01 · Install Context Sync

Claude Code

claude mcp add intina47-context-sync -- npx -y @context-sync/server

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "intina47-context-sync": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@context-sync/server"

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

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

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.

npm package @context-sync/server - the @context-sync scope differs from the repo owner (intina47); confirm it's the project's official package

registry namespace io.github.Intina47 is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
