Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Tanvo 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 tanvo-mcp -- npx -y tanvo-mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

  "mcpServers": {
    "tanvo-mcp": {

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: TANVO_API_KEY (API key from tanvo.ai Settings → API keys. Optional: without it only the free house image engine runs.), TANVO_OUTPUT_DIR (Optional folder to save results into). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Tanvo — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Tanvo?
Tanvo 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 tanvo-mcp was installed 402 times last week.
How do I connect Tanvo?
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 tanvo-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Tanvo?
The npm package tanvo-mcp was installed 402 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 Tanvo open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
