mcp-npm
Provides tools for searching npm packages, retrieving package details and dependencies, listing versions, and fetching download statistics through the npm Registry API.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@mcp-npmwhat's the download count for axios over the last month?"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.

npm MCP — wraps the npm Registry API (free, no auth)
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1394+ live data sources.
Tools
Tool | Description |
| Search npm for packages by keyword. Returns package names, descriptions, latest versions, publish dates, and publishers. Use when discovering libraries for a task. |
| Get full details for a specific package: version, description, dependencies, homepage, repository, and license. Use after search_packages to evaluate a candidate package. |
| Fetch npm download counts for a package over a named period (last-day, last-week, last-month, last-year) or a custom date range like "2024-01-01:2024-06-30". Returns total downloads, start date, and end date. |
| List published versions of an npm package with publish dates, dist-tags (latest/next/beta), and deprecation notices — answers "what versions of exist", "when was last published", "is the latest version deprecated". Returns versions newest-first, plus the package created/last-modified timestamps. |
| Get metadata for a SPECIFIC version (or dist-tag) of an npm package: dependencies, dev/peer dependencies, engines, license, tarball + integrity hash + unpacked size, and any deprecation notice. Use for "dependencies of @", pinned-version audits, or inspecting a particular release. Version accepts an exact version (e.g. "4.18.2"), a dist-tag (e.g. "latest", "next"), or omit for the latest. |
