Package Version MCP Server

An MCP server that provides tools for checking latest stable package versions from multiple package registries:

- npm (Node.js/JavaScript)
- PyPI (Python)
- Maven Central (Java)
- Go Proxy (Go)
- Swift Packages (Swift)
- AWS Bedrock (AI Models)
- Docker Hub (Container Images)
- GitHub Container Registry (Container Images)
- GitHub Actions

This server helps LLMs ensure they're recommending up-to-date package versions when writing code.

IMPORTANT: I'm slowly moving across this tool to a component of my mcp-devtools server
