01 · Install Typesense Kit

before you install - you'll need

Set TYPESENSE_URL, TYPESENSE_API_KEY, TYPESENSEKIT_READ_ONLY, TYPESENSE_DATA_DIR before connecting.

Claude Code

claude mcp add akshitkrnagpal-typesensekit -- npx -y @typesensekit/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

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

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

Security posture

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions

license MIT - declared in the repository

npm package @typesensekit/mcp - the @typesensekit scope differs from the repo owner (akshitkrnagpal); confirm it's the project's official package

registry namespace io.github.akshitkrnagpal is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
