Our reading of Fetch, from the data
Fetch is a devops & ci/cd MCP server from zcaceres.
We haven't measured its tool list yet, so its token cost is unknown.
It looks stale: the newest commit, release or package publish we found was 7 months ago (2026-03-09). For comparison, 58% of devops & ci/cd servers are active or maintained.
With 826 GitHub stars it ranks #40 of 848 devops & ci/cd servers we index.
It runs locally on your machine over stdio.
