Nothing serious here today

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

ripsem — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for ripsem?

ripsem 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 ripsem was installed 18 times last week.

How do I connect ripsem?

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 ripsem straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use ripsem?

The npm package ripsem was installed 18 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is ripsem open source?

Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in Rust 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.
