Fake Star Audit

Overview

Fake Star Audit is a Model Context Protocol server that detects artificially inflated GitHub stars using transparent, rule-based analysis. It assigns risk levels—LOW, MEDIUM, or HIGH—and provides per-rule evidence to help you identify potentially fraudulent star counts on repositories.

The server runs locally on your machine via the uvx command to install fake-star-audit. It communicates with MCP clients over stdio and requires no credentials or external authentication to operate.

Fake Star Audit is categorized as a Version Control tool on mcp.site and integrates with MCP clients including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and others. The project is open source under the MIT license and maintained at ardev-lab/fake-star-audit on GitHub. If you maintain this server, claim this listing to verify ownership and stay current with updates.
