Open VSX MCP

Keyless MCP server for Open VSX: VS Code extensions, versions, descriptions, download stats.

Pairs well with npm-search-mcp, pypi-mcp, and hex-mcp for the full package-manager set.

Quick start

npm install
npm run build
node dist/index.js

The server uses stdio, so it can be connected to Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, MCP Inspector, or another compatible MCP client.

Tools at a glance

  • search_extensions: Descriptions, download counts.
  • get_extension: Version, license, links, recent versions.

Limits and privacy

This project is intentionally narrow. It should be treated as a practical helper, not a complete certification or security audit. Check the implementation and the returned data before using it with sensitive material. No credentials are required.
