NOTE

The past two versions, 0.5.3 and 0.5.4 have a number of important fixes for Mac and WIndows. If you try to install it through the NPM package, you will typically only get the 0.4.0 version. Even if you try to force it to install 0.5.4, it will give you this:

% npm install -f hyperdb-mcp@0.5.4
npm warn using --force Recommended protections disabled.
npm error code ETARGET
npm error notarget No matching version found for hyperdb-mcp@0.5.4 with a date before 6/3/2026, 9:47:07 AM.
npm error notarget In most cases you or one of your dependencies are requesting a package version that doesn't exist.
npm error A complete log of this run can be found in: /Users/XXXXX/.npm/_logs/2026-06-10T16_47_07_131Z-debug-0.log

This is a standard setting for NPM package to only install versions older than 7 days. To override that run:

 % npm install hyperdb-mcp@0.5.4 --min-release-age=0
changed 2 packages, and audited 3 packages in 2s

Some versions of the Windows MCP hang when being accessed by an AI client. Using the 0.5.4 version fixes that. Also for Mac Apple Silicon, all versions through 0.5.3 installs an Intel version of the Hyper engine which has a slow initial startup and is a bit slower overall. In >= 0.5.4, the Apple Silicon Hyper engine is installed.
