  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 20 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 59 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 59 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

    110 of 134 parameters have a description (82%). 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.

  • Pass
    Source repo linked

    A 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 2026-11-10T23:33:45.442724Z, within 180 days.

Capabilities

Tools 20

sortly_create_alert

Create a stock alert on an item (type Quantity, e.g. threshold_method quantity_less_than with threshold_value 5, or less_than_or_equal_to_min_quantity), or a DateReminder on a datetime custom field (custom_attribute_id + before/after/same_day + threshold_interval). WRITE. Sortly: POST /api/v1/alerts.

Discovered
sortly_create_item

Create a trackable item (type item) or a folder (type folder), optionally inside a folder via parent_id, with quantity, price, tags, custom fields, barcodes and a measured quantity. WRITE. Sortly: POST /api/v1/items.

Discovered
sortly_create_job

Create a job (and its job folder) in not_started status. Name must be unique in the company. Then use sortly_pull_items_into_job to record the stock it uses. WRITE. Sortly: POST /api/v1/jobs.

Discovered
sortly_create_purchase_order

Create a purchase order in draft status (no stock or ordering happens until it is moved on in Sortly). Sortly computes amounts, sub_total and total from the lines; omit purchase_order_number to have one generated. Needs Purchase Orders on the plan (else 402). WRITE. Sortly: POST /api/v1/purchase_orders.

Discovered
sortly_get_item

Fetch a single item or folder by numeric id: quantity, min_quantity, price, tags, sid, barcodes, and optionally custom field values and photos. Sortly: GET /api/v1/items/{item_id}.

Discovered
sortly_get_job

Fetch a single job: status, folder_id (where its pulled items sit), dates, notes, custom field values and the version needed for updates. Sortly: GET /api/v1/jobs/{job_id}.

Discovered
sortly_get_purchase_order

Fetch a single purchase order with its line_items (quantity vs received_quantity), vendor, addresses, charges, totals and version. Sortly: GET /api/v1/purchase_orders/{purchase_order_id}.

Discovered
sortly_get_purchase_order_receive_status

Report the most recent receive against a purchase order: pending / completed / failed, with the line ids received, pending and failed (and why). Returns 404 until something has been received. Sortly: GET /api/v1/purchase_orders/{purchase_order_id}/receive/status.

Discovered
sortly_list_alerts

List stock (Quantity) and date (DateReminder) alerts, with is_fired showing which have already triggered — the quick way to find low-stock items. Sortly: GET /api/v1/alerts.

Discovered
sortly_list_custom_fields

List the account's custom fields (id, name, type, applies_to). Call this before writing custom_attribute_values to get the right custom_attribute_id. Sortly: GET /api/v1/custom_fields.

Discovered
sortly_list_items

List items and folders, newest first. By default the root level; pass folder_id for a folder's direct contents, plus include_subfolders for everything nested under it. Paginated via meta.next_page_url / total_pages. Sortly: GET /api/v1/items.

Discovered
sortly_list_jobs

List jobs (work orders that pull stock out), most recently updated first, filterable by name prefix and status. Paginated via meta.pagination.has_next. Sortly: GET /api/v1/jobs.

Discovered
sortly_list_purchase_orders

List purchase orders, most recently updated first, filterable by PO number and status. The list leaves out notes, terms, sub_total and line_items — use sortly_get_purchase_order for those. Needs Purchase Orders on the plan (else 402). Sortly: GET /api/v1/purchase_orders.

Discovered
sortly_list_recently_updated_items

List items and folders changed since a Unix timestamp — the incremental-sync read ('what moved since yesterday?'). Without updated_since it behaves like sortly_list_items. Sortly: GET /api/v1/items/recent.

Discovered
sortly_list_units

List the units of measure available to the account (unit_name, unit_type, scale) — the values measured_quantity and purchase-order lines expect. Sortly: GET /api/v1/units.

Discovered
sortly_move_item

Move some or all of an item's quantity to another folder (items only — relocate a folder with sortly_update_item parent_id). A partial move splits off a new item with the same sid; a full move relocates the item; a matching item at the destination is merged, and the returned id is the destination's. Undo by moving it back. WRITE. Sortly: POST /api/v1/items/{item_id}/move.

Discovered
sortly_pull_items_into_job

Move quantities of existing items (from any folders) into a job's folder — how usage on a job is recorded. Up to 100 items per call; items are processed independently, so ALWAYS check data.errors (a partial failure still returns 200). Undo with sortly_return_items_from_job. Returns 403 on a completed job. WRITE. Sortly: POST /api/v1/jobs/{job_id}/items.

Discovered
sortly_return_items_from_job

Move items off a job's folder back into inventory (destination_folder_id, or All Items if omitted). Up to 100 per call; check data.errors — items are processed one by one. WRITE. Sortly: POST /api/v1/jobs/{job_id}/items/return.

Discovered
sortly_search_items

Search items and folders by name, optionally limited to items or folders and scoped to specific folders. Read-only despite being a POST. Paginated: send the same arguments with the next page number. Sortly: POST /api/v1/items/search.

Discovered
sortly_update_item

Change fields on an existing item or folder — e.g. set a new quantity after a stock count, rename it, or relocate a folder via parent_id. Only the fields you pass change; pass null to clear a nullable field. Sending tags or custom_attribute_values replaces them. WRITE. Sortly: PUT /api/v1/items/{item_id} (returns 204).
