HAI-MCP MCP Server

local only

HAI-MCP runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 120 installs a week from pypi. Last commit 31 Oct 2026.

Model-agnostic MCP control plane for HAI: bounded missions, owner-gated actions, drift checks.

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.

Runs an external command src/hai_mcp/owner_gate.py:315
        proc = subprocess.run(

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 HAI-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.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: HAI_HOME (Directory for the global HAI state (missions, leases, proofs). Default: ~/.hai), HAI_OWNER_HOME (Directory for the owner out-of-band channel (one-time nonces). Deliberately outside HAI_HOME. Default: ~/.hai-owner), HAI_TRANSPORT (Transport selection: 'stdio' (default) or 'streamable-http'), HAI_HTTP_HOST (Host for streamable-http transport. Refused unless loopback or HAI_HTTP_TOKEN is set), HAI_HTTP_PORT (Port for streamable-http transport), HAI_HTTP_TOKEN (Bearer token required to accept non-loopback streamable-http connections. Loopback binds without a token).

HAI-MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for HAI-MCP?
HAI-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 pypi package hai-mcp was installed 120 times last week.
How do I connect HAI-MCP?
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 hai-mcp straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use HAI-MCP?
The pypi package hai-mcp was installed 120 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 HAI-MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python, 1 stars on GitHub and 5 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
