npm Package Intelligence \u2014 tool reference

Inspect public npm packages and compare dependencies without installing code.

Server URL: https://toolcargo.com/mcp/npm-packages · Scope: connector:npm-packages.

Included with Site Audit. Activate it free in your dashboard, then connect this server with ToolCargo OAuth or a scoped API key. No external API key or paid provider account is needed. Each successful tool call uses one call from your shared Free/Pro quota.

package_details

Inspect one package: latest version, license, repository, runtime requirements, bounded dependency lists, maintainer names, distribution metadata and optional last-week downloads.

input
{ "name": "@types/node" }

compare_packages

Compare two to five distinct packages. Each comparison counts as one shared-plan call, even though it reads multiple public package records.

input
{ "names": ["zod", "valibot"] }

Limits and sources

Public npm packages only. Latest-version metadata does not provide publish dates. Last-week statistics cover the last seven available days and can lag or be unavailable. Download counts are not a quality or security score. Maintainer email addresses, scripts and README content are excluded. No tarball is downloaded or executed.
