Connects Claude directly to the npm registry with three straightforward tools: search_packages for keyword lookups that return names, descriptions, and download counts; get_package for detailed metadata on a specific package including dependencies, size, and weekly downloads; and compare_packages to put up to 10 packages side by side with stats and quality scores. No API keys or auth required. Useful when you need current package versions and download trends instead of Claude's training data, or when evaluating alternatives during dependency decisions. Runs via npx or Docker with no setup overhead.
