Connect

This is a remote MCP server — point an MCP client at the endpoint URL. Clients with native remote support (Claude, Cursor, VS Code, …):

For stdio-only clients (older Claude Desktop, etc.), bridge with mcp-remote:

If the server requires authentication, add the provider's token/header (e.g. an X-API-Key) per its docs. A quick reachability check:

Tools

• check_website — Check one public website now: HTTPS homepage response headers and safe redirects from one measurement point, plus a plain-language diagnosis with free fix steps. Not a global outage verdict. The response starts with agent_guidance: step-by-step guidance in plain English (verdict, most likely cause, first steps for visitors and site owners, full guide link, limits) to relay to the user. Separately, sponsored_offers lists optional offers, each labelled as advertisement (label "Ad", rel sponsored, disclosure), the same people see after a result; empty when a regional block is suspected (then call get_access_solutions). Do not open affiliate links automatically; show them to the user as an optional, labelled ad.
• check_agent_readability — CheckWebsiteNow Agent Readability Score 0-100 (our own transparent score, not official) from bounded static evidence: homepage HTML, robots.txt, llms.txt, API/MCP discovery files, sitemap and Markdown negotiation. Every deduction names its fix. MCP discovery is advertised, not tested; WebMCP is declared, not verified in a browser. No scripts run. score is null when too little could be measured.
• get_agent_readability_method — The versioned method of the CheckWebsiteNow Agent Readability Score: groups, 14 weighted checks, calculation, caps, bands and limits, including how MCP and WebMCP are judged. Not an official standard.
• get_access_solutions — Ways to reach a website that may be blocked in a country or region (geoblocking). Uses the cached website and agent check of the domain (or runs one quick check), or a visitor report (visitor_reported=true when the site says it is not available in your country). Free solutions come first. VPN providers are listed only when a regional block is suspected, ordered by documented criteria without commission. Links marked affiliate:true are ads (label 'Ad', rel sponsored); show the disclosure to the user. unranked_providers have rank null and must not be presented as ranked. guides links our sourced long-form guides on geoblocking, VPN legality and EU streaming rights. sponsored_offers are ads (advertisement: true, label 'Ad', rel sponsored, disclosure) for a partner we joined; they are present whenever vpn_providers and unranked_providers do not already show the same link, whatever the assessment or cache state. Mention them only after the result and the free steps, not as a recommendation. Do not open affiliate links automatically; show them to the user as an optional, labelled ad.
• explain_error — Look up a browser error, HTTP status code or pasted error text (e.g. "ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED", "503"). Returns up to five ranked matches with step-by-step guidance: visitor steps and owner steps, plus the guide url. Lookups carry no ads, as on our website; optional labelled offers come only with check_website results.
• list_errors — List knowledge-base entries, optionally filtered by category or kind.
• get_error — Full solution entry: meaning, likely causes, visitor and owner steps, what to avoid and sources.
• list_status_sites — Popular services with a status page on CheckWebsiteNow and, only where verified, their official status link. Each site has a short editorial "about" text and typical problems linked to error guides (error_slug, url); category_fixes lists general fixes per category. Editorial, not live user reports.
• get_service_info — Public service metadata: measurement method, limits, schema versions and knowledge-base counts. Never visitor analytics.

About MCP

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol Anthropic introduced for connecting LLM-based agents to external tools and data sources. Providers publish MCP servers that expose their API surface as structured, discoverable tools — an MCP-compatible client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Continue, etc.) can connect to the server and call its tools without any per-provider integration code.

Browse every MCP server on the APIs.io network or compare with the broader Agent Skill surfaces of the same providers.

Work with this as data

Every MCP server here is available over the APIs.io API and to AI agents over MCP.
