Install sysmcp in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code
The registry entry has no remote endpoint or installable package.
What the publisher says
From the sysmcp repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
sysmcp
MCP server that exposes live host signal — CPU, memory, processes, network — to Cursor / Claude. Default path is /proc (no root). Optional eBPF tools activate when CAPBPF / CAPPERFMON is available.
Repo: https://github.com/arunmm8335/sysmcp · Version: 0.5.0
Tools
True per-connection byte counters need sock-level eBPF; ifacerates + ebpftraffic are the practical deeper network signal today.
Browser dashboard (HTTP)
go build -o sysmcp ./cmd/sysmcp
./sysmcp serve
# open http://127.0.0.1:8787/Optional: ./sysmcp serve -addr 127.0.0.1:9000
APIs: /api/dashboard, /api/poll (JSON).
Interactive views in Cursor
Ask “Open the host dashboard” / “Refresh the host dashboard”. The agent calls hostdashboard and opens a Cursor Canvas** beside the chat.
MCP Apps resource ui://sysmcp/dashboard remains for hosts that render Apps iframes. Cursor often uses Canvas + JSON instead.

Release binaries (linux amd64 / arm64) ship on each v* tag:
https://github.com/arunmm8335/sysmcp/releases
# example amd64
curl -fsSL -o sysmcp.tgz \
https://github.com/arunmm8335/sysmcp/releases/download/v0.5.0/sysmcp_0.5.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz
tar -xzf sysmcp.tgzOr from source:
go install github.com/arunmm8335/sysmcp/cmd/sysmcp@latest
# or

cd sysmcp
go build -o sysmcp ./cmd/sysmcpMCP Registry (one-click)
Namespace: io.github.arunmm8335/sysmcp. Tag releases build .mcpb assets and attempt an OIDC publish via mcp-publisher. To publish manually after a release (recommended if OIDC is not set up):
# fill fileSha256 in server.json from the release *.mcpb.sha256 files, then:
curl -fsSL -o mcp-publisher.tgz \

Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
sysmcp: common questions
- Is sysmcp MCP server safe?
- Mostly: it is graded B (80/100). Read the sysmcp safety report
- Does sysmcp need an API key?
- Not as far as the registry entry and our scan can tell: no credentials are declared or required.
- Is sysmcp maintained?
- The last commit was 112 days ago (2026-07-15). The latest release is v0.5.0.
- What can I use instead of sysmcp?
- Servers from other publishers that do the same job: SSH — policy-gated remote access MCP server.
