Claude Code
claude mcp add get-tmonier-argot -- npx -y @tmonier/argot Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
{
"mcpServers": {
"get-tmonier-argot": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@tmonier/argot"
]
}
}
} 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 MIT - declared in the repository
npm package @tmonier/argot - the @tmonier scope differs from the repo owner (get-tmonier); confirm it's the project's official package
registry namespace io.github.get-tmonier is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
