Claude Code Explorer MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Claude Code Explorer MCP?
Claude Code Explorer 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 npm package claude-code-explorer-mcp was installed 35 times last week.
How do I connect Claude Code Explorer MCP?
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 claude-code-explorer-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Claude Code Explorer MCP?
The npm package claude-code-explorer-mcp was installed 35 times in the last week. Week over week that is -46%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Claude Code Explorer MCP open source?
We cannot say either way: 6 240 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
