installed 90 times in the last week. Week over week that is -14%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Yandex Direct open source?
We cannot say either way: written in Python and 1 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
