Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Dev MCP 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 dev-mcp -- npx -y @sketchxflow/dev-mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dev-mcp": {

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: SKETCHXFLOW_API_KEY (Optional. Overrides the key obtained by signing in with sketchxflow_dev_login — for CI or shared runners.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Dev MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Dev MCP?
Dev 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 @sketchxflow/dev-mcp was installed 427 times last week.
How do I connect Dev 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 @sketchxflow/dev-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Dev MCP?
The npm package @sketchxflow/dev-mcp was installed 427 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.
