About Cicadas local MCP
Cicadas local MCP is an MCP server published by the GitHub account kevinwowo. Local Cicadas MCP for models, quotes and status. Authenticated API flows not yet verified.
It runs on your own machine: your AI client starts it from the MCP bundle package cicadas-local-mcp-0.1.0.mcpb, with no version pinned.
It asks for one secret: CICADAS_API_KEY. Give it a key with the least access that still works.
Version 0.1.0 was published on 14 October 2026, and the source code is public, so you can read it before installing.
Written from the registry entry. 8 automated checks on the registry entry and the package code: 5 pass, 1 warn, 0 fail, 2 info. How we check.
