This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

run in your terminal
claude mcp add p4plan-mcp -- npx -y @perforce/p4plan-mcp

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: P4PLAN_API_AUTH_TOKEN (JWT bearer token for the P4 Plan GraphQL API. Forwarded as Authorization on every tool call.), P4PLAN_API_URL (URL of the P4 Plan GraphQL API (default: http://localhost:4000).), P4PLAN_ALLOW_SELF_SIGNED_CERTS (Set to 'true' to accept self-signed TLS certificates from the GraphQL API. Default: false.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

P4plan MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for P4plan MCP?
P4plan 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 @perforce/p4plan-mcp was installed 23 times last week.
How do I connect P4plan 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 @perforce/p4plan-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use P4plan MCP?
The npm package @perforce/p4plan-mcp was installed 23 times in the last week. Week over week that is +75%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is P4plan MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 4 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.
