How do I install the Presend dependency checks MCP server?

Presend dependency checks is a hosted endpoint at https://presend.pages.dev/mcp-deps, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 5 exposed · ~941 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
maintainer_change_check ~196

Publisher-change analysis is npm only. Also reports whether the package exists (found) and its age (first_published, package_age_days, new_package if first published less than 30 days ago), for npm and for PyPI; on PyPI only existence and age are available. Flags a previously unseen human publisher taking over a package after 180+ days of inactivity, within the last 365 days (the event-stream attack pattern). npm trusted publishing (verified OIDC identity, not just a bot-like account name), pre-release, and handovers to a publisher who already maintains another widely used package (100k+ weekly downloads) are reported but not flagged. Does not detect hijacked existing accounts; a heuristic for review, not proof.

NameTypeReqDescription
ecosystemstringyesnpm (full analysis) or pypi (existence and age only).
packagestringyesPackage name, e.g. lodash

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

repo_health_check ~121

Maintenance signals for a GitHub repository given as owner/name: stars, forks, open issues, license, archived and fork flags, creation date and age, days since last push, topics. Use it to judge whether a dependency looks maintained or abandoned. For an npm or PyPI package whose repository you do not know, supply_chain_check resolves it from registry metadata and includes these signals. GitHub only; missing or private repositories return found: false.

NameTypeReqDescription
repostringyesGitHub repository in owner/name format, e.g. lodash/lodash.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

supply_chain_check ~322

Call this before installing or adding a package (npm install, pip install, a new entry in a manifest), especially one whose name you recalled or that a model suggested. One-call risk check: combines vulnerability_check (OSV.dev), typosquat_check, maintainer_change_check (npm only) and repo_health_check (when the GitHub repo can be resolved) into one overall verdict. A package that does not exist on npm or PyPI gets overall_risk 'package_not_found': the name may be invented and should not be installed. A package first published less than 30 days ago gets the 'new_package' flag and overall_risk 'review_recommended': new packages are where invented and look-alike names get registered, so the name is worth confirming against the project's own documentation before installing (on PyPI the age is that of the oldest release still published; being new does not make a package malicious). Use the individual tools to investigate one signal. Vulnerabilities are checked for the given version, or the latest published one (version_checked, version_source). If a check could not run (rate limit, upstream error), it is listed in unavailable_checks and overall_risk is 'incomplete', never 'no_signals_found'.

NameTypeReqDescription
ecosystemstringyesPackage ecosystem, e.g. npm. maintainer-change-check only runs for npm.
packagestringyesPackage name to check.
versionstring–Exact version to check for known vulnerabilities. Optional: defaults to the latest published version (npm and PyPI).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

typosquat_check ~147

Call before installing a package whose name you typed or recalled. Checks whether an npm or PyPI package name is a near-miss of a well-known package (typosquatting), with an edit-distance threshold scaled to name length; names of 3 characters or fewer are not fuzzy-matched. Uses a curated list of popular names, so a clean result does not prove a package is safe. It does not check that the package exists: supply_chain_check does.

NameTypeReqDescription
ecosystemstringyesPackage ecosystem, e.g. npm or PyPI.
packagestringyesPackage name to check for likely typosquatting of a well-known package in the given ecosystem.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

vulnerability_check ~155

Checks a package (optionally a specific version) against OSV.dev for known vulnerabilities: npm, PyPI, Go, crates.io, Maven, RubyGems, Packagist and NuGet. For npm and PyPI, a name that does not exist returns found: false and vulnerable: null, never a clean result. Use supply_chain_check for a combined verdict.

NameTypeReqDescription
ecosystemstringyesPackage ecosystem, e.g. npm, PyPI, Go, crates.io, Maven, RubyGems, Packagist, or NuGet.
packagestringyesPackage name to check against OSV.dev for known CVEs.
versionstring–Omit to check all versions of the package.

Common questions

What is the Presend dependency checks MCP server?

Presend dependency checks is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.presendapp/presend-deps. Check an npm/PyPI package before an AI agent installs it: 5 focused supply-chain tools. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://presend.pages.dev/mcp-deps).

Is the Presend dependency checks MCP server safe to use?

Presend dependency checks scores 70 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the Presend dependency checks MCP server expose?

Presend dependency checks exposes 5 tools: maintainer_change_check, repo_health_check, supply_chain_check, typosquat_check, vulnerability_check. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 941 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the Presend dependency checks MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to Presend dependency checks without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the Presend dependency checks MCP server still maintained?

Presend dependency checks is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 4 October 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
