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.

Put your own value in place of <AGENT_SECURITY_API_KEY> (API key for the managed hosted audit backend). The author’s registry entry marks it as required.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: AGENT_SECURITY_BASE_URL (Optional HTTPS API origin for self-hosted or private deployments).

MCP Audit Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for MCP Audit Server?
MCP Audit Server 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 ledd-mcp-audit-server was installed 66 times last week.
How do I connect MCP Audit Server?
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 ledd-mcp-audit-server straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use MCP Audit Server?
The npm package ledd-mcp-audit-server was installed 66 times in the last week. Week over week that is +13%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is MCP Audit Server open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT 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.
