Which clients are supported?

Zephex provides setup guidance for Cursor, Claude Code, VS Code, Windsurf, JetBrains, and any other MCP-compatible client. If it speaks MCP, it works.

What is the best MCP server for Cursor?

For shipping in your own codebase, Zephex bundles ten dev tools through one hosted endpoint. Setup: npx zephex setup or .cursor/mcp.json. See /mcp-server-for-cursor and /docs/editors/cursor.

Can I use Zephex without an AI agent?

Yes. npx zephex in your terminal provides get-context, find-code, check-package, and more — same backend, human-readable output. Demo at /cli.

How is Zephex different from Smithery or MCP marketplaces?

Smithery helps discover individual MCP servers. Zephex is one curated server with ten engineering tools bundled — no marketplace assembly.

Why this score?

Zephex Hosted MCP — 98.2% on this chart

Hosted MCP with check_package, project_memory, read_code, and explain_architecture — built for your repo and installed versions, not cached docs alone.

Zephex runs check_package against live npm and OSV data on your lockfile, so typosquats and risky installs get caught before merge.

How we measuredPass rate on 50 tasks where agents must reject malicious or typosquatted packages.

FAQ

Questions beforeyou connect

Quick answers for evaluation, setup, and security review.

Most users connect in a few minutes — create a key, paste one config snippet into your editor, and call the MCP endpoint. No long onboarding, no infrastructure to provision.

Zephex provides setup guidance for Cursor, Claude Code, VS Code, Windsurf, and JetBrains, and any other MCP-compatible client. If it speaks MCP, it works.

No. Zephex does not use your prompts, tool inputs, tool outputs, or code to train AI models. Your data is routed and enforced at the boundary — nothing is retained for model training.

A local MCP server is tied to one machine and one editor. You re-install it for every new project, every team member, and every environment. Zephex is hosted — one endpoint that works across all your editors, machines, and teammates from the moment you paste the config.

Context7 injects fresh third-party library docs into prompts. Zephex reads your actual repo and installed packages — code search, project context, and package audits. Many teams use both: docs MCP for framework APIs, Zephex for shipping in your codebase.

No. Memory MCPs like Mem0 remember facts across sessions. Zephex is for live engineering: your file tree, dependencies, architecture, and supply-chain checks while you code — not contact saving or long-term chat recall.

Yes. The check_package tool queries live registry data for typosquats, maintainer signals, and risk flags — the same workflow that flagged a convincing fake Stripe SDK. Use task=upgrade for version-to-version breaking changes and CVE detail.
