Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check KBBI 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.

Claude Code Claude Desktop Codex Cursor VS Code

run in your terminal

claude mcp add kbbi-mcp -- uvx kbbi-mcp

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kbbi-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "kbbi-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}

~/.codex/config.toml

[mcp_servers.kbbi-mcp]
command = "uvx"
args = ["kbbi-mcp"]

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kbbi-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "kbbi-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kbbi-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "kbbi-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: KBBI_TIMEOUT_SECONDS (Timeout for each request to KBBI, in seconds.), KBBI_LOG_LEVEL (Level of the server's logs, which are written to stderr.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

KBBI — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for KBBI?

KBBI 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 kbbi-mcp was installed 240 times last week.

How do I connect KBBI?

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

How many people use KBBI?

The pypi package kbbi-mcp was installed 240 times in the last week. Week over week that is -40%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is KBBI open source?

No, and the distinction matters: its licence is declared as BlueOak-1.0.0. That makes it source-available — you can read the code, but the terms are the author's own, not one of the recognised open-source licences. Read them before you build on it.
