Arkgate MCP Server

by pedroknigge Your server? Claim it
local only

Arkgate runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 867 installs a week from npm. Last commit 31 Oct 2026.

When the agent writes a bad import, the write doesn’t land. The same check fails the pull request.

What the code does

A tool parameter reaches a dangerous call

A value the model can set ends up inside a file or shell call. That is not a flaw by itself — for a terminal server it is the job — but it is where things go wrong when it is not.

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.

  const abs = path.isAbsolute(filePath) ? filePath : path.join(root, filePath);
…ntinue}o.add(b),"delete"in d&&d.delete&&!n.has(b)&&s.push({ruleId:"DELETE_TARGET_MISSING",file:b,line:1,message:`Cannot delete ${b} because it is not present in the supplied base tree.`}),r.push("delete"in d&&d.delete?{path:b,delete:!0}:{path:b,content:"content"in d?d.content:""}…

Arkgate — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Arkgate?
Arkgate 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 arkgate was installed 867 times last week.
How do I connect Arkgate?
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 arkgate straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Arkgate?
The npm package arkgate was installed 867 times in the last week. Week over week that is +19%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Arkgate open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript 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.
