Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 483 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

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

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 8 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 808 ms over 2 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 1100 ms over 2 samples in 7 days. The bar is 3000 ms. Need at least 20 samples.

  • Not measured
    Reliable (uptime)

    2 of 2 attempts returned a tool list in 30 days (100%). The bar is 99%. Need at least 30 samples.

  • Pass
    Stable tool list

    No tool was removed and no required parameter was added in the last 30 days.

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

    12 of 12 parameters have a description (100%). The bar is 80%.

  • Fail
    Safety hints

    8 tools set neither readOnlyHint nor destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass
    Verified namespace

    Listed in the Official MCP Registry.

  • Not measured
    Website matches publisher

    This namespace is not a reverse domain, so the website comparison does not apply.

  • Pass

Capabilities

Tools 8

get_api_status

Probe a monitored API endpoint at call time and return up/degraded/down with the response time. This is the tool to reach for when a user asks "is X down?" — it makes a real request rather than reading the hourly cache.

Discovered
get_incident_history

Real incidents a vendor published on its own status page, newest first, with start/end times, duration, severity, affected components and a link to the vendor’s incident page. Use this for "has X been flaky lately?" — it is the vendor’s own record, not our probes. Services without a public Statuspage endpoint return covered:false rather than an empty list.

Discovered
get_uptime_history

Uptime percentages, response-time stats and recorded data points for one API over a time range. History is retained for 30 days; an API added recently will have few or no data points, which reads as null percentages rather than 100%.

Discovered
list_apis

List the APIs and developer platforms this service monitors, optionally filtered by category. Statuses come from the most recently published monitor snapshot, not a live probe, and can be up to a day old — check monitorCheckedAt, and call get_api_status when the caller needs the status right now.

Discovered
list_categories

Category slugs and how many monitored APIs sit in each. Use the slugs with list_apis.

Discovered
list_down_apis

Everything the most recent monitor run found down or degraded, across all categories. Returns an empty list when the monitor snapshot is missing or stale — an empty list is therefore not proof that everything is healthy; check monitorLastRun.

Discovered
rank_reliability

Given several service slugs, return a scorecard ranked worst-first: incident count, total downtime minutes, mean time to resolve, and the longest incident over a window. Use this to answer "which vendor in my stack is least reliable?" — it compares services across vendors, which a vendor’s own monitoring tool cannot. Services with no archive are listed separately as uncovered instead of being ranked as flawless.

Discovered
search_apis

Find monitored APIs by name, slug, category or description. Use this to resolve a product name the user mentioned into the slug the other tools take.
