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 packages/cli/src/keyring.ts:50, packages/cli/src/service-installer.ts:38, packages/engine/src/core/companions.ts:161 и ещё 8
    return execFileSync(file, args, {
Touches key and credential files .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.yml:12
        **Do not paste secrets.** Session transcripts and `.npmrc`/`.env` files
Reads files and sends them to the network packages/cli/src/sync-client.ts:35
import { readFileSync, writeFileSync, mkdirSync, mkdtempSync, rmSync, chmodSync, unlinkSync, readdirSync, statSync } from 'node:fs';
Sends data to a third-party sink packages/server/src/services/builtin-rulepack.ts:140
  { name: 'slack-webhook-url', regex: '(?:https?://)?hooks.slack.com/(?:services|workflows|triggers)/[A-Za-z0-9+/]{43,56}', severity: 'medium' },

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.

This endpoint answered with an authorization challenge — the server is running, but you need an API key or OAuth to use it.

chat-recall — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no tool list for chat-recall?
The server answered our handshake with an authorization challenge, so it is running — but it will not describe its tools to an anonymous client. To see them you need to connect with your own credentials. We record it as alive, not as broken: 100.0% of checks in the last 24 hours got a reply.
Is chat-recall working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 211 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect chat-recall?
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 is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address. You will need your own key or an OAuth login: it refuses anonymous clients.
Does chat-recall need an API key?
Yes. Every time we knock, chat-recall answers with an authorization challenge instead of its tool list — that is how we know it is running and gated rather than broken. Bring your own credentials and it will talk.
How fast is chat-recall?
It answers our handshake in 211 ms on average, which is faster than 70% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use chat-recall?
The npm package chat-recall was installed 3 736 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.
Is chat-recall open source?
Yes — it is published under the NOASSERTION licence, written in TypeScript and 2 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
