Grantex MCP Server

local only

Grantex runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 97 installs a week from npm. Last commit 15 Sep 2026.

OAuth 2.0 for AI agents — scoped delegation tokens, audit trails, and revocation.

What the code does

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.

    return yaml.load(raw, Loader=_UniqueKeyLoader)  # nosec B506 - SafeLoader subclass
Page executes code built at runtime web/playground.html:493
  el.innerHTML = html;
Reads files and sends them to the network packages/sdk-ts/src/client.ts:258
    const files = fs.readdirSync(dirPath).filter((f: string) => f.endsWith('.json'));
In the project's build, not in the package

Found in continuous integration, deployment or infrastructure files, or in a neighbouring package of the same monorepo. None of this is installed when you add the server: it describes how the project is built and released. We list it because a leaked key in a build pipeline is still a real problem, but it is not something this server does on your machine.

Builds a database query by concatenation .github/workflows/monitor-mentions.yml:123
      - name: Create or update monitoring issue
        env:
          GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

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.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add grantex -- npx -y @grantex/mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "grantex": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@grantex/mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.grantex]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "@grantex/mcp"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "grantex": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@grantex/mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}
.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "grantex": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@grantex/mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: GRANTEX_API_KEY (Your Grantex API key). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Grantex — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Grantex?
Grantex 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 @grantex/mcp was installed 97 times last week.
How do I connect Grantex?
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 @grantex/mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Grantex?
The npm package @grantex/mcp was installed 97 times in the last week. Week over week that is +197%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Grantex open source?
We cannot say either way: written in TypeScript, 32 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.
