Frontrun MCP Server runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 180 installs a week from npm. Last commit 4 Aug 2026.
Track what 1,000+ VCs follow on X to surface startups before their round. Signal for AI agents.

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.
execSync(`claude mcp add frontrun -e FRONTRUN_API_KEY=${apiKey} -- npx frontrun-mcp-server`, { stdio: 'inherit' });
Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.
We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.
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.
claude mcp add frontrun-mcp-server -- npx -y frontrun-mcp-server
{
"mcpServers": {
"frontrun-mcp-server": {
"args": [
"-y",
"frontrun-mcp-server"
],
"command": "npx"
}
}
}
[mcp_servers.frontrun-mcp-server]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "frontrun-mcp-server"]
{
"mcpServers": {
"frontrun-mcp-server": {
"args": [
"-y",
"frontrun-mcp-server"
],
"command": "npx"
}
}
}
{
"mcpServers": {
"frontrun-mcp-server": {
"args": [

],
"command": "npx"

This one needs environment variables set before it will start:
FRONTRUN_API_KEY (Optional — the server runs OAuth device-flow setup if unset. API + MCP access is included with the Pro plan ($99/mo) at https://www.frontrun.vc.).
The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
