What the publisher says
From the Cron Tools repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
dev-mcp-servers
Ten small MCP servers for everyday development and security checks. Each one is a separate npm package you add to Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor or any other MCP client with one line, and each does one job well: look up vulnerabilities, grade security headers, decode a JWT, test a regex, explain a cron expression, validate JSON against a schema, lint an OpenAPI document or a Dockerfile, read statistics out of a git repository, or build an llms.txt.
All servers are TypeScript on the official @modelcontextprotocol/sdk, speak stdio only, validate every input with zod, bound their inputs and run time, send no telemetry, and ship with node:test suites that cover every tool.
Servers
Every package README lists its tools with inputs and outputs, the exact claude mcp add command, a .mcp.json snippet, and what the server touches on disk and on the network.
Quick start
With Claude Code:
claude mcp add jwt-tools -- npx -y @basitalisandhu/mcp-jwt-tools@0.2.0
claude mcp listAdd -s user to install for every project rather than the current one. For clients that read .mcp.json (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor), add an entry per server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"jwt-tools": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@basitalisandhu/mcp-jwt-tools@0.2.0"] },
"osv-advisories": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@basitalisandhu/mcp-osv-advisories@0.2.0"] }
}
}Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
