Frequently Asked Questions
What are MCP tools and how do I use them?▼
MCP (Model Context Protocol) lets AI coding assistants like Claude Code, Cursor, and Windsurf connect directly to PatternStack. Once configured, your AI can query package recommendations, check for CVEs, and analyze your stack — all without leaving your IDE.
What's included in MCP request limits?▼
Each MCP tool call counts as one request. This includes package lookups, stack recommendations, CVE checks, and framework detection. Free tier gets 500 requests/day, which is plenty for typical development. Higher tiers unlock more for power users.
What is AGI safety metadata?▼
Our MCP responses include safety signals designed for AI agents making autonomous decisions. This includes CVE severity flags, deprecation warnings, and confidence scores — so AI assistants can make safer package choices on your behalf.
Do I need to connect GitHub?▼
GitHub connection is required for project tracking and automatic syncing. However, you can use MCP tools standalone to look up any package — just ask your IDE about a package and PatternStack will respond. For the best experience, connect GitHub so PatternStack can analyze your actual dependencies.
Which ecosystems are supported?▼
JavaScript/TypeScript (npm) and Python (PyPI) have full support with rich recommendation data. Ruby, Rust, Go, PHP, Elixir, Java, .NET, Dart, and Swift are in preview — recommendations improve as more projects use PatternStack.
What's included in the Free plan?▼
The Free plan includes 3 projects with manual scans (2h cooldown), your top 5 recommendations, critical CVE alerts, and 500 MCP requests/day. Upgrade to Pro ($19/mo) to see ALL recommendations and get faster sync.
Can I upgrade or downgrade anytime?▼
Yes. You can adjust your plan at any time from your billing portal. Changes are prorated, and your data is always preserved.
Do you offer refunds?▼
Yes, we offer a 30-day money-back guarantee on all paid plans. Contact support@patternstack.ai within 30 days of your purchase for a full refund.
