Runs on your machine from its package; the steps are below.
What it does
- Reads
- Writes
- High impact
At most: only reads or looks up information.
What it costs
FreeOdel charges nothing per call. The publisher may charge for its own service.
Runs locally over stdio
This server isn't hosted — your MCP client launches it from a package registry. Use one of the commands below, or drop the config into your client (e.g. Claude Desktop).
Run
npx -y @rog0x/mcp-dep-tools
MCP client config
{
"mcpServers": {
"dep": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@rog0x/mcp-dep-tools"
]
}
}

MCP server providing dependency and package management tools for AI agents. Analyze licenses, find outdated packages, visualize dependency trees, estimate bundle sizes, and audit security vulnerabilities — all from your AI assistant.
Tools
dep_check_licenses
Analyze licenses of all dependencies in a project. Lists each dependency's license type, flags copyleft (GPL) and unknown licenses, and checks for compatibility issues.
dep_find_outdated
Check which dependencies are outdated. Compares installed or specified versions against the latest on npm, categorizes updates as major/minor/patch, and shows how many days since the latest version was published.
dep_analyze_tree
Build and display the dependency tree. Shows direct dependencies and their transitive sub-dependencies, calculates maximum depth, detects circular dependencies, and counts total transitive packages.
dep_analyze_size
Estimate total bundle size from package.json without installing node_modules. Queries the Bundlephobia API for each production dependency to get minified and gzipped sizes.
dep_security_audit
Check dependencies for known security vulnerabilities. Runs npm audit when a lockfile is present, otherwise queries the npm registry advisory API directly. Reports severity levels, affected version ranges, and fix recommendations.
Setup
npm install
npm run build
Usage with Claude Desktop
Add to your Claude Desktop config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"dep-tools": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["path/to/mcp-dep-tools/dist/index.js"]
}
}
}
All tools accept a single parameter
- project_dir (string, required): Absolute path to the project directory containing a
package.json.
