Nothing serious here today

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

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.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: TERN_URL (Base URL of the Tern server instance (defaults to http://127.0.0.1:7430)), TERN_TOKEN (API Bearer token for authenticating with the Tern server). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Tern — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Tern?

Tern 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 @zyf8827/tern-mcp was installed 29 times last week.

How do I connect Tern?

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 @zyf8827/tern-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Tern?

The npm package @zyf8827/tern-mcp was installed 29 times in the last week. Week over week that is -5%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
