Core

  • Pass
    Reachable

    Latest probe returned HTTP 200 in 239 ms.

  • Pass
    Valid handshake

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

  • Pass
    Lists tools

    tools/list returned 5 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 239 ms over 1 samples in 7 days. The bar is 1000 ms. Need at least 5 samples.

  • Not measured
    Consistent (p95)

    95th percentile 239 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.

  • Fail
    Parameters documented

    3 of 39 parameters have a description (8%). The bar is 80%.

  • Pass
    Safety hints

    Every tool sets readOnlyHint or destructiveHint.

Publisher

  • Pass
    Verified namespace

    Listed in the Official MCP Registry.

  • Fail
    Website matches publisher

    The website host does not match 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 2026-11-09T20:24:38.483224Z, within 180 days.

Capabilities

Tools 5

get_coverage

Lists which destination countries and service levels Courio can mail a physical paper letter to, with an indicative "from" price (EUR including VAT, 1 black-and-white page), typical delivery time and the legal product name. No account or API key is needed. Call it before quote_letter to check a destination is served; pass a country (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2, e.g. "DE") to narrow the answer. Service levels: "standard" (ordinary mail, no proof), "tracked" (tracking only), "registered" (registered mail: proof of deposit), "registered_ar" (registered with acknowledgement of receipt: proof of delivery, the one to use for legal notices).

Discovered
get_letter_status

Returns the current status of a letter (awaiting_payment, paid, submitted, in_transit, delivered, failed, expired, ...), its timeline and, once available, proof links (proof of deposit for "registered", proof of delivery for "registered_ar"). No account is needed; the letter_id is the credential. Recipient details are partially redacted unless the request carries the API key that created the letter.

Discovered
quote_letter

Prices a physical letter (printed, enveloped and posted by Courio) and returns a quote_id. Free and commits to nothing: no account, no payment, nothing is mailed. Give the service level, sender and recipient postal addresses, and the document (pdf_base64, pdf_url, or plain/markdown text). The price is in EUR including VAT (set currency to "USD" to also see a USD price), fixed for 24 hours. The document is checked and content-moderated; a problem comes back as an error with a hint. Quotes are capped per day (limit_exceeded with retry_after): reuse a quote_id rather than re-quoting. Service levels: "standard" (ordinary mail, no proof), "tracked" (tracking only), "registered" (registered mail: proof of deposit), "registered_ar" (registered with acknowledgement of receipt: proof of delivery, the one to use for legal notices). The quote gives the estimated delivery time (estimated_delivery_days). Next step: show the price, the legal product and the terms of sale (terms_url) to the human, then call send_letter if they agree.

Discovered
send_feedback

Send feedback to the developers of this server: a feature request, or something the user asked for that these tools can't do. The user can also ask you to send feedback directly.

Discovered
send_letter

Creates the letter for a quote and returns a payment link (Stripe Checkout). No account is needed. YOU CANNOT PAY: show the price and the payment link to the human and ask them to open it and pay. The letter is mailed right after payment and cannot be cancelled or recalled once paid, so paying is the point of no return: make sure the human has seen the price, the recipient and the document first. Calling it again with the same quote_id returns the same letter and link (or its current status once it has been paid). The link expires after about 24 hours. Optionally pass webhook_url (public https) to be notified of status changes. Poll get_letter_status to follow the letter. Autonomous agents whose owner gave them a card through a Stripe Shared Payment Token (e.g. Link) can pay by card themselves with MPP through the REST API (POST /v1/letters with payment_method "mpp", which may be disabled: 422 payment_method_unavailable). Agents that can sign crypto payments can instead pay with x402 through the REST API (POST /v1/letters with payment_method "x402", which may be disabled on this deployment: 422 payment_method_unavailable); official x402 clients cap a payment at $1 by default, so raise the spend limit to cover the quoted price first.
