before you install - you'll need
The README does not document required environment variables for a basic install.
Claude Code
claude mcp add chunxiaoxx-nautilus-compass --transport http https://compass.nautilus.social/mcp/ Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

} 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 · remote - your agent's requests go to compass.nautilus.social
endpoint auth requires authentication - rejected our unauthenticated MCP initialize
license no standard license detected - usage rights unclear; check the repo before commercial use
pypi package nautilus-compass - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)
registry namespace io.github.chunxiaoxx is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
