Nothing serious here today

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

Available tools 3

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

deps

deps_audit

Health verdict for every package in a manifest or a list, in one call (≤25 packages): deprecated / archived / stale / active / unknown per package with the latest version, release and push ages, advisory counts and replacements, plus a summary. Use when reviewing a repository's package.json or requirements.txt before an upgrade, an audit or a fork decision.

package

package_health

Is this package alive? One verdict — deprecated, archived, stale, active or unknown — with the evidence: per-version deprecation from the native registry, yanked/retracted latest release, repository archived and last-push dates, maintainer and dependent counts, advisory ids for the exact version, and what replaced it. Use when choosing, pinning or upgrading a dependency in npm, PyPI, crates.io, RubyGems, Go, Maven, NuGet or Packagist.

runtime

runtime_eol

Support and end-of-life dates for a runtime, OS, database or framework version from endoflife.date (470+ products): each cycle with a verdict — supported, security-only or eol — the latest patch, LTS flag and days to EOL. Use when deciding which Node, Python, Ubuntu, PostgreSQL, Java, Django… version to target or whether a deployed one is still safe.

Dependency Health MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Dependency Health MCP do?

It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: deps_audit, package_health, runtime_eol. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →

Is Dependency Health MCP working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 601 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Dependency Health MCP?

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 Dependency Health MCP need an API key?

No. Dependency Health MCP completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Dependency Health MCP?

It answers our handshake in 601 ms on average, which is faster than 24% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is Dependency Health MCP 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.
