Citeguard — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Citeguard?
Citeguard 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 pypi package citationguard was installed 160 times last week.
How do I connect Citeguard?
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 citationguard straight from pypi; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Citeguard?
The pypi package citationguard was installed 160 times in the last week. Week over week that is +17%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Citeguard open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python, 1 stars on GitHub and 3 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
