{
  "mcpServers": {
    "devqxi-pubdev-mcp-server": {
      "command": "node",

        "/path/to/pubdev-mcp-server/dist/pubdev-mcp.js"
      ]
    }
  }
}

You can run a dedicated MCP server for pub.dev to let AI assistants search, analyze, and retrieve detailed Dart and Flutter package information. This server provides fast access to package metadata, dependencies, version history, and documentation, enabling advanced tooling and automation.

How to use

Connect your MCP client to the server to perform common tasks: search for packages with filters and sorting, fetch detailed package information, check for updates, view version histories, access documentation, and compare dependencies across versions. Use the client’s MCP commands to invoke the server’s tools and receive structured results that you can display or analyze in your workflow.

Typical workflows you can run include searching for packages by keyword or category, inspecting package metadata and dependencies, checking for the latest versions, retrieving changelogs and README content, and comparing the dependencies of two specific package versions. Your MCP client will send requests to the server and receive structured responses you can render in your tooling.

How to install

npm install -g @devqxi/pubdev-mcp-server

git clone https://github.com/devqxi/pubdev-mcp-server.git
cd pubdev-mcp-server
npm install
npm run build
npm run start

If you prefer to run the server locally from a build, you can start it with the built JavaScript entry point as shown in the local build example.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pubdev": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/pubdev-mcp-server/dist/pubdev-mcp.js"]
    }
  }
}

Additional ways to run from the command line

You can also run the server using a package runner to fetch the latest release without installing globally.
