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.

artistally
artistally_get_convention
Full profile of one convention by slug: dates, venue and address, website, artist-alley and vendor registration windows/costs/URLs, portfolio and table-share policy, hotel block, transit access, organizer verification, and up to 6 years of attendance/pricing history. Get slugs from artistally_search_conventions or an ArtistAlly event URL.
artistally_get_coverage
The regions, states/provinces, and metro areas ArtistAlly tracks, with approved-convention counts. Use it to learn valid region/state/metro filter values for the other tools. Takes no arguments.
artistally_list_open_registrations
Artist-alley and vendor/dealer registration windows that are open right now or opening soon, sorted by urgency (soonest close date first). The go-to tool for questions like "which cons can I still apply to?" or "what artist alleys open this month?".
artistally_search_conventions
Search fan conventions (furry, anime, gaming) across 51 US and Canadian metro areas. Filter by text, community, region, state, metro, or date range. Returns dates, venue, location, registration windows and table costs, plus a canonical ArtistAlly URL per convention.

ArtistAlly — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can ArtistAlly do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: artistally_get_convention, artistally_get_coverage, artistally_list_open_registrations, artistally_search_conventions. 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 ArtistAlly working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 502 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect ArtistAlly?
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 ArtistAlly need an API key?
No. ArtistAlly 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 ArtistAlly?
It answers our handshake in 502 ms on average, which is faster than 23% 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.
Is ArtistAlly open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in Dockerfile and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
