Nothing serious here today

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

Put your own values in place of <ICTFAX_BASE_URL> (ICTCore REST base URL of your ICTFax server, normally ending in /api, e.g. https://your-ictfax/api), <ICTFAX_USERNAME> (API account email (ICTCore logs in by email)), <ICTFAX_PASSWORD> (Password for the account). The author’s registry entry marks them as required.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: ICTFAX_ACCOUNT_ID (Account id to send faxes from. Defaults to 1), ICTFAX_MCP_ALLOW_WRITE (Unlocks uploading documents and sending faxes, which dials a real number and can cost money. When false those tools are not registered at all. Leave off unless you mean it), ICTFAX_TIMEOUT_MS (Per request timeout in milliseconds. Defaults to 30000), ICTFAX_TLS_INSECURE (Skip TLS certificate verification. Only for a self-signed test server).

Ictfax MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Ictfax MCP?
Ictfax 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 npm package ictfax-mcp was installed 17 times last week.
How do I connect Ictfax MCP?
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 ictfax-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Ictfax MCP?
The npm package ictfax-mcp was installed 17 times in the last week. Week over week that is +29%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Ictfax MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 17 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.
