Pepys MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Is Pepys MCP working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 92 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 111 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Pepys MCP as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Pepys 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 is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Pepys MCP need an API key?
No. Pepys MCP completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How many people use Pepys MCP?
The npm package pepys-mcp was installed 45 times in the last week. Week over week that is +42%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
