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

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: MC_USER_AGENT (Override the User-Agent sent to Metacritic.), MC_MIN_INTERVAL_MS (Minimum milliseconds between requests. Default 1000, floor 500.), MC_LOG_LEVEL (silent, error, info or debug. Default error.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

MCP Metacritic — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for MCP Metacritic?

MCP Metacritic 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 mcp-metacritic was installed 70 times last week.

How do I connect MCP Metacritic?

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 mcp-metacritic straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use MCP Metacritic?

The npm package mcp-metacritic was installed 70 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 MCP Metacritic open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 0 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
