Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Brainiall Web every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

This endpoint answered with an authorization challenge. The server is running, and it signs you in through your browser: there is no API key to paste.

Available tools 5

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

web

check_web_service

Check whether the web reading service is responding.

search_web

Find relevant web pages when you do not already know their URLs.

crawl

crawl_site

Read multiple linked pages with strict page and depth limits. Use only when several pages are required. If you merely need to discover a site's structure, use map_site first because crawling is slower and costlier.

map

map_site

List a site's URLs so an agent can select pages before reading them. Prefer this inexpensive discovery step before crawl_site. Map first, then call read_page for selected URLs unless content from many pages is required.

page

read_page

Read one known web page as clean Markdown without raw HTML noise. Use this for documentation, articles, and product pages when the URL is already known. For an unfamiliar site, use map_site first to choose useful URLs instead of crawling every page.

Brainiall Web — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Brainiall Web do?

It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_web_service, crawl_site, map_site, read_page, search_web. 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 Brainiall Web 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 671 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Brainiall Web?

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. You sign in through your browser once and the client keeps the session: no key to copy, and it refuses anonymous clients.

How do you sign in to Brainiall Web?

No API key is involved. Brainiall Web answers our knock with an OAuth challenge, so you authorise it once in your browser and the client keeps the session. That is also why we see no tool list: it will not describe itself to an anonymous client, and that is the server working as intended, not a fault.

How fast is Brainiall Web?

It answers our handshake in 671 ms on average, which is faster than 15% 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.
