Overview

This tool acts as a lightweight bridge for fetching and deploying the @palantir/mcp package directly from Palantir Foundry environments. It simplifies the setup process by automating registry configuration and package retrieval for users working within secure Foundry instances. It performs preflight validation on your Node.js environment, network connectivity, and user tokens. Once validated, it downloads the necessary packages to execute commands against your specified Foundry API URL.

Our verdict

With a security score of 40/100, this server is classified as high risk. The primary security concern is that it is a community-maintained project rather than an official release from the vendor, and its authentication and read-only behaviors have not yet undergone an editorial or technical review. Users should exercise caution when handling tokens and sensitive data, as this implementation has not been vetted for production security standards.

  • Requires only two direct dependencies for lower supply-chain risk
  • Includes documented support for automated installation and execution
  • Open-source MIT licensed codebase available for community inspection
  • Security score of 40/100 indicates significant high-risk factors
  • Lack of official vendor maintenance or security oversight
  • Authentication and read-only mechanisms remain unverified

Setup

Claude Desktop
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "palantir-mcp": {
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "palantir-mcp"
      ],
      "command": "npx"
    }
  }
}

Paste into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows), then restart Claude Desktop. Some servers require API keys or tokens as environment variables — check the project's README and add an "env" object if needed.

  • No read-only mode — running this grants full read/write access.
  • No built-in authentication — anyone with access to this config can invoke every tool it exposes.
