AgentCanary

Overview

AgentCanary is a Model Context Protocol server that serves as a retired compatibility stub. While the MCP server is no longer actively developed, daily briefs continue to be published on X and Telegram for those interested in updates.

The server runs locally on your machine via the npm package agentcanary-mcp, which communicates over stdio. No authentication is required to get started. The latest release is v1.4.8, and the source code is available at MrCerq/agentcanary-mcp on GitHub.

AgentCanary appears in the AI & Agents category on mcp.site and works with MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and others. If you maintain AgentCanary for MrCerq, claim this listing to verify ownership and keep the information up to date.
