Stateark MCP Server
Never explain your project to an AI twice. Your chat is a workspace, not an archive. StateArk turns a working session into a versioned, portable project state that any new chat can pick up. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
People connecting developer tools tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

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 2026-08-13 - young repo, little track record yet
license no standard license detected - usage rights unclear; check the repo before commercial use
npm package stateark - unscoped; check the name against the project README before installing
registry namespace io.github.Askrion is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
