Our reading of K6, from the data

K6 is a documentation MCP server from mrfentmen, listed in the official MCP Registry.

We haven't measured its tool list yet, so its token cost is unknown.

Maintenance is active: the last public signal was 2 days ago (2026-10-17). For comparison, 71% of documentation servers are active or maintained.

It runs locally on your machine over stdio.
