Today is the operative word: we check Inspector 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 inspector -- npx -y @gridinsoft/mcp-inspector

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: GRIDINSOFT_API_KEY (API key from inspector.gridinsoft.com/profile (100 free credits on signup)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Inspector — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Inspector?
Inspector 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 @gridinsoft/mcp-inspector was installed 35 times last week.
How do I connect Inspector?
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 @gridinsoft/mcp-inspector straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Inspector?
The npm package @gridinsoft/mcp-inspector was installed 35 times in the last week. Week over week that is +12%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Inspector open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 1 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.
