01 · Install Clawops

before you install - you'll need

The README does not document required environment variables for a basic install.

Claude Code

claude mcp add dfridkin-clawops -- npx -y @clawops/cli

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dfridkin-clawops": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@clawops/cli"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

02 · Evidence

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 MPL-2.0 - declared in the repository

npm package @clawops/cli - the @clawops scope differs from the repo owner (dfridkin); confirm it's the project's official package

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

Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.

What you can build

With this server connected, an agent can run diagnostics: local prerequisites, and with a stack, remote health, list all stacks and their state, read a remote config value, and list running agents.
