Package Intel MCP — by Datakoot

Software supply-chain intelligence for AI agents — as MCP tools your agent can call mid-task, so it can vet a dependency before it installs it. Covers npm, PyPI and crates.io. No API keys.

Tools

Tool	What it does	Source
package_info	Metadata for a package: description, latest version, license, homepage & repo links	npm / PyPI / crates.io
package_versions	Full version history with release dates	npm / PyPI / crates.io
package_downloads	Download counts and popularity signal	npm / PyPI / crates.io
package_dependencies	Direct dependencies for a given version	deps.dev
package_health	Health signals: OpenSSF Scorecard, stars, dependents	deps.dev
package_search	Search for packages by keyword	npm / PyPI / crates.io

Every tool accepts an ecosystem of npm, pypi, or crates. No API keys required.

Quick start

claude mcp add --transport http package-intel https://package.datakoot.com/mcp

Or point any MCP client at https://package.datakoot.com/mcp.

Try it in 10 seconds — no key, no signup

Paste this into a terminal:

curl -s https://package.datakoot.com/mcp \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 1, "method": "tools/call", "params": {"name": "package_health", "arguments": {"ecosystem": "npm", "name": "express"}}}'

You get a supply-chain health snapshot for the npm package express — versions, downloads, dependencies, maintenance signals — no API key, nothing to sign up for.

Or point any MCP client at the URL and just ask your agent, in plain language:

• "How healthy is the npm package express?"
• "Before I add left-pad, is it actively maintained and widely used?"
