What the code does

Evidence

Things with no honest explanation: a promise that contradicts the code, code that runs at install time while hiding what it does, data leaving the machine.

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.

    const fullPath = path.join(appPath, rel);

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

We found things in this code

Code changes quietly between releases, and nobody reads the diff of a dependency. We do, on every release — watch Symfony Agent MCP and you get told the day something new turns up.

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.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: SYMFONY_MCP_DYNAMIC_TOOLS (Progressive tool discovery. Left on, tools/list advertises five discovery meta-tools and the rest become callable once a category is activated (~828 tokens on connect). Set to false to advertise all 1,677 up front (~154,000).), SYMFONY_MCP_TOKEN_BUDGET (Token ceiling for the schemas a session may have active at once.), SYMFONY_MCP_ALLOWED_PATHS (Colon-separated allowlist of directories the server may read. Any app_path outside them is refused.), SYMFONY_MCP_SESSION_SECRET (Enables session-token authentication. Unset, authentication is off.), SYMFONY_MCP_SESSION_TOKEN (Client-side token, required only once SYMFONY_MCP_SESSION_SECRET is set.), SYMFONY_MCP_AUDIT (Encrypted audit log of every tool call.), SYMFONY_MCP_DLP (Scan every result for credentials before returning it. Turning this off is reported as CRITICAL by the startup audit.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Symfony Agent MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Symfony Agent MCP?
Symfony Agent 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 @shakaran/symfony-agent-mcp was installed 66 times last week.
How do I connect Symfony Agent 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 @shakaran/symfony-agent-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Symfony Agent MCP?
The npm package @shakaran/symfony-agent-mcp was installed 66 times in the last week. Week over week that is +57%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Symfony Agent MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 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.
