What the code does

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

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.

Runs an external command bin/open-compute-mcp.js:99, [пакет] bin/open-compute-mcp.js:99

  const child = spawn(cmd, args, { stdio: "inherit", windowsHide: true });

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

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Connect this server

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.

open-compute (computer-use) — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for open-compute (computer-use)?

open-compute (computer-use) 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 open-compute-mcp was installed 85 times last week.

How do I connect open-compute (computer-use)?

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 open-compute-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use open-compute (computer-use)?

The npm package open-compute-mcp was installed 85 times in the last week. Week over week that is -51%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is open-compute (computer-use) open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 1 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.
