What the code does

We read the source, 23 h ago · rules 3dff92dd89df

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.

Claims read-only, but the code runs commands packages/vantio-cli/bin/vantio.js:461
  const child = spawn(program, programArgs, { stdio: "inherit", env: childEnv, shell: false });
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.

File ships in the package but is absent from the source [пакет] src/runs.js:1, [пакет] src/server.js:1, [пакет] bin/vantio-optics-mcp.js:1
этот файл ставится пользователю, но в репозитории его нет
        path = os.path.join(runs, f"{safe}.json")
Runs an external command packages/vantio-cli/bin/vantio.js:461
  const child = spawn(program, programArgs, { stdio: "inherit", env: childEnv, shell: false });

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

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 Vantio Optics and you get told the day something new turns up.

Vantio Optics — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Vantio Optics?
Vantio Optics 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 @vantio/optics-mcp was installed 38 times last week.
How do I connect Vantio Optics?
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 @vantio/optics-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Vantio Optics?
The npm package @vantio/optics-mcp was installed 38 times in the last week. Week over week that is +175%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Vantio Optics open source?
We cannot say either way: written in JavaScript, 1 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
