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 src/utils/dateAliases.ts:28
  const m = ALIAS_RE.exec(input.trim());

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.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: SWSD_TOKEN (SolarWinds Service Desk admin token (JWT). Generate in the SWSD UI: Setup -> Users & Groups -> Users -> [your user] -> Actions -> Generate JSON Web Token. Service Desk administrator rights required.), SWSD_BASE_URL (SWSD API base URL. US tenants: https://api.samanage.com (default). EU tenants: https://apieu.samanage.com.), SWSD_PROFILE (Tool registration profile: 'triage' (14 read-heavy tools), 'agent' (37 default), 'knowledge' (15 KB-author), 'operations' (64 ITSM operations tools), 'full' (66 every tool).), SWSD_WRITE_MODE (Write safety mode: 'live' calls SWSD normally; 'dry-run' returns write payload previews without sending writes; 'disabled' rejects write tools.), SWSD_ATTACHMENT_ROOT (Optional real-path boundary for local file_path attachment uploads over stdio. Files outside this directory are rejected.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Swsd — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Swsd?
Swsd 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 swsd-mcp was installed 128 times last week.
How do I connect Swsd?
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 swsd-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Swsd?
The npm package swsd-mcp was installed 128 times in the last week. Week over week that is -29%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Swsd open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 4 stars on GitHub and 2 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
