Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

best
find_best_total_deal
Find the cheapest price and best deal for an exact new physical product. Use for requests like “where to buy,” “price comparison,” “lowest total cost including shipping,” or “is it in stock?” It resolves the model and variant, checks current offers, shipping, stock, delivery timing, and known mandatory fees.
fastest
get_fastest_completion_path
Find the fastest official way to complete a practical task. Use for requests like “how do I cancel,” “return an item,” “get a refund,” “file a warranty claim,” or “find the official form.” It returns ordered, source-backed steps and exact official links; it does not log in or submit the action.
products
check_products_compatibility
Check whether two exact products are compatible. Use for requests like “will this fit,” “does this work with,” “compatible with,” or “is an adapter needed?” It checks identifiers and source-backed specifications for accessories, parts, consumables, chargers, cables, mounts, batteries, computer components, and automotive parts.
used
find_used_or_refurbished_alternatives
Find where to buy an exact product used, refurbished, or open box and decide whether the cheaper alternative is worth it. Use for requests like “buy used,” “refurbished,” “open box,” “cheaper alternative,” or “is used worth it?” It compares verified used options with the best new price, condition, returns, and warranty.

TaskRail — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can TaskRail do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_products_compatibility, find_best_total_deal, find_used_or_refurbished_alternatives, get_fastest_completion_path. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is TaskRail working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 614 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Is TaskRail still maintained?
The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.
How do I connect TaskRail?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does TaskRail need an API key?
No. TaskRail completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is TaskRail?
It answers our handshake in 614 ms on average, which is faster than 16% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
