Nothing serious here today

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

Connect this server

Claude Code Claude Desktop Codex Cursor VS Code

run in your terminal

claude mcp add mcp-server-zendesk -- npx -y @mindstone/mcp-server-zendesk

}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: ZENDESK_CONFIG_PATH (Path to the config directory containing accounts.json and credentials/), ZENDESK_CLIENT_ID (Optional OAuth client ID for legacy token refresh flows), ZENDESK_CLIENT_SECRET (Optional OAuth client secret for legacy token refresh flows). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Zendesk — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Zendesk?

Zendesk 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-zendesk was installed 72 times last week.

How do I connect Zendesk?

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 @mindstone/mcp-server-zendesk straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Zendesk?

The npm package @mindstone/mcp-server-zendesk was installed 72 times in the last week. Week over week that is -14%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Zendesk open source?

We cannot say either way: written in TypeScript, 12 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.
