Dependency check MCP

This MCP server allows agents to check Packagist package release facts and OSV vulnerabilities for PHP dependencies. It supports tools like check_package and check_dependency to verify package status and security advisories.

Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

check_package — Check a Packagist package
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

Read the current Packagist facts for one PHP package: latest stable version, required PHP, license, and whether it is abandoned. Use it before composer require. Send vendor/package. Set version to ask about one release; version_found is false when that release is absent, and the latest stable is still returned. This does not list vulnerabilities. The first 5 successful calls each UTC day from one network address are free and need no key. not_found and fetch_failed are not charged and do not use a free call. After the 5, send X-API-Key. A key call costs 0.04 credit on success. Key: https://firm.bestsmartgoods.com/signup

check_dependency — Check a dependency for known vulnerabilities
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

Look up known vulnerabilities for one package version from OSV. Returns advisory id, summary, CVE aliases, severity string, and fixed versions when the advisory lists them. Ecosystems: packagist, npm, pypi, go, crates.io, maven, rubygems, nuget. Omit ecosystem and a vendor/package name uses Packagist, otherwise npm. An empty list means OSV returned none, and that successful lookup is charged. This is not a full audit. The first 5 successful calls each UTC day from one network address are free and need no key. not_found and fetch_failed are not charged and do not use a free call. After the 5, send X-API-Key. A key call costs 0.04 credit on success. Key: https://firm.bestsmartgoods.com/signup

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http dependency-check-mcp https://deps.bestsmartgoods.com/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add dependency-check-mcp --url https://deps.bestsmartgoods.com/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable dependency-check-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dependency-check-mcp": {
      "url": "https://deps.bestsmartgoods.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure).
Cline configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dependency-check-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://deps.bestsmartgoods.com/mcp",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start dependency-check-mcp and inspect its tools.
VS Code configuration
{
  "servers": {
    "dependency-check-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://deps.bestsmartgoods.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http dependency-check-mcp https://deps.bestsmartgoods.com/mcp

Claude Desktop

Open Claude Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector, enter this server URL and enable it for the conversation. This is a manual remote-connector handoff, not a desktop JSON configuration.
Claude Desktop configuration
https://deps.bestsmartgoods.com/mcp

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
Windsurf configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dependency-check-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://deps.bestsmartgoods.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
