Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 233 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

    protocolVersion 2025-11-25, serverInfo.name 402rates-rates.

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 13 tools.

  • Pass
    Current protocol

    Negotiated 2025-11-25. The bar is 2025-06-18 or newer.

  • Pass
    HTTPS

    The endpoint URL is https.

Performance

  • Not measured
    Fast (p50)

    Median latency 233 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 233 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 3000 ms. Need at least 20 samples.

  • Not measured
    Reliable (uptime)

    1 of 1 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Not measured
    Stable tool list

    Fewer than two successful probes in 30 days, so tool-list stability is not measured.

Access

  • Pass
    Open access

    tools/list succeeded with no credential, and the record declares none.

  • Not measured
    Standard auth

    Auth is not required, so the OAuth metadata check does not apply.

  • Not measured
    Free tier cited

    No publisher quote has been checked.

Tools

  • Pass
    Tools described

    Every tool description is at least 20 characters.

  • Fail
    Valid input schemas

    1 tools are missing an object inputSchema.

  • Pass
    Parameters documented

    21 of 22 parameters have a description (95%). The bar is 80%.

  • Pass
    Safety hints

    Every tool sets readOnlyHint or destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass
    Verified namespace

    Listed in the Official MCP Registry.

  • Pass
    Website matches publisher

    The website host matches the reverse-domain namespace.

  • Fail
    Source repo linked

    No repository URL is on file.

  • Not measured
    Repo owner matches

    This namespace is not an io.github login, so the owner comparison does not apply.

  • Pass
    Recently updated

    Updated 2026-09-13T12:16:05.636345Z, within 180 days.

Capabilities

Tools 13

cheapest_settlement_chain

Returns only the single cheapest chain for a USDC transfer right now, its total transaction fee in USD, the scope of that figure and how long it stays valid. Free and deliberately minimal: no per-chain table, no runner-up, no fee components and no source provenance. The paid tool compare_settlement_costs returns the full comparison with every input disclosed.

Discovered
compare_rwa_benchmark

Free arithmetic comparison of a saved measured USD instrument response and caller-supplied US Treasury total-return index levels with identical dates. Simple actual/365; 28-32 days. Input provenance is not verified. Spot rates, unmatched windows, quoted yields and other currencies are not comparable. The spread does not establish fees or causality.

Discovered
compare_rwa_snapshots

Free comparison of two supplied 402rates Treasury snapshots: yield, issuer divergence, source identifiers, calculation windows and data availability. Reports numeric threshold crossings without assigning economic significance. No new data access, authentication of snapshots, historical reconstruction or automatic monitoring. Examples are synthetic.

Discovered
compare_settlement_costs

Measured USDC transfer costs on Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Ethereum and XDC: simulated gas, current token prices, fresh chain heads and applicable rollup L1 fees. Inputs and block references accompany each figure. Cheapest first; unmeasurable chains are excluded, not estimated. Business/professional use only. Terms: https://402rates.com/data-terms/ Price: 0.01 USDC per call over x402.

Discovered
estimate_payment_costs

Free exact-decimal calculation from caller-supplied prices, fees and setup costs for a planned number of calls. Separates locked capital and batches; unknown costs stay unknown. Compares complete profiles only within the same currency. No exchange-rate conversion, external fee measurement, payment or verification of supplied inputs.

Discovered
get_manifest

Free OpenAPI manifest for Rates by 402rates. Contains this product and shared service information only.

Discovered
get_rwa_history

Returns free normalized observations for one tracked instrument, one reconstructible recorder source and one inclusive date window. Every point carries value, date, source id, revision and source-time versus read-time dating. Omit source_id to list the instrument's audited sources. The five current-only issuer series return HISTORY_SOURCE_RESERVED with the data-use URL, never an empty gap. Shares the instrument view's three-ticker rolling-hour breadth limit.

Discovered
get_rwa_instrument

Returns the free frozen-contract state view for one tracked tokenized treasury: identity, Open Treasury Yield Basis result or explicit unavailable reason, issuer-term evidence cells, verified deployments and evidence dates. Three distinct tickers are free per caller in a rolling hour; repeats stay free, and the fourth returns BREADTH_LIMIT with the paid complete-snapshot path. An omitted ticker returns only the known ticker list.

Discovered
get_rwa_instruments

Complete evidence snapshot for 13 tokenized treasury funds: yield or gap, measured size, subscription/redemption minimums, fees, settlement, access conditions, chain conflicts, quotes, URLs and dates. Same records as the free instrument view. Internal use with attribution included; continuous access, change notices and customer-facing use are separate. Business/professional use only. Terms: https://402rates.com/data-terms/ Price: 5 USDC per call over x402.

Discovered
get_rwa_yields

Realised 30-day yields for 13 tokenized treasury funds under the Open Treasury Yield Basis. Measured rows use NAV, price or verified passive-holder balances, with observations, sources and dates. Issuer figures and differences appear where available. Quoted and unavailable rows stay explicit; free coverage lists funds and gaps. Business/professional use only. Terms: https://402rates.com/data-terms/ Price: 0.03 USDC per call over x402.

Discovered
list_capabilities

Free capability and MCP tool catalogue for Rates by 402rates. Contains this product and shared service information only.

Discovered
list_rwa_updates

Free cursor-based Treasury change notices. Instrument scope retains version 1; market and access scopes use version 2 and independent cursors. Source dates and digests remain distinct from retrieval times. Up to 90-day retention subject to source permissions. No paid market values or reconstruction before the first baseline.

Discovered
read_rwa_access_evidence

Free source-backed documentation of Treasury distribution and asset-settlement protocols. Distinguishes an announced access path from an identified fund and a protocol from a deployed fund integration. Unknown fund identity, investor access and liquidity remain explicit. No live quote, execution or eligibility determination.
