This is a well-structured MCP server for accessing roadmap.sh educational content with proper authentication handling, input validation, and safe HTTP operations. The code demonstrates good security practices with Zod schema validation, environment-based configuration, and read-only operations. Minor code quality improvements around error handling and caching robustness would further strengthen it, but no critical vulnerabilities were identified. Supply chain analysis found 2 known vulnerabilities in dependencies (0 critical, 2 high severity). Package verification found 1 issue.

mcp-roadmapsh

MCP server for roadmap.sh — developer roadmaps, best practices, interview questions, project ideas, videos, and local progress tracking. Built on the official @modelcontextprotocol/sdk (TypeScript / stdio).

All data comes from official, public sources — no scraping, no mock data:

https://roadmap.sh/{slug}.json — rendered roadmap graphs
raw.githubusercontent.com/nilbuild/developer-roadmap — topic markdown
GitHub contents API — dynamic slug listings

Prerequisite

Node.js 20 or newer (node --version to check). That is the only requirement — npx (bundled with Node) handles the rest, no manual clone or build needed.

Quick start

Claude Code (one command)

# Once published to npm:
claude mcp add roadmapsh -- npx -y mcp-roadmapsh

# Works today, straight from GitHub (npx builds it for you):
claude mcp add roadmapsh -- npx -y github:aissablk1/mcp-roadmapsh

Any MCP client (JSON config)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "roadmapsh": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "mcp-roadmapsh"] }
  }
}

Replace mcp-roadmapsh with github:aissablk1/mcp-roadmapsh to run the latest GitHub version before the npm release.
