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 opn-mcp -- npx -y opn-mcp
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "opn-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "opn-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}
~/.codex/config.toml
[mcp_servers.opn-mcp]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "opn-mcp"]
.cursor/mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "opn-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "opn-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}
.vscode/mcp.json

        "opn-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: OPN_API_KEY (Your opn.onl API key (create one under Settings → API Keys).), OPN_BASE_URL (API base URL. Set this to your own instance's API for a self-hosted opn.onl.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Opn MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Opn MCP?
Opn MCP 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 opn-mcp was installed 40 times last week.
How do I connect Opn 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 runs locally, so the command pulls opn-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Opn MCP?
The npm package opn-mcp was installed 40 times in the last week. Week over week that is -22%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Opn MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 2 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.
