A local tool for looking up Python packages on PyPI, the main public catalogue for Python software. It can show package details, dependencies, and compatibility information.

Use it to inspect package metadata, trace dependencies, check compatibility, and query packages from configured Python package indexes.

It saves you from manually checking package pages and dependency details when evaluating or troubleshooting Python libraries.

Install

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/rsp2k/pypi-query-mcp-server

Made for: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode.

Security

Grade A, and why

pypi-query scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

100% identical to pypi-query — 0 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
