MCP Server Endoflife

🚀 Software End-of-Life (EOL) MCP Server 📅

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that enables AI assistants like Claude to check the end-of-life (EOL) dates and support status of software via the endoflife.date API. This helps AI models access the latest software lifecycle information.

🚀 Quick Start

✨ Features

• Functionality: Provides EOL information for various software (e.g., Python, Node.js, Ubuntu, etc.), including end-of-support dates and security update status.
• Use Cases: Assists developers in selecting appropriate software versions, avoiding security risks and compatibility issues caused by outdated software.

Configuration Guide

1. Configure Claude Desktop

Edit the configuration file to add the EOL MCP server:

code ~/Library/Application\ 支持/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS)

or

code %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

Add the following configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "eol": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["/path/to/eol-mcp-server/build/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

2. Restart Claude Desktop

Ensure the changes take effect:

1. Completely exit Claude Desktop (not just close the window).
2. Start Claude Desktop again.
3. Check if it is connected to the EOL server.
