Transport: stdio
Category: Other

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

Which app do you use?

ClaudeClaude CodeCursorVS CodeChatGPT

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "elicitly": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "elicitly"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add elicitly -- npx -y elicitly

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "elicitly": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "elicitly"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "elicitly": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "elicitly"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is Elicitly safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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 –, and the latest version (0.8.4) reached the registry 23 days 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.

What can I use instead?

Elicitly — Free Edition

Your AI has questions. Your users have answers. Elicitly connects them — human-in-the-loop for prompts and Agent Skills over MCP elicitation.

This repository is the open-source Free Edition: the elicitly local MCP server and the @elicitly/tools library. The hosted Pro Edition — durable approvals with review pages, an audit trail, and organization dashboards — lives at elicitly.ai.

Quick start

Run the local (stdio) MCP server straight from npm — no clone, no config:

npx -y elicitly

claude mcp add elicitly -- npx -y elicitly

Or skip the command line: in Claude Desktop, download elicitly.mcpb from the latest release and open it — a one-click, self-contained desktop extension.

Then ask your agent to call elicit_confirm ("Ship it?"), elicit_form (your own JSON schema), elicit_doctor (does this host actually support elicitation?), or elicit_display (show a LiquidJS template rendered inline as an MCP App).

Packages

Package	What it is
`elicitly`	The local stdio MCP server (`npx -y elicitly`)
`@elicitly/tools`	Embeddable toolkit: register the elicitation tools on your own `McpServer`

Why

MCP has a native answer for asking a human — elicitation — but host support is inconsistent, and only an MCP _server_ can trigger it. Nobody wants to roll their own server just to ask a question. Elicitly is that server (or, via @elicitly/tools, the toolkit inside yours), plus the diagnostic (elicit_doctor) that makes real-world host support visible — feeding the public Support Matrix.
