README
npm-search-mcp
MCP server that searches npm packages and returns live registry data. No API key needed.
Tools
- search_packages — Search npm for packages by keyword. Returns names, descriptions, download counts, and links.
- get_package — Get detailed info about a specific package: version, dependencies, size, weekly downloads.
- compare_packages — Compare 2-10 packages side by side with download stats, size, and quality scores.
