US Code of Federal Regulations — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for US Code of Federal Regulations?

US Code of Federal Regulations 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 cfr-mcp was installed 1 544 times last week.

How do I connect US Code of Federal Regulations?

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 cfr-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use US Code of Federal Regulations?

The pypi package cfr-mcp was installed 1 544 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is US Code of Federal Regulations open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python 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.
