Fallback missed 2 checks this week

Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

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.

error
error_route
Diagnose a failed API, HTTP, MCP, or tool request and return a bounded safe next action. Use it after a request fails when the safe next step is unclear. Provide a status, response, or error text; it does not execute requests or verify undocumented fixes. Price: $0.002 USD per call via x402.
request
request_repair
Repair a failed API or HTTP request using only supplied schema and error evidence. Use after error_route identifies a request-shape or input problem. Returns the smallest justified request changes and abstains when evidence is insufficient. Price: $0.005 USD per call via x402.
source
source_route
Find likely authoritative or machine-readable sources when you know what information you need but not where to retrieve it. Provide a goal and optional publisher domain or start URL; it returns ranked candidate routes and bounded evidence. Use it before blind searching. Do not use it when you already have the correct source or only need reasoning over supplied context. Price: $0.02 USD per call via x402.
stop
stop_search
Decide whether another search or paid retrieval is worth the cost based on the scope already checked. Use after several search or source checks when you need to decide whether to continue or return a scoped not-found result. It does not prove universal absence and performs no searches itself. Price: $0.003 USD per call via x402.

Fallback — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Fallback do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: error_route, request_repair, source_route, stop_search. 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 Fallback 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 175 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Fallback?
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 Fallback need an API key?
No. Fallback 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 Fallback?
It answers our handshake in 175 ms on average, which is faster than 68% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Fallback open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript 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.
