Our reading of Radix, from the data

Radix is a design MCP server from gianpieropuleo.

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

It looks abandoned: the newest commit, release or package publish we found was 14 months ago (2025-08-14). For comparison, 70% of design servers are active or maintained.

With 8 GitHub stars it ranks #123 of 696 design servers we index.

It runs locally on your machine over stdio.
