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: Search & AI memory

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?

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": {
    "uibeats": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@uibeats/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add uibeats -- npx -y @uibeats/mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "uibeats": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@uibeats/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": {
    "uibeats": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@uibeats/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.

Common questions

Is UI Beats 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 (0.1.3) reached the registry 3 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.

What can I use instead?

@uibeats/mcp

MCP server for UI Beats. Lets a coding agent search the component catalogue, read a component's full source and props, and install it, without anyone opening the website.

Install

Claude Code:

claude mcp add uibeats -- npx -y @uibeats/mcp

Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop and anything else that reads an mcpServers block:

"mcpServers": { "uibeats": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@uibeats/mcp"] } } }

Tools

Tool	What it does
`search_components`	Rank the catalogue against a plain-language query or a name
`get_component`	Full docs for one component: props table, usage example, complete source
`list_components`	Everything available, grouped by category
`get_install_command`	The exact `shadcn` command, plus the npm packages it pulls in

A typical exchange: the agent calls search_components("card that flips"), then get_component("flip-card") to read the real props before writing any JSX, then get_install_command("flip-card") and runs it.

How it works

There is no backend. The server is a cached client over two static files the site already publishes:

/r/components.json: the search index (names, descriptions, props, guidance)
/docs/ / .md: the canonical document for one component

The catalogue is cached in memory for ten minutes, and a stale copy is kept as a fallback so a brief network failure does not break every tool call.

Configuration

Variable	Default	Purpose

Development

This package is standalone: it is not part of the site's Yarn install.
