Nothing serious here today

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

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: PKG_META_URL (Override remote snapshot URL), PKG_META_LOCAL_ONLY (Skip remote fetch). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

package-meta — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for package-meta?

package-meta 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 @weiseer/package-meta-mcp was installed 37 times last week.

How do I connect package-meta?

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 @weiseer/package-meta-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use package-meta?

The npm package @weiseer/package-meta-mcp was installed 37 times in the last week. Week over week that is +147%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is package-meta open source?

We cannot say either way: written in JavaScript and 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
