01 · Install Fireweed

before you install - you'll need

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

Claude Code

claude mcp add starksood-fireweed-mcp -- uvx fireweed-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "starksood-fireweed-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "fireweed-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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

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

repo age created 2026-08-24 - young repo, little track record yet

license no standard license detected - usage rights unclear; check the repo before commercial use

pypi package fireweed-mcp - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)

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