Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Infino AI 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.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: INFINO_MCP_URI (Data to serve: a local path, an s3://|az:// bucket URI, or a hosted https://<host>/<database> endpoint (Infino Cloud). Optional — defaults to a durable per-user directory (~/.infino/mcp) so data persists across restarts, falling back to an ephemeral memory:// catalog only if that directory can't be created.), INFINO_API_KEY (API key for a hosted (https://) Infino Cloud endpoint. Required when INFINO_MCP_URI is an https:// URI; ignored for local and object-storage connections.), INFINO_MCP_EMBED_PROVIDER (Embedding provider: 'local' (Hugging Face transformers.js, default) or 'openai' (any OpenAI-compatible /embeddings endpoint, including Azure OpenAI's /openai/v1 surface). Inferred as 'openai' when INFINO_MCP_EMBED_BASE_URL is set.), INFINO_MCP_EMBED_BASE_URL (Base URL of the OpenAI-compatible embeddings API (e.g. https://api.openai.com/v1 or https://<resource>.openai.azure.com/openai/v1). Required when the provider is 'openai'; the server POSTs to <base>/embeddings.), INFINO_MCP_EMBED_API_KEY (API key for the 'openai' provider. Sent as both Authorization: Bearer and api-key so one value works for OpenAI and Azure OpenAI.), INFINO_MCP_EMBED_MODEL (Embedding model. local: a Hugging Face feature-extraction model (default Xenova/all-MiniLM-L6-v2, 384-dim). openai: the model/deployment name (e.g. text-embedding-3-small, 1536-dim). Must match the model that produced the table's stored vectors.), INFINO_MCP_VALIDATE (Set (1/true/yes) to probe the object store at startup, so bad credentials or an unreachable bucket fail then instead of on the first search.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Infino AI — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Infino AI?
Infino AI 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 @infino-ai/mcp-server was installed 125 times last week.
How do I connect Infino AI?
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 @infino-ai/mcp-server straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Infino AI?
The npm package @infino-ai/mcp-server was installed 125 times in the last week. Week over week that is -52%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Infino AI open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in JavaScript 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.
