This one has been quiet for a while

Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

Janus Kinematic Drive — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Janus Kinematic Drive?
Janus Kinematic Drive 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 ubos-janus-mcp was installed 84 times last week.
Is Janus Kinematic Drive still maintained?
The author archived this repository on GitHub, meaning it is no longer maintained. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.
How do I connect Janus Kinematic Drive?
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 ubos-janus-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Janus Kinematic Drive?
The pypi package ubos-janus-mcp was installed 84 times in the last week. Week over week that is -36%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Janus Kinematic Drive 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.
