maidr

maidr runs locally from a Python package published to PyPI: maidr-mcp version 0.1.0. It speaks MCP over stdio, so the client starts it as a program and talks to it through standard input and output. It needs Python; clients usually start it with uvx (from uv) or after pip install — the usual command is uvx maidr-mcp.

maidr runs locally from a container image in an OCI registry such as Docker Hub or GitHub Container Registry: ghcr.io/xability/maidr-mcp:0.1.0. The package starts a local server that speaks MCP over Streamable HTTP; the client then connects to it by URL (the entry names docker as the runtime).

In the mcpServers JSON format that many desktop and editor MCP clients read, the entry looks like this (placeholders in angle brackets):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "maidr-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "maidr-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}
