Sourcegraph MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Is Sourcegraph MCP Server working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 90 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 0 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

The registry lists Sourcegraph MCP Server as active — why does it not respond?

The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.

How do I connect Sourcegraph MCP Server?

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 is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Sourcegraph MCP Server need an API key?

No. Sourcegraph MCP Server completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

Is Sourcegraph MCP Server open source?

We cannot say either way: 14 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
