Convertapi — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Convertapi?
Convertapi 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 mcparmory-convertapi was installed 240 times last week.
How do I connect Convertapi?
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 mcparmory-convertapi straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Convertapi?
The pypi package mcparmory-convertapi was installed 240 times in the last week. Week over week that is -21%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Convertapi open source?
We cannot say either way: written in Python, 31 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
