Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Pitstop every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

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 pitstop -- uvx pitstop-f1
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pitstop": {
      "args": [
        "pitstop-f1"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.pitstop]
command = "uvx"
args = ["pitstop-f1"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pitstop": {
      "args": [
        "pitstop-f1"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}
.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pitstop": {
      "args": [
        "pitstop-f1"
      ],
      "command": "uvx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: PITSTOP_TRANSPORT (Transport mode; must be 'stdio' when run via an MCP client.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Pitstop — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Pitstop?
Pitstop 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 pitstop-f1 was installed 33 times last week.
How do I connect Pitstop?
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 pitstop-f1 straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Pitstop?
The pypi package pitstop-f1 was installed 33 times in the last week. Week over week that is -21%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Pitstop open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python 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.
