Transkribus runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 93 installs a week from npm. Last commit 8 Sep 2026.
MCP server for the Transkribus REST API — collections, documents, HTR/OCR, and models.
Nothing serious here today
Today is the operative word: we check Transkribus every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.
