Delegate bulk code edits to a cheap worker model. Gated, atomic. PHP and Python.

Nothing serious here today

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

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 mcp-bifrost -- uvx mcp-bifrost
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-bifrost": {

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: DEEPSEEK_API_KEY (Worker API key. Not needed when BIFROST_WORKER_BASE_URL points at a local endpoint.), BIFROST_WORKER_BASE_URL (OpenAI-compatible endpoint for the worker model. Set this to run a local model so no code leaves the machine.), BIFROST_WORKER_MODEL (Worker model identifier. Defaults to deepseek-chat.), BIFROST_DB (Path to the operational log. Defaults to .bifrost/history.db in the working directory.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

MCP Bifrost — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for MCP Bifrost?
MCP Bifrost 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-bifrost was installed 115 times last week.
How do I connect MCP Bifrost?
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 mcp-bifrost straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use MCP Bifrost?
The pypi package mcp-bifrost was installed 115 times in the last week. Week over week that is -10%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is MCP Bifrost open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in Python 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.
