What is dep-scout?

dep-scout is an MCP server that searches multiple package registries (crates.io, npm, PyPI, Go, Maven, NuGet) for mature packages before AI agents reinvent the wheel. It helps developers and AI agents discover existing, battle-tested libraries instead of building from scratch.

How to use dep-scout?

Install by building from source with cargo build --release or download a pre-built .mcpb from the GitHub Releases. The server exposes three tools: find_packages (ranked search with reuse score), inspect_package (license, OSV vulnerabilities, deprecation status), and find_mcp_servers (official MCP registry search).
