freshdeps-mcp

MCP server exposing live npm / PyPI dependency-health verdicts so AI coding agents can check a package before recommending it — closing the 6–18 month staleness gap in model training data.

Returns a concise human-readable summary and structured content: maintenance signal (active/slowing/stale/abandoned/unknown), latest version, last release/commit age, deprecation/yank/archived flags, known CVE count (OSV), and a hand-verified alternative if the package is dead.

It calls ${FRESHDEPS_API_BASE}/api/verdict (default https://freshdeps.vercel.app).
