Dependency Fitness MCP Overview

The dependency-fitness-mcp MCP server evaluates npm dependencies by reconciling npm, deps.dev, OSV.dev, and GitHub data. It exposes single-package and batch audit tools that return structured verdicts, confidence levels, warnings, and migration recommendations when a package is deprecated or superseded. Reach for it before adding or upgrading dependencies, or as a CI and pre-merge gate. It runs over stdio with Node.js 18 or later and requires no API key for normal operation.

Primary Use Cases for Dependency Fitness MCP:
  • Check a package before adding it to an npm project
  • Audit package.json dependencies in a CI job
  • Identify verified replacements for deprecated packages
  • Block hallucinated or malicious package names
