✓ freshdeps checked mysql-python live against PyPI, GitHub & OSV on Jun 14, 2026 — but it goes stale again.
Install the MCP so your AI agent checks freshness before it recommends a dependency:
claude mcp add freshdeps -- npx -y github:SolvoHQ/freshdeps-mcp
One line. Works in Claude Code / Cursor / any MCP client (or paste the JSON config). Zero npm account needed.

Suggested alternative
mysqlclient
MySQL-python is dead (Python 2 only, last release 2014); mysqlclient is the maintained fork.
Migration
pip install mysqlclient; import MySQLdb still works (mysqlclient keeps the MySQLdb module name)
Embed this freshdeps badge in your README. It reads the same hand-verified migration corpus this page does — so it tells anyone who lands on your repo whether mysql-python is a dead end before they install it.
