About sammcj/mcp-package-version

An MCP server that supplies LLMs with the latest stable package versions during coding. It is written in Go and helps prevent outdated or insecure dependency suggestions.

Best for

Developers using LLM-based coding assistants who need reliable, current package version information inline.

Use cases

  • Integrate with AI coding assistants to fetch current package versions
  • Verify recommended package versions are up-to-date during development
  • Automate dependency version lookup in LLM-driven code generation pipelines

Notes

121 stars on GitHub. Last updated 2026-01-28. Licensed MIT.

Pros

  • Lightweight and focused single-purpose tool
  • Reduces the risk of LLMs suggesting old or deprecated packages
  • Straightforward MCP protocol integration with compatible LLM hosts

Cons

  • Requires an MCP-compatible LLM environment to function
  • May not cover all package registries or custom package sources
  • Limited to version lookups; does not handle broader dependency management
