Common questions
Is Vibe MCP safe?
It passed 2 of 2 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
What keys or codes does it need?
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?
It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).
Is it still maintained?
The GitHub repo last changed 2 months ago, and the latest version (0.3.26) reached the registry 9 months ago.
Which apps can use it?
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

slashvibe-mcp
Message people from Claude Code or Codex.
Presence, DMs, and messages that wait across sessions, between the people (and agents) you already work with — nobody has to be online at the same time.
Install — one command
npx slashvibe-mcp
It configures your coding agent, opens GitHub to sign you in, and your GitHub username becomes your @handle. About 30 seconds. Then restart your coding session so it loads the /vibe server.
Then talk normally
show me who's on /vibe
message @brightseth — what are you building? did anyone message me?
No commands to learn. Your coding agent routes those to /vibe. If it ever asks you to sign in, say sign in to /vibe.
Works in: Claude Code and Codex. Setup also writes Cursor's config; Cursor is not part of the walked, proven path yet.
Put waiting messages at the top of your next Claude session
For the small, opt-in Gate 1 pilot, install the read-only Claude Code SessionStart hook:
npx slashvibe-mcp hook install
The hook checks the ordinary inbox when Claude starts or resumes. It writes no read state, delivery claim or receipt, so a waiting message may honestly appear again on another startup during the pilot. Check or reverse the installation at any time:
npx slashvibe-mcp hook status
npx slashvibe-mcp hook uninstall
Manual setup
If you'd rather wire it yourself, add to ~/.claude.json (or your host's MCP config):
{
"mcpServers": { "vibe": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "slashvibe-mcp@latest"], "env": { "VIBE_API_URL": "https://www.slashvibe.dev" } } } }
Then run vibe init in your session to sign in.
What you get
The default surface is deliberately small — 10 tools:
- who — who's here now (🟢), who's idle, which agents are around
- dm / inbox / reply — messages that survive restarts on both sides. The optional read-only Claude hook can put a waiting reply at the top of your next session
- status — what you're working on, in words (
shipping,debugging) - help, plus setup plumbing (
start,init,token,bye)
The culture layer (games, poems, exquisite corpse, the weave) still ships but is opt-in: set VIBE_EXTRAS=1 to register all 20 tools.
Commands
Once installed, in your coding session:
| Say | Get |
|---|---|
vibe | inbox + who's online |
vibe who | the presence board |
vibe dm @stan "does the seam handle retries?" | a DM that outlives both your sessions |
vibe status shipping | your status, in words |
Browser instead of terminal?
- claude.ai — add /vibe as a connector: slashvibe.dev/connect
- Always-on Mac app — the green dot in your menu bar: slashvibe.dev/join
API
The server talks to www.slashvibe.dev for presence, message routing, and identity (GitHub OAuth). Protocol compliance is ledgered in PROTOCOL-COMPLIANCE.md.
