About Inspector
Inspector is an MCP server published by MCPJam in the Developer Tools category: test & Debug MCP servers, ChatGPT apps, and MCP Apps (ext-apps). It has been installed 0 times through Conduid.
The repository has 1.8K stars and 196 forks, with the last commit 6 months ago. Six months or more without a commit doesn't mean the server is broken, but check the open issues (0) before depending on it in production.
Install
npx inspectorThis server has no ConduID identity, so agent calls to it are not receipted. Pin the version you install and review the source before granting it credentials.

README
MCPJam is the development platform for MCP servers, MCP apps, and ChatGPT apps.
- Debug: Inspect every JSON-RPC message and OAuth exchange across host configurations with full traces.
- Chat: Talk to any LLM against your server with full trace visibility into tool calls and context across agent, host app, your server.
- Inspect: Explore your server’s tools, resources, and prompts in one place.
- Evaluate: Run evals across multiple LLMs and track accuracy over time so you catch regressions early.
- CLI: Probe servers, run doctor checks, exercise OAuth flows, and list tools/resources/prompts straight from your terminal.
- SDK: Programmatically drive inspections, snapshot server capabilities, and assert on tool/resource shapes from your own tests.
- CI/CD: Wire the CLI and SDK into GitHub Actions (or any pipeline) to run e2e tests, evals, OAuth checks, and spec conformance on every PR.
No more ngrok or ChatGPT/Claude subscription needed. MCPJam is the fastest way to iterate on any MCP project.
🚀 Quick Start
Open the hosted web app. No install needed.
Or run MCPJam locally for HTTP/S and local STDIO servers:
npx @mcpjam/inspector@latest

Installation Guides
MCPJam Inspector runs three ways: a hosted web app, a desktop app for Mac and Windows, or via your terminal. The web app is HTTPS-only and has no install. Terminal and Desktop support HTTP/S and local STDIO servers.
Requirements
Node.js 20+ is only required for the terminal install (npx). The hosted web app and desktop apps have no local runtime requirements.
Hosted Web App
Open app.mcpjam.com in your browser. No install required. Always on the latest version, and you can share MCP server links with teammates the same way you'd share a Google Doc.
- HTTPS MCP server URLs only (for HTTP or local STDIO servers, use Desktop or Terminal).
- No STDIO, tunneling, skills, or tasks. Those require the local inspector.
See Hosted App docs for details.
Desktop App
Download the installer for your OS. Supports HTTP/S and local STDIO servers. No Node.js required.
Terminal
Run the inspector via npx (supports HTTP/S and local STDIO):
npx @mcpjam/inspector@latest
After it starts, open the printed localhost URL in your browser.
Docker
Run MCPJam Inspector using Docker, bound to localhost for security:
docker run -p 127.0.0.1:6274:6274 mcpjam/mcp-inspector
The app is available at http://127.0.0.1:6274. Always use -p 127.0.0.1:6274:6274 (not -p 6274:6274) to keep the inspector local-only. On macOS/Windows, connect to host MCP servers via http://host.docker.internal:PORT instead of 127.0.0.1.

App Builder
Debug your server against a model using tool calls or in-panel chat, with Chat, Trace, and Raw views. Supports OpenAI Apps SDK and MCP app UIs, text tools, and a Chrome DevTools-style widget emulator to iterate on widgets locally.
- Manually invoke a tool to instantly view the widget, or chat with your server using an LLM.
- View all JSON-RPC messages and
window.openaimessages in the logs. - Change emulator device to Desktop, Tablet, or Mobile views.
- Test your app's locale change, CSP permissions, light / dark mode, hover & touch, and safe area insets.
Trace view: every tool call, agent step, and JSON-RPC message.
Chat
Multi-server chat on frontier models for free, or bring your own API key. Chat, Trace, and Raw views; compare up to 3 models side-by-side. View your server's token usage.
OAuth Debugger
Guided MCP OAuth conformance checks with step-by-step explanations. Test against every version of the OAuth spec (03-26, 06-18, and 11-25). Support for client pre-registration, Dynamic Client Registration (DCR), and Client ID Metadata Documents (CIMD).
MCP Server Debugging
MCPJam contains all of the tooling to test your MCP server. Manually run tools, resources, resource templates, prompts, and elicitation flows, with full JSON-RPC observability. MCPJam has all features from the original inspector and more.
Skills
Use Skills in Chat and App Builder to extend models with local, reusable behaviors. Local filesystem only. Your data never leaves your machine. Read more
Workspaces
Group your servers into shared workspaces with real-time team sync, so everyone on your team is testing against the same configuration. Read more
Evals
Define test cases with expected tool calls and run them across multiple LLMs. Track accuracy metrics over time to catch regressions early and improve your server with every iteration. Read more
CLI
Run MCPJam from the terminal for fast local dev loops and CI integration. Probe servers, run OAuth checks, inspect tools and resources, and execute evals without leaving your shell. Read more
SDK
Programmatic access to MCPJam for custom tooling, scripting, and integrations. Build your own workflows on top of MCPJam's inspection and evaluation primitives. Read more
CI/CD
Wire MCPJam into GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or your CI system of choice to run conformance, E2E tests, and evals on every PR. Catch MCP server regressions before they ship. Read more
