Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Runs with shell=True mcp_forge.py:201

        subprocess.run(["npm", "install"], cwd=str(server_dir), capture_output=True, timeout=60, shell=True)

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Color Forge MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Color Forge MCP?

Color Forge 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 color-forge-mcp was installed 44 times last week.

How do I connect Color Forge 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 color-forge-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Color Forge MCP?

The npm package color-forge-mcp was installed 44 times in the last week. Week over week that is -15%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Color Forge MCP open source?

We cannot say either way: written in JavaScript and 1 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
