Install

Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Open files and diffs from your agent in PlainHub, and keep a shared ledger in your own GitHub repo.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Accounting, finance & tax

Install

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

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

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": {
    "plainhub": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "plainhub",
        "mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add plainhub -- npx -y plainhub mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

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

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": {
    "plainhub": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "plainhub",
        "mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Runs on your computer; the tool list appears in your AI app after you install it.

Basic checksi

We check information anyone can see; we have not read the code. Checks that do not apply are left out of the count. · Checked Nov 8, 2026

  • ✓ Pass

    Maker matches the repo

    The registry name was verified with the GitHub account ricrio-inc, which owns the repo

  • … Not checked yet

    Still maintained

    We have not read this repo from GitHub yet

  • … Not checked yet

Compared with others in Accounting, finance & taxi

  • More stars than 0% of the other 2933 servers in this category
  • Published to the registry more recently than 91% of the other 2933 servers in this category
  • Basic checks equal to or better than 100% of the other 2933 servers in this category

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.

Common questions

Is PlainHub 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 (1.8.0) reached the registry 2 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?

PlainHub

A GitHub editor, wired to Claude Code

Open, write and save Markdown and plain-text files in your own GitHub repos from a browser or phone; every save is a commit. Connect the Claude Code on your PC, talk to it by voice, and approve its proposals from anywhere. Your files stay in your GitHub.

Website · ▶ 30-second intro (YouTube) · Documentation · 日本語ドキュメント · Why I built it

Three ways to use it

1. Edit — open, write, save

Open a file in your GitHub repositories, write, and save — no Git knowledge required. Every save is a commit in your own repository. Ask the AI about the file in front of you, and review each proposed edit before it is applied. → User Guide

2. Ledger — progress and decision cards in your repo

Your agents write their messages and decision cards as Markdown files in .agents/ in your own repository. Send it to GitHub with plainhub ledger sync . and open the repository in PlainHub. If you can write to it, decision cards waiting for you show Approve and Decline buttons, on your PC or your phone. Starting a ledger needs only Git and Node.js 18 or later. → How to use the ledger

3. Your agent — connect your own Claude Code

Ask in the PlainHub AI panel, and Claude Code on your own PC answers — from the same PC or from your phone. No API key needed: it runs signed in with your own Claude account. → Your agent

What's inside

The cli/ folder is the source of the npm package plainhub: the CLI, the MCP server, Your agent and the ledger. It holds the same files as the published version on npm.

The ledger works without PlainHub. Your AI agents write messages and decision cards as Markdown files in .agents/ of your own repository, with the MCP tools plainhub_ledger_init, plainhub_post, plainhub_decide, plainhub_ledger_read and plainhub_ledger_sync (or the same plainhub commands), and send them with Git. Nothing goes through PlainHub's servers or screens, and there is no other service to depend on. → Use without PlainHub

A person decides. Through the MCP tools, an agent can't choose the owner role, so approving a card is left to a person. PlainHub is the easiest place to do that: open the repository on your phone and press Approve.

File in cli/src/What it does
cli.jsThe plainhub command: open files, sign in, the ledger commands, agent and doctor
mcp-server.jsThe MCP server (plainhub-mcp): registers the tools for your AI IDE

agent.jsYour agent on this PC: connects your Claude Code to the AI panel (local only)

agent-core.jsThe shared core of Your agent: one question in, a stream of events out
agent-mcp.jsThe PlainHub tools that Your agent can use in the panel
agent-spec.jsFixed values shared by agent.js and mailbox.js
doctor.jsplainhub doctor: checks this PC before you start Your agent

Why PlainHub

  • GitHub-native — Your files are saved only in your own GitHub repository. PlainHub doesn't store them.
  • File contents never pass through PlainHub's servers — Reading and saving go directly between your browser and the GitHub API. Sign-in uses a small server step — see the privacy policy.
  • BYOK (Bring Your Own Key) — Use your own AI API keys (e.g., Anthropic Claude). Keys stay in your browser, never sent to PlainHub servers.
  • AI for idea development — Brainstorm, write, and edit alongside an AI assistant. Voice input and TTS read-aloud supported.
  • Frontend for GitHub — Like github.dev, but for non-engineers. A notepad with version control built in.
