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.

  <nve-steps behavior-select container="${1:condensed}">
    <nve-steps-item status="success">${2:Step 1}</nve-steps-item>
  spawn(command, args, { stdio: 'inherit' }).on('close', code => process.exit(code ?? 0));
  const data = eval(`html\`${template}\``); // treat parsed source string as a template literal
Touches key and credential files projects/internals/tools/src/project/starters.ts:167
  await writeFile(join(dist, '.npmrc'), 'registry=https://registry.npmjs.org/');

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.

NVIDIA Elements — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for NVIDIA Elements?
NVIDIA Elements 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 @nvidia-elements/cli was installed 318 times last week.
How do I connect NVIDIA Elements?
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 @nvidia-elements/cli straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use NVIDIA Elements?
The npm package @nvidia-elements/cli was installed 318 times in the last week. Week over week that is +13%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is NVIDIA Elements open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in TypeScript and 86 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.
