No install snippet on purpose. A working MCP config is a command, its arguments and an environment block — the last two are where API keys live, so this catalogue never stores them and cannot publish them. Follow the link above for the authors' own instructions.
Killcord is free, self-hosted, and open source under the MIT license. Killcord differs from cost-monitoring dashboards or Slack alerts because it directly deactivates the key rather than just notifying. Killcord Pro, available for a one-time payment of $15, adds multi-workspace fleets, OpenAI project-key kill support, and generated systemd/launchd units.
