01 · Install Codeledger

before you install - you'll need

The README does not document required environment variables for a basic install.

Claude Code

claude mcp add codeledgerecf-codeledger -- npx -y @codeledger/cli

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codeledgerecf-codeledger": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@codeledger/cli"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key

02 · Evidence

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

license no standard license detected - usage rights unclear; check the repo before commercial use

npm package @codeledger/cli - the @codeledger scope differs from the repo owner (codeledgerecf); confirm it's the project's official package

registry namespace io.github.codeledgerECF is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
