Starlog tools (3)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

  • starlog_advise
  • starlog_facts
  • starlog_search

    Discover candidate packages for a capability: surfaces options for a need (org-sanctioned/private ones first when configured), with integration effort, best-for and skip-when notes. This is discovery \u2014 it surfaces what exists; to vet a specific named package (CVEs, license, maintenance), call starlog_facts. Use after you have a capability/need and want candidate package names.

What its tools let an agent do: 3 read

Install Starlog in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

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

claude mcp add starlog -- npx -y starloghq
Add to Cursor

What the publisher says

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

Starlog

Vet a package before your AI coding agent uses it — authoritative facts (CVEs, license, maintenance), free, local, no account.

Vet a package in one command — nothing to install, no API key, no account:

npx starloghq facts ua-parser-js

Then wire it into your coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Codex):

npx starloghq init

Source-available under BUSL-1.1 — free to use, modify, and self-host; converts to Apache-2.0 in 2030. Details ↓

Why

AI coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot) pick libraries from training recall — a snapshot of scraped code, frozen at a cutoff date and ranked by how often an option appeared, not by what fits your task or what's safe now. That recall can't know about a CVE disclosed last week, and it has never seen your company's internal libraries. The agent recommends anyway, with the same confidence either way.

The failure modes are measurable: research finds ~49% of AI-suggested dependencies carry known vulnerabilities and ~34% are hallucinated outright — the package doesn't exist. And for whole categories — most dangerously auth — agents default to hand-rolling custom code instead of reaching for a vetted library.

You can't fix recall by prompting harder. Starlog puts authoritative, dated facts in front of your agent at decision time. Its hero surface is vetting by name — starlog facts returns known CVEs/incidents, SPDX license + risk, and maintenance status (or an honest "no facts on file") — so the install/avoid/pick call rides on facts, not recall. It runs entirely on your machine as an MCP server and a package-install hook, no API key, no sign-up. A companion starlog_search finds candidate packages for a capability; facts vet the pick.

Does it actually change what the agent decides? Yes — measured before/after, on the venue that matters (private libraries and post-cutoff advisories). → the validated result.
