# [kerlenton/mcpsnoop](https://github.com/kerlenton/mcpsnoop) Wireshark for MCP. A transparent proxy between your AI client and MCP server. Watch every call live in your terminal, fail CI on what it finds, export OpenTelemetry spans. 368 stars · 34 forks · Go Quick update: star history is from the full report of Nov 9, 2026. Caution One person wrote most of the recent commits. ## Why - One person wrote 78% of human commits in the last year, so the project depends on them continuing. ([source 1](https://github.com/kerlenton/mcpsnoop/commits), [source 2](https://github.com/kerlenton/mcpsnoop/graphs/contributors)) ### What would change this - A second person takes a substantial share of commits. - Partly checked: maintenance (Commit counts are estimated: the commit sample stops before the window start, so GitHub's totals were scaled by the sampled bot share.; Only 1 recent issues can be checked for a response, too few to measure response time.) ## Maintenance Partial Active **Human commits, 30 days** 15 **Human commits, 90 days** 63 **Human commits, 365 days** 197 **Bot share of commits, 365 days** 2% **Last commit** Oct 17, 2026 (27 days ago) **Last human commit** Oct 17, 2026 (27 days ago) **Authors, 90 days** 5 **Last release** Oct 17, 2026 (27 days ago) **Median PR merge time** under an hour Too few recent issues to measure responsiveness. - Commit counts are estimated: the commit sample stops before the window start, so GitHub's totals were scaled by the sampled bot share. - Only 1 recent issues can be checked for a response, too few to measure response time.
