Installation

Ajoutez ceci à la configuration MCP de votre client (Claude Desktop : claude_desktop_config.json ; Cursor : .cursor/mcp.json ; VS Code et les autres utilisent la même forme « mcpServers »).

Remote (streamable-http)
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http depscope 'https://mcp.depscope.dev/mcp'
Configuration JSON (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code)

            "url": "https://mcp.depscope.dev/mcp"
        }
    }
}
NPM package depscope-mcp
Claude Code
claude mcp add depscope -- npx -y depscope-mcp@0.9.0

DepScope MCP Server

Package intelligence MCP server for AI agents. Stops AI coding agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot) from installing hallucinated, deprecated, or malicious packages across 19 ecosystems.

→ Backed by depscope.dev — 1.2M+ packages indexed, 19,000+ vulnerabilities tracked, real-time.

What's new in v0.9.0

The MCP server now sends a system-prompt directive to your AI client at handshake (server.instructions). Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf and other MCP clients receive a proactive-invocation brief automatically — manual rule files (CLAUDE.md, .cursorrules, .windsurfrules) are now optional. Existing rules still work; they're just redundant.

What the model sees at every session start:

  • The 19-ecosystem coverage list
  • An "INVOKE PROACTIVELY" directive with explicit triggers (install, version bump, lockfile change, "module not found" errors, library comparison)
  • Three pillars: token-saving, energy-saving, security
  • Standard invocation flow: check_malicious → check_typosquat → check_package → install_command

For Claude Code there is also a companion plugin that bundles the MCP server with a skill carrying rich frontmatter triggers:

git clone https://github.com/cuttalo/depscope-claude-plugin ~/.claude/plugins/depscope

All npm versions <0.9.0 are now deprecated. Run npm update -g depscope-mcp if you installed globally.


Why this exists

LLMs frequently invent package names that look real but don't exist (fastapi-turbo, lodahs, tokio-stream-extras). When an agent tries to install one, it might hit an attacker's typosquat. DepScope verifies every package before install.

Quick start

Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf (remote MCP)

Add to your MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "depscope": {
      "url": "https://mcp.depscope.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
Local (stdio via npx)
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "depscope": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "depscope-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Comment installer DepScope ?

Il fonctionne comme serveur distant. Dans Claude Code : claude mcp add --transport http depscope 'https://mcp.depscope.dev/mcp'. Pour les autres clients, collez la configuration JSON de cette page dans leurs réglages MCP.

Faut-il une clé API pour DepScope ?

Son entrée au registre n'indique aucune clé ni secret obligatoire. Certaines fonctions peuvent tout de même demander un compte auprès du service auquel il se connecte.

DepScope est-il open source ?

Son code est public sur GitHub, mais le dépôt ne déclare pas de licence standard.

Qui maintient DepScope ?

Il est publié par cuttalo. AI.tn le référence sans le maintenir ni le recommander.

Issu du registre MCP officiel. Être listé n'est pas une recommandation : vérifiez le code et les permissions d'un serveur avant de lui donner accès à vos données.
