What the code does

We have not read this server's code yet, 84 d ago · rules 199b1fe17588

Evidence

Things with no honest explanation: a promise that contradicts the code, code that runs at install time while hiding what it does, data leaving the machine.

MCP Search Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for MCP Search Server?

MCP Search 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 pypi package mcp-search-server was installed 28 times last week.

Is MCP Search Server still maintained?

The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.

How do I connect MCP Search 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 mcp-search-server straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use MCP Search Server?

The pypi package mcp-search-server was installed 28 times in the last week. Week over week that is -42%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
