Allows querying Python package metadata from the Python Package Index (PyPI), including package information, versions, and dependencies via the PyPI JSON 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-pypi show details for the flask package"
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.

Tool | Description |
| Get metadata for a Python package on PyPI (the Python Package Index). Returns the latest version, summary, author, license, project URLs, required Python version, keywords, classifiers, and the release artifact files that |
| Get metadata for a specific version of a Python package on PyPI. Returns the summary, required Python version, the full dependency list (requires_dist, i.e. what pip would resolve), and the downloadable files for that version. Use to inspect a pinned release like requests 2.31.0. |
| List all published version strings for a Python package on PyPI, sorted, plus the latest version. Useful to see a package's release history or check which versions are available to pip install. |
| Get recent download counts for a Python package (last day, last week, last month) from pypistats.org. Gauges how popular a pip package is. |
