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 mcp-freescout -- npx -y @verygoodplugins/mcp-freescout
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-freescout": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@verygoodplugins/mcp-freescout"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.mcp-freescout]

args = ["-y", "@verygoodplugins/mcp-freescout"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-freescout": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@verygoodplugins/mcp-freescout"

        "@verygoodplugins/mcp-freescout"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: FREESCOUT_URL (Your FreeScout instance URL (e.g., https://support.example.com)), FREESCOUT_API_KEY (FreeScout API key with read/write permissions), FREESCOUT_DEFAULT_USER_ID (Default user ID for ticket operations). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

MCP FreeScout — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for MCP FreeScout?
MCP FreeScout 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 @verygoodplugins/mcp-freescout was installed 258 times last week.
How do I connect MCP FreeScout?
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 @verygoodplugins/mcp-freescout straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use MCP FreeScout?
The npm package @verygoodplugins/mcp-freescout was installed 258 times in the last week. Week over week that is +106%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is MCP FreeScout open source?
Yes — it is published under the GPL-3.0 licence, written in TypeScript, 29 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
