Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Live npm and UNPKG data for AI agents: resolution, audits, import maps, malware/CVE checks.

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.

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 7, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • resolve_package

    Resolve a package name plus exact version, dist-tag, or semver range to the version that exists on npm today, with its browser entry points. Use this instead of recalling versions from memory.

  • list_files

    List the real files inside an exact or resolvable package version via UNPKG ?meta. Use this before choosing a file path; never guess paths.

  • build_file_url

    Build a direct UNPKG file URL (the original file lookup) with a deliberate version policy, verifying the file exists when a path is given.

  • audit_dependencies

    Classify a project's runtime dependencies for conversion to direct UNPKG file lookups, in framework context when given. Read the project's package.json yourself and pass its dependencies map; this tool checks each package against live npm/UNPKG data and returns convert_now / conv

  • verify_url

    Check that a UNPKG file URL actually resolves (follows redirects) before you put it in a project.

  • generate_importmap

    Resolve a set of bare specifiers to UNPKG file URLs and return a ready-to-paste import map. Entry files are resolved live from each package.

  • check_importmap

    Validate an existing or proposed import map: every UNPKG URL resolves, files exist, versions are mutually consistent (including react/react-dom pairing and duplicate-version skew), loose specs are flagged, and framework-managed packages are errors when a framework is given or det

  • search_packages

    Search npm for a need (e.g. 'date picker', 'markdown parser') and annotate each result with browser readiness for direct UNPKG file lookup: browser-ready ESM, CommonJS-only, or unclear, with the entry file and size when known. Ranking is npm's relevance order; readiness is annota

  • estimate_migration_impact

    Order-of-magnitude estimate of bandwidth offloaded (and hosting dollars, if a $/GB is given) when bytes move from first-party hosting to UNPKG. Range-based with explicit assumptions and caveats; it cannot forecast latency or Core Web Vitals. Get unpkgBytesPerPageLoad from audit_d

  • shield_whoami

    Return the Shield account, organization, and entitlements for the OAuth login on this connection. Requires an approved Shield account; anonymous connections get an authorization_required error with reconnect instructions.

  • shield_simulate_request

    Preview what Shield would do for one package@version request (optionally with referer/origin) under the logged-in user's effective pin/block rules, using the same rule-matching semantics as the edge.

  • shield_check_packages

    Check exact package@version pairs against Shield intel: malware verdict (with review state) and CVEs affecting that version, including the first patched version. Works anonymously for packages you name (25 per call); Shield login raises the cap to 200. Domain data still requires

  • shield_domain_packages

    List the caller's verified domains with package counts, or the packages Shield has observed on one domain. With includeThreats, one domain's packages come back annotated with malware verdicts and CVEs, ranked by the domain's own traffic. Requires Shield login.

  • shield_watchlist_status

    Return the logged-in org's monitored packages, blocklist entries, and pin policies as Shield currently holds them. Requires Shield login.

Common questions

Is UNPKG safe?

It passed 3 of 3 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 in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry today.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: ipdata MCP by usefulapi, MaxMind minFraud MCP by usefulapi, Lambda Labs MCP by usefulapi

unpkg-mcp

A remote MCP server for UNPKG. It gives AI agents live npm and UNPKG data for direct UNPKG file lookups: https://unpkg.com/ @ / .

Agents often recall npm details incorrectly — versions that don't exist, file paths that were never published, Node entry points offered as browser modules. This server resolves versions, lists real package files, audits projects for UNPKG conversion, validates import maps, and checks packages for malware and CVEs, all from live data.

Deployed at https://mcp.unpkg.com (landing page at /, MCP endpoint at /mcp).

Package safety checks

Every package the server resolves can also be checked against Shield's security data, in two ways:

  • Named packages. shield_check_packages takes exact package@version pairs and returns, for each one, a malware verdict with its review state (confirmed or provisional), the CVEs that affect that version, and the first patched version to upgrade to. Verdicts and CVE matches are computed for the exact version asked about — a clean result never comes from checking a different version.
  • Inside audits. audit_dependencies attaches the same verdict and CVE data to every version it resolves, so a flagged package is visible in the audit result next to its conversion recommendation.

No account is needed for either: named-package checks are anonymous (25 per call), and audit enrichment works the same signed out. A provisional verdict is reported as provisional; it is not presented as confirmed malicious.

With a Shield login, the checks extend to your own estate: shield_domain_packages (with threats enabled) returns the packages observed on your verified domains annotated with verdicts and CVEs, ranked by each domain's traffic, so the packages that matter most surface first.

Example prompts:

  • "Is lodash@4.17.20 safe to load? Check it for malware and CVEs, and tell me what to upgrade to."
  • "Check the packages in this audit for known compromises or CVEs before we convert anything."
  • *(Shield login)* "Which packages on my domains have CVEs or malware verdicts, worst first?"
Shield login

The general tools are anonymous. With a Shield account approved from the beta waitlist, your MCP client can also sign in via OAuth and the shield_* account tools unlock, scoped to your own organization.

Package-safety checks are not login-gated: shield_check_packages works anonymously for packages you name, and audit_dependencies includes verdicts and CVEs either way. Signing in adds your own domains, watchlist, and edge simulation.

Prompts, resources, and skill
  • Prompts: audit_project_for_unpkg, convert_this_page, find_browser_package.
  • Resources: the conversion playbook and version-specifier policy (unpkg://guidance/…), also served at GET /playbook.md.
  • Skill: skill/unpkg/SKILL.md provides the same guidance to agents without MCP.

Connect a client

Clients connect by URL. Per-client configuration is in examples/clients.md and in the picker on the landing page at https://mcp.unpkg.com/.

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http unpkg https://mcp.unpkg.com/mcp

For agents without MCP, copy skill/unpkg/ into the client's skills directory. At the project level, you can also paste examples/AGENTS.snippet.md into your project's AGENTS.md.

Try it out

With an agent connected, some useful prompts:

  • "Resolve react@^18 with the UNPKG MCP — what's the resolved version and browser entry point? Now try a version of react that doesn't exist."
  • "List the files in preact@10.26.4/dist, build a patch-policy URL for the module file, and verify it resolves."
  • "Audit this project for UNPKG conversion."
  • "Check this import map with the UNPKG MCP: …" (paste a map)
  • "Is lodash@4.17.20 safe to load? Check it for malware and CVEs, and tell me what to upgrade to."
  • "Based on the audit, estimate the migration impact for a site with 1M page views a month at $0.09/GB."

The server reports what it can verify and declines what it can't: import maps are validated as a system, audits keep framework-managed packages bundled, and estimates come back as ranges with assumptions rather than a single figure.

MCP Registry

server.json in this repo is the listing manifest for the official MCP Registry, under the namespace io.github.unpkg/unpkg-mcp.

Publishing (maintainers): install the mcp-publisher CLI from the MCP Registry project, then from this repo:

mcp-publisher login github

mcp-publisher publish

Note: the organization namespace requires an owner-level GitHub credential — the interactive device flow only grants your personal namespace. Use a classic PAT with read:org scope (see the MCP Registry authentication docs), and revoke it afterwards.

Releasing

The server is a remote endpoint, so most channels update themselves: connected clients see new tools as soon as the Worker deploys, Glama re-crawls this repo and the endpoint, skills.sh serves the skill from GitHub, and directory listings (awesome lists, mcp.so) are static entries that only change if the URL or description changes.

For a version release:

  1. Bump the version everywhere it appears, keeping all of them equal: package.json, src/version.ts, server.json, plugin/.claude-plugin/plugin.json, plugin/plugin.json, and the plugin entry in .claude-plugin/marketplace.json. (Tests fail if any of these drift.)
  2. Deploy the Worker (wrangler deploy).
  3. Tag the release on GitHub (vX.Y.Z with release notes).
  4. Republish the registry manifest: mcp-publisher publish. Downstream directories (PulseMCP, Smithery, and others) ingest from the official MCP Registry, so this is the step that updates them.
  5. If the plugin changed, publish the new plugin version in the Claude developer portal; marketplace users get it via claude plugin marketplace update.

Claude plugin

This repo is also a Claude Code plugin (and its own plugin marketplace). The plugin lives in plugin/ and bundles the MCP server above with the unpkg skill, so one install gives Claude Code both:

claude plugin marketplace add unpkg/unpkg-mcp

claude plugin install unpkg@unpkg

Connecting the plugin is the same anonymous-by-default server at https://mcp.unpkg.com/mcp; Shield tools still sign in only when used.

Layout: src/clients/ (npm, UNPKG, and Shield API clients), src/domain/ (audit, import-map checking, estimation, guidance), src/server.ts (MCP wiring). Golden projects in test/fixtures/projects/ pin audit classification behavior.

Environment (wrangler.jsonc vars): UNPKG_ORIGIN, NPM_REGISTRY, SHIELD_API_ORIGIN, OAUTH_ISSUER, OAUTH_RESOURCE, OAUTH_ENABLED.

Estimating impact

audit_dependencies reports entry-file byte totals. estimate_migration_impact turns those, plus a traffic figure, into a bandwidth-offload range (and a dollar range when a $/GB rate is supplied). It does not forecast latency: where a site already serves from a capable CDN, latency is usually unchanged, and the practical gains are bundle size, cacheability, and how quickly patched versions reach users.
