MediaMCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for MediaMCP?
MediaMCP 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 mcpproducts-media was installed 429 times last week.
How do I connect MediaMCP?
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 mcpproducts-media straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use MediaMCP?
The pypi package mcpproducts-media was installed 429 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.
