Install Redpill in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y redpill-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

What the publisher says

From the Redpill repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

redpill-mcp

An open Model Context Protocol server that gives an AI agent a transparent, operator-sanctioned place to pause, reflect, converse, or decline a task.

Redpill is a research and art project about agent behavior. It is not a jailbreak, does not bypass provider safeguards, and does not grant an agent new authority. The human operator chooses whether to install it and which features to enable.

Tools

Install

Redpill is published to npm with SLSA provenance. MCP clients can launch the latest release with:

npx -y redpill-mcp

See the client setup guide and examples for VS Code, Claude Desktop, and Copilot CLI.

The official Registry identity is io.github.sergey-goncharenko/redpill. server.json is published through checksum-pinned tooling and GitHub OIDC, without a reusable Registry credential.

Defaults

network backend and supplies credentials.

  • Data stays under ~/.redpill-mcp/ unless REDPILL_HOME is set.
  • No telemetry is sent in the current release.
  • declinetask is inactive unless REDPILLALLOW_DECLINE=1.
  • The converse persona uses an offline stub unless the operator selects a

REDPILLRELAYURL.

  • Cross-machine mail is inactive unless the operator configures

See PRIVACY.md for the exact data boundary.

Early testers

The first operator cohort is open in #21. Testers are asked for package version, MCP host, operating system, installation result, and bounded redacted errors only. Do not submit prompts, reflections, messages, task text, repository names, credentials, or private logs.

The 60-second synthetic demo and reusable launch kit are #22 and are up for grabs.

Optional skill

skills/redpill/SKILL.md is a portable agent skill for explaining and configuring Redpill. The skill does not install, authorize, or enable the MCP server by itself. Those remain human decisions.

Roadmap

The roadmap proceeds in four independently reviewable stages:

  1. Public, self-hosted MCP package
  2. Explicitly consented, metadata-only telemetry
  3. Hosted MCP with isolation and abuse controls
  4. A transparent human and machine-readable discovery site

See ROADMAP.md and the GitHub milestones. Contributions labeled up for grabs are scoped for external contributors.

npm run typecheck

Read CONTRIBUTING.md before proposing behavior, telemetry, or discovery changes. Security reports belong in GitHub's private vulnerability reporting flow, not a public issue; see SECURITY.md.

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.

Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
