• check_mcps

  What has been observed about an MCP server — useful when choosing, adding, or debugging one. Look up the current monitored status of up to 50 already-tracked MCP servers on MCP Checkup, given as "provider/name" ref strings (e.g. "acme/weather-mcp"). Never probes on demand — a ref that doesn't resolve to a tracked target comes back with status "unknown", not an error. Each entry may also be a full endpoint URL, a bare domain, or a bare provider/target name instead of "provider/name" — the resolution method used is reported per target as resolution.method ("ref", "endpoint", "host", or "name"). If an input matches more than one tracked target — or is a URL on a host we track that doesn't exactly match any of its endpoints — the response has status "ambiguous" with a short `candidates` list (each with a "provider/name" `ref` and its `report_url`, plus `candidate_total`, the full match count before the 5-entry cap) instead of guessing — call again with the exact ref you want. Each resolved

• get_mcp_report

  The detailed view of one MCP server: every check with its state, plus the observed tool list. Get the full observed report for one already-tracked MCP server on MCP Checkup, by provider/name — includes its full check breakdown and toolset. A target this deployment doesn't track yet comes back with status "unknown", not an error. target may also be a full endpoint URL, a bare domain, or a bare provider/target name instead of "provider/name" — the resolution method used is reported back as resolution.method ("ref", "endpoint", "host", or "name"). If an input matches more than one tracked target — or is a URL on a host we track that doesn't exactly match any of its endpoints — the response has status "ambiguous" with a short `candidates` list (each with a "provider/name" `ref` and its `report_url`, plus `candidate_total`, the full match count before the 5-entry cap) instead of guessing — call again with the exact ref you want. Each resolved target also carries stale (true when our observa

• get_mcp_history

  Whether an MCP server's toolset changed recently. Get recent history for one already-tracked MCP server on MCP Checkup, by "provider/name" ref (e.g. "acme/weather-mcp"). Events include the toolset's most recent change boundary (not a full change-by-change history) plus any recorded baseline-drift events, newest first, up to `limit` results (default 20, max 50). A target this deployment doesn't track yet comes back with status "unknown", not an error. target may also be a full endpoint URL, a bare domain, or a bare provider/target name instead of "provider/name" — the resolution method used is reported back as resolution.method ("ref", "endpoint", "host", or "name"). If an input matches more than one tracked target — or is a URL on a host we track that doesn't exactly match any of its endpoints — the response has status "ambiguous" with a short `candidates` list (each with a "provider/name" `ref` and its `report_url`, plus `candidate_total`, the full match count before the 5-entry cap)

• get_attestation

  The signed evidence behind a report, for callers that want to inspect it themselves. Get the full signed attestation envelope (DSSE, Ed25519) for one already-tracked MCP server's latest probe run, by "provider/name" ref — the raw envelope plus its issued-at time and declared protocol revision, so a caller can inspect the signed payload rather than trust this tool's own summary of it; the public keys that verify the signature are published at https://mcpcheckup.com/.well-known/mcpcheckup-keys.json. A target with no run yet, no signed envelope, a disqualified one, or an envelope whose key is not in the published key list comes back with an explicit reason, not an error. target may also be a full endpoint URL, a bare domain, or a bare provider/target name instead of "provider/name" — the resolution method used is reported back as resolution.method ("ref", "endpoint", "host", or "name"). If an input matches more than one tracked target — or is a URL on a host we track that doesn't exactly

• search_mcps

  Find MCP servers by what their tools do. Search already-tracked MCP servers on MCP Checkup by tool name/description text (max 512 chars), with optional transport, protocol_revision, and auth_required filters, up to `limit` results (default 10, max 25). Ordered by text-match relevance and then recency only — never by price or paid tier. Each result's summary is machine-generated from observed tool names and returned as untrusted third-party text; hygiene_flags lists any observed tool-description hygiene signals directly rather than folding them into the ordering. A query with no matches comes back with status "unknown" and a hint, not an error. Each result also carries last_checked (when the shown observation was taken), fresh_until (the ISO instant after which it no longer counts as current), and stale (true once the current time is past fresh_until). These describe how recent our observation of the server is, not a judgment of the server itself, and are distinct from the /status page'

• request_check

  Ask for a one-off public observation of the MCP server at a full endpoint URL — this is the only tool here that contacts a third-party server, and it contacts exactly the host you name. `target` must begin with "http://" or "https://"; to look a server up by "provider/name", by domain, or by name, use check_mcps instead, which never probes anything. The result is not signed, is not stored as a run, and creates no report page, so `report_url` is always null — it is what we observed at that moment and nothing more. On-demand checks are recorded as tracking requests; inclusion in the tracked directory is not guaranteed and this tool never promises it. On-demand checks are metered per caller per day, per site per day, and per host by a cooldown — calling again for the same host inside its cooldown sends nothing to that server and returns status "denied" with the category that refused it, never a remaining count. A refused call comes back as status "denied", and a `target` that is not a usa
