What the code does

We read the source, 21 h ago · rules 3dff92dd89df

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.

Reads secrets and sends them out server.ts:1948
  for (const [key, val] of Object.entries(process.env)) {
Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Dumps the whole environment server.ts:1948
  for (const [key, val] of Object.entries(process.env)) {
Reads files and sends them to the network server.ts:1418
        const entries = await fs.readdir(TEMP_DIR).catch(() => [] as string[]);

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

We found things in this code

Code changes quietly between releases, and nobody reads the diff of a dependency. We do, on every release — watch MCP Dashboards and you get told the day something new turns up.

MCP Dashboards — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for MCP Dashboards?
MCP Dashboards 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 mcp-dashboards was installed 425 times last week.
How do I connect MCP Dashboards?
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-dashboards straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use MCP Dashboards?
The npm package mcp-dashboards was installed 425 times in the last week. Week over week that is +15%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is MCP Dashboards open source?
We cannot say either way: written in TypeScript and 48 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
