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 a command on install [пакет] package.json:1
postinstall: node scripts/install-git-hooks.mjs
  const result = spawnSync(invocation.command, invocation.args, {
Builds a file path from a variable src/cli/main.js:919, [пакет] src/cli/main.js:919
    ? path.join(rootDir, "toolspaces", toolspace, "adapters")

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.

Connect this server

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 axf -- npx -y @smartergpt/axf
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "axf": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@smartergpt/axf"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml

command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "@smartergpt/axf"]

  "mcpServers": {
    "axf": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@smartergpt/axf"
      ],

    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: AXF_PROJECT_ROOT (Canonical AXF project root for manifest and adapter discovery. Defaults to current working directory when no marker is found.), AXF_EXECUTION_ROOT (Canonical AXF execution root for runtime cwd and caller-facing execution. Defaults to current working directory.), AXF_WORKSPACE (Legacy alias that sets both the AXF project root and execution root.), AXF_REGISTRY_WORKSPACE (Legacy alias for AXF_PROJECT_ROOT.), AXF_EXECUTION_WORKSPACE (Legacy alias for AXF_EXECUTION_ROOT.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

AXF — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for AXF?
AXF 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 @smartergpt/axf was installed 146 times last week.
How do I connect AXF?
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 @smartergpt/axf straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use AXF?
The npm package @smartergpt/axf was installed 146 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 AXF open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in JavaScript, 0 stars on GitHub and 20 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
