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 mcp-bruno -- uvx mcp-bruno
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-bruno": {
      "args": [
        "mcp-bruno"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.mcp-bruno]
command = "uvx"
args = ["mcp-bruno"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-bruno": {
      "args": [
        "mcp-bruno"

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: BRUNO_AUTH_TOKEN (Bearer token or auth token passed securely to Bruno collections). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

MCP Bruno — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for MCP Bruno?
MCP Bruno 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-bruno was installed 139 times last week.
How do I connect MCP Bruno?
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 mcp-bruno straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use MCP Bruno?
The pypi package mcp-bruno was installed 139 times in the last week. Week over week that is -68%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is MCP Bruno open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python 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.
