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.

      "env": {

      }
    }
  }
}

Put your own value in place of <SLACK_BOT_TOKEN> (Slack bot token (xoxb-...) for an app with lists:read and lists:write scopes. The bot must be given access to each List it manages). The author’s registry entry marks it as required.

Slack Lists MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Slack Lists MCP?
Slack Lists 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 pypi package ars-slack-lists-mcp was installed 100 times last week.
How do I connect Slack Lists 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 ars-slack-lists-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Slack Lists MCP?
The pypi package ars-slack-lists-mcp was installed 100 times in the last week. Week over week that is -12%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Slack Lists MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 1 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.
