Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Studycards every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

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.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add studycards -- npx -y @studycards/mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "studycards": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@studycards/mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}

args = ["-y", "@studycards/mcp"]

  "mcpServers": {
    "studycards": {
      "args": [

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: STUDYCARDS_API_KEY (StudyCards API key (sk_live_...), created under Settings, API Keys), STUDYCARDS_API_URL (Optional base URL, default https://studycards.io/api/v1). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Studycards — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Studycards?
Studycards 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 @studycards/mcp was installed 24 times last week.
How do I connect Studycards?
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 @studycards/mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Studycards?
The npm package @studycards/mcp was installed 24 times in the last week. Week over week that is -76%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
