Install PyPI Release Tracker — new Python packages & dependency updates (pypiwatch) in Continue

What you need first

  • Continue, installed.
  • Nothing else: the server runs on its publisher's machines and Continue connects to it.

Steps

  1. Open ~/.continue/config.yaml. On Windows it is %USERPROFILE%\.continue\config.yaml.
  2. Add this entry. If the file already has mcpServers, add only the item from - name on.
mcpServers:
  - name: "data-pypi-release-package-release-python-dependency"
    type: streamable-http
    url: "https://a2awire.com/mcp/data/pypiwatch-new-pypi-package-releases-python-dependency-updates-dffb95/http"
  1. Save the file and restart Continue.

Check it worked

Ask Continue: List the tools of data-pypi-release-package-release-python-dependency.

If it does not start

401 Unauthorized
The endpoint wants a sign-in or a key. Sign in when Continue asks.
Nothing changes after a restart
The file is not valid YAML any more. Check that the entry is indented like the lines around it.
