This one has been quiet for a while

Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

Spec Driven Development — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Spec Driven Development?
Spec Driven Development 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 mcp-server-spec-driven-development was installed 67 times last week.
Is Spec Driven Development still maintained?
No commits for 13 months. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.
How do I connect Spec Driven Development?
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-spec-driven-development straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Spec Driven Development?
The npm package mcp-server-spec-driven-development was installed 67 times in the last week. Week over week that is +6%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Spec Driven Development open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 440 stars on GitHub and 3 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
