Put your own values in place of <PIXELTABLE_MCP_PROJECT_ROOT> (Application directory holding your Pixeltable app.py. Fixed for the life of the server process), <PIXELTABLE_HOME> (Catalog directory the server may read and mutate). The author’s registry entry marks them as required.

Pixeltable Developer — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Pixeltable Developer?
Pixeltable Developer 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 pypi package mcp-server-pixeltable-developer was installed 97 times last week.
How do I connect Pixeltable Developer?
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 mcp-server-pixeltable-developer straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Pixeltable Developer?
The pypi package mcp-server-pixeltable-developer was installed 97 times in the last week. Week over week that is -17%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Pixeltable Developer open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in Python, 7 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
