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.

Put your own values in place of <CRONOMETER_USERNAME> (Your Cronometer account email), <CRONOMETER_PASSWORD> (Your Cronometer account password). The author’s registry entry marks them as required.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: CRONOMETER_TOTP_SECRET (Base32 key for accounts with two-factor authentication), CRONOMETER_ACCOUNT_TZ (Optional IANA timezone override, for example America/Los_Angeles).

Cronometer API MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Cronometer API MCP?
Cronometer API 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 pypi package cronometer-api-mcp was installed 515 times last week.
How do I connect Cronometer API 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 runs locally, so the command pulls cronometer-api-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Cronometer API MCP?
The pypi package cronometer-api-mcp was installed 515 times in the last week. Week over week that is -22%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Cronometer API MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python, 70 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.
