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.

Runs an external command quickshell_mcp/sources/adapters/hyprland.py:20, quickshell_mcp/sources/runtime_visual.py:29, quickshell_mcp/sources/ui_runtime.py:35 и ещё 5

        result = subprocess.run(["hyprctl", "-j", *args], capture_output=True, text=True, timeout=5)

Dumps the whole environment quickshell_mcp/sources/runtime_profile.py:48, [пакет] quickshell_mcp/sources/runtime_profile.py:48

        base = dict(os.environ)

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Quickshell MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Quickshell MCP?

Quickshell MCP 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 quickshell-mcp was installed 1 619 times last week.

How do I connect Quickshell MCP?

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 quickshell-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Quickshell MCP?

The pypi package quickshell-mcp was installed 1 619 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Quickshell MCP open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT 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.
