About pituitary

pituitary is an MCP server published by the GitHub account dusk-network. Catch spec drift before it catches you. Detect overlap, stale docs, and code drift.

It runs on your own machine: your AI client starts it from the MCP bundle package pituitary-darwin-arm64.mcpb, with no version pinned.

It asks for no keys or passwords.

Version 1.0.0-beta.12 was published on 8 May 2026, and the source code is public, so you can read it before installing.

Written from the registry entry. 7 automated checks on registry metadata: 3 pass, 1 warn, 0 fail, 3 info. How we check.
