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: CHEAPERESIM_API_TOKEN (Optional read-only CheapereSIM API token. Without it the five plan-search tools work normally. With it, two extra tools can list the eSIMs on your account and their remaining data. Create one at https://cheaperesim.com/dashboard/api-tokens), CHEAPERESIM_API_BASE (Override the API base URL. Defaults to https://cheaperesim.com and only needs changing for local development.), CHEAPERESIM_TIMEOUT_MS (Per-request timeout in milliseconds. Defaults to 10000.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Esim MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Esim MCP?
Esim 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 npm package esim-mcp was installed 33 times last week.
How do I connect Esim MCP?
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 esim-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Esim MCP?
The npm package esim-mcp was installed 33 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Esim MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript 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.
