Starts CodeZaiku, the coding and development harness for local models and hosted APIs, as an MCP server over stdio. Any MCP client that can run npx can run it:

{ "mcpServers": { "codezaiku": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@wyrdsekai/codezaiku-mcp"] } } }

claude mcp add --scope user codezaiku -- npx -y @wyrdsekai/codezaiku-mcp

There is no Java in this package and no copy of the program. The launcher finds an installed CodeZaiku and starts codezaiku mcp. When none is installed it fetches the release of the same version from GitHub, checks it against the release's own SHA256SUMS (no sums, no install), unpacks it under ~/.codezaiku/launcher, and starts it: the small tarball when Java 21 or newer is on the machine, otherwise the build for this platform that carries its own runtime, so nothing has to be installed first. The model server is named in CODEZAIKU_DRIVE or ~/.codezaiku/config.

Nothing but the MCP stream is written to stdout. Every message from the launcher goes to stderr.

variable	meaning
`CODEZAIKU_PREFIX`	where the one-line installer put the program (default `~/.local`, or `%LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs`)
`CODEZAIKU_DRIVE`	the model server (an OpenAI-style endpoint)
