MCP Grantiq — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can MCP Grantiq do?
It exposes 8 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_agencies, get_contract_details, get_deadlines, get_grant_details, match_opportunities, search_awards and 2 more. 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 MCP Grantiq working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 182 checks got a reply (50.0%), average response time 454 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Is MCP Grantiq still maintained?
The author archived this repository on GitHub, meaning it is no longer maintained. 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 MCP Grantiq?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does MCP Grantiq need an API key?
No. MCP Grantiq completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 8 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is MCP Grantiq?
It answers our handshake in 454 ms on average, which is faster than 28% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is MCP Grantiq open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 0 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at mcp.grantiq.us, which runs on its operator's own terms.
