Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Gamma every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

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.

Put your own value in place of <GAMMA_API_KEY> (Gamma API key (create at https://gamma.app/settings/api-keys)). The author’s registry entry marks it as required.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: GAMMA_EXPORT_POLL_INTERVAL_MS (Export poll interval in milliseconds), GAMMA_EXPORT_POLL_MAX_ATTEMPTS (Maximum export poll attempts), GAMMA_REQUEST_TIMEOUT_MS (Outbound HTTP request timeout in milliseconds (max 1800000)).

Gamma — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Gamma?
Gamma 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 @mindstone/mcp-server-gamma was installed 107 times last week.
How do I connect Gamma?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @mindstone/mcp-server-gamma straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Gamma?
The npm package @mindstone/mcp-server-gamma was installed 107 times in the last week. Week over week that is +73%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Gamma open source?
We cannot say either way: written in TypeScript, 14 stars on GitHub and 2 open issues, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
