Questions

What is the What's Allowed MCP server?

Merged agent permission rules: which settings file wins, and which rules your client ignores. It is made by @stcmain and listed in the official MCP Registry as io.github.stcmain/whats-allowed-mcp. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is the open standard that lets AI apps like Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor use outside tools.

How do I add What's Allowed to Claude?

In Claude Code, run: claude mcp add whats-allowed-mcp -- npx -y whats-allowed-mcp@0.1.1

How do I add What's Allowed to ChatGPT?

ChatGPT only connects to remote MCP servers, and What's Allowed runs on your own computer. Use it from Claude, Cursor or another app that runs local servers.

How do I add What's Allowed to Cursor?

Open Cursor settings, go to MCP, choose "Add new MCP server" (or edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json) and add: { "mcpServers": { "whats-allowed-mcp": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "whats-allowed-mcp@0.1.1" ] } } }

Does What's Allowed work right now?

It runs on your own computer, so it works once you install it. There is no remote server for us to check.
