Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

A line of code looks encrypted src/db.ts:11
  "eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJpc3MiOiJzdXBhYmFzZSIsInJlZiI6IndtcGlhYnpsY2FxeXJ6eHZmaWhpIiwicm9sZSI6ImFub24iLCJpYXQiOjE3ODEyMDg0MjEsImV4cCI6MjA5Njc4NDQyMX0.luvtvGCO1fs-8AmmTM9QkRahUfWpaU36CbCcAPs-nlI";

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Percolate — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Percolate do?
It exposes 8 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: compare_coffees, dial_in_suggestion, find_similar, get_coffee, get_recommendations, search_coffees 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 Percolate working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 184 of 184 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 881 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Percolate?
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 Percolate need an API key?
No. Percolate 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 Percolate?
It answers our handshake in 881 ms on average, which is faster than 9% 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.
How many people use Percolate?
The npm package percolate-mcp was installed 38 times in the last week. Week over week that is -64%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Percolate 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.
