Recon Kit MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Recon Kit MCP?

Recon Kit MCP 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 pypi package recon-kit-mcp was installed 106 times last week.

How do I connect Recon Kit MCP?

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 recon-kit-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Recon Kit MCP?

The pypi package recon-kit-mcp was installed 106 times in the last week. Week over week that is -74%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Recon Kit MCP open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 1 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.
