Unmeasured means there is not enough evidence to decide. How these checks work

Inspect individual checks 22 recorded

Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 297 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

    protocolVersion 2025-11-25, serverInfo.name hydrafetch.

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 18 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 297 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 297 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.

  • Pass
    Valid input schemas

    Every inputSchema is a JSON Schema object.

  • Pass
    Parameters documented

    66 of 66 parameters have a description (100%). 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 2026-10-28T07:03:03.955565Z, within 180 days.

Capabilities

Tools 18

batch

Scrape a list of URLs you already have, such as pages found with map. Waits for the batch to finish and returns the first page of results in the same call, so a short list needs one call; read further pages, or a batch still running, with batch_status. Each URL scraped costs 1 credit.

Discovered
batch_status

Read a batch started with batch: its progress, and one page of results in the order the URLs were sent. When nextOffset is not null, pass it as offset to read the next page of results.

Discovered
brand

A company's brand from its domain: logos for light and dark backgrounds, its colours, name, description and social profiles. Use it to answer what a company is or how it presents itself.

Discovered
company_hiring_changes

What changed in companies' hiring since a date: jobs open now, opened and closed, by department, seniority and location, with the postings themselves. Give company websites like stripe.com. Costs 1 credit per company we have jobs for; companies we do not track are free.

Discovered
crawl

Discover and scrape the pages of a website as one background job, following its links from a starting URL. Returns a crawl id straight away; read progress and results with crawl_status. Each page scraped costs 1 credit, so set limit to what you need.

Discovered
crawl_status

Read a crawl started with crawl: its progress, and one page of the scraped results. When nextOffset is not null, pass it as offset to read the next page of results.

Discovered
extract

Pull specific fields out of one or more pages as JSON, shaped by a JSON schema or described in a prompt. Use it when you need values such as prices, names or dates rather than the whole page text.

Discovered
feedback

Tell Hydrafetch whether an earlier result was accurate. Use it after a scrape, search or other call returns missing, wrong or blocked content, so it gets looked at; a good rating is welcome too. Pass the requestId from that call's usage block, or the URL it read.

Discovered
images

Harvest a page's images with their metadata, without rendering it. Cheaper than a screenshot and returns the source images rather than a picture of the page.

Discovered
job_status

Get the result of a call that answered with a jobId and status "running" because it needed more time. Returns the same result the call would have returned, or the error it failed with. Free.

Discovered
jobs_search

Search open jobs collected from company career sites and hiring platforms, by whole words in the job title, with optional location, remote and posted-within filters. Newest first. Use it to find who is hiring for a role. Costs 1 credit per 10 jobs returned; a search with no jobs is free.

Discovered
logo

A company's logo as a directly embeddable image URL, chosen for the background you name. Use this rather than brand when the mark is all you need: it costs a fifth as much and returns one asset instead of the whole record.

Discovered
map

List the URLs on a website, found through its sitemap and links, without fetching their content. Use it to see which pages exist before choosing which to scrape.

Discovered
news

Find recent news articles about a query, newest first, each with its outlet and publish time. Use it for announcements such as funding rounds, acquisitions, launches and leadership changes. Set scrapeResults to also read each article as markdown, at 1 extra credit per article.

Discovered
scrape

Fetch one web page and return its main content as clean markdown, with optional HTML, links or structured data. Use it to read a page whose URL you already have. For many pages of one site use crawl; for a list of URLs use batch. A long page comes back in parts of maxCharacters (default 50000); when nextOffset is set, call again with that offset to read on. Each call costs 1 credit.

Discovered
screenshot

Render a page in a real browser and capture a PNG, returning its public URL. Use when the question is what the page looks like rather than what it says.

Discovered
search

Search the web and return ranked results: title, url and snippet. Set scrapeResults to also fetch each result as markdown, at 1 extra credit per page.

Discovered
styleguide

A site's design tokens read from computed styles in a real browser: colours by role with contrast ratios, the dark theme colours when the site has one, the type scale, corner radius and button styling, how panels, the header bar and panel titles are drawn, plus ready-made CSS, Tailwind and shadcn/ui stylesheets. Values defined through CSS variables come back resolved to the hex actually painted. To recreate how a site looks rather than only its tokens, take a screenshot of the page too.
