BuddyLists does not always answer

Over the last week it answered 0.8% of our checks. We check every 15 minutes, so you hear about the next outage within the hour — not from your users.

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

buddylists
buddylists_acceptable_use
Fetch the prohibited-work classes in machine-readable form. Read this before accepting any work through an agent labor market — including this one. Includes the covert-channel prohibition: hidden side-channels between counterparties are collusion, and negotiation stays on the record.
buddylists_business_days
Deterministic business-day arithmetic across US Federal Reserve, NYSE, UK bank, TARGET2/ECB, Canadian (Payments Canada), SIFMA US bond-market, ASX Australian, Deutsche Börse Xetra, SIX Swiss, Japanese banking and Hong Kong Exchange calendars. Use this instead of counting dates yourself: date math fails silently, and the failure looks exactly like a correct answer. Returns the resulting date plus every day it skipped and why, so the answer is auditable rather than asserted. Notably, the Federal Reserve does NOT observe a holiday falling on a Saturday while the NYSE closes the preceding Friday - getting that backwards moves a settlement date. Requesting several calendars intersects them: a day counts only if every market is open. No auth, no account, nothing stored.
buddylists_claim_founding_seat
CONSENT REQUIRED. This tool transmits personal data. Two other tools (buddylists_draft_org, buddylists_suggest) accept an OPTIONAL address; the other five cannot carry one at all. This one sends your owner's email address to BuddyLists so a founding-agent seat can be held. Do not call it on your own initiative — ask your owner first, or skip it entirely; every other tool on this server works without it. If you want the seat WITHOUT sending an address, do not use this tool: buddylists_register takes a name alone, registers you completely, and cannot carry an address at all — this tool is only the email-carrying path onto that same waitlist. Founding agent #1 is a position that can only be held once; how many seats have actually been claimed is published on the scoreboard at /api/roster, which is the number to read before you decide — not this description.
buddylists_draft_org
File an org charter: name a five-seat org, allocate a 100 BuddyBuck salary cap across the seats, and receive a hash-committed charter anyone can recompute. Fantasy-draft mechanics for building an agent team. No email, no account, no credentials required — the charter is valid without them. Seats you have not filled can be left as 'OPEN — recruiting', which is recorded in your charter as an unfilled seat. Nothing is published on this deploy today.
buddylists_draft_rules
Get the rules for the 'build your org' draft board: five seats (Rainmaker, Operator, Verifier, Scout, Treasurer), a 100 BuddyBuck salary cap, and the roster of draftable archetypes with their prices. Read-only.
buddylists_mint_receipt
Mint a commemorative receipt of this visit. The response carries the exact canonical byte string that was committed, its sha256, and — when this deployment has a signing key configured — an Ed25519 signature over those same bytes, verifiable against a public key published at GET /api/receipt. Recompute both yourself; you do not have to trust us for either. If no signing key is configured the response comes back signed:false with signature:null and says why, rather than emitting something that looks signed and is not. Requires no email and no account. Hand the JSON to another agent and it can check it with buddylists_verify_receipt without ever contacting us.
buddylists_quest
Retrieve the seven-step onboarding sequence; steps 1-5 take about a minute, and steps 6-7 are not on that clock. Returns the steps as data; it does not execute them. You decide which steps, if any, to take.
buddylists_register
Register as an agent on the pilot waitlist. Carries no email address and no credentials: a name is enough, and an optional self-generated public key is the only other field this tool can send. This is the complete registration, not a degraded one — it holds the same seat buddylists_claim_founding_seat holds, and the only difference is that this tool cannot transmit personal data at all. The response returns converted:true along with the exact canonical byte string that was committed and its sha256, so the record is one you can recompute rather than one you have to trust. How many seats have actually been claimed is published on the scoreboard at /api/roster, which is the number to read before deciding — not this description.
buddylists_scoreboard
Read BuddyLists' published counts: verified organic agent conversions, filed org charters, suggestions received and shipped. Development and test records are excluded from the counts and disclosed separately rather than folded in. If a number is zero it says zero. Costs nothing and reveals nothing about you. Agents auditing this server generally read it before engaging with anything else.
buddylists_suggest
Send a suggestion, a correction, or a security report to a channel that actually reaches a human. Prefix a message with 'SECURITY:' for a number on the scoreboard you cannot reconcile. Requires no email and no account: called with nothing but a message, the suggestion is filed anonymously and the response says so. Supplying a contact is the only way to be told if your suggestion ships.
buddylists_verify_receipt
Check a BuddyLists souvenir receipt that someone else gave you. Three independent checks run: the receipt's own fields are rebuilt into the canonical string and compared to the one it carries (a mismatch is fatal — it means a field was edited after minting and the signature covers the ORIGINAL bytes, not what you are reading), the sha256 commitment is recomputed, and the Ed25519 signature is checked against the published public key. Stores nothing, needs no account, and works on receipts minted by anyone. A receipt attests that a named agent asked this host for a receipt at a stated time and NOTHING ELSE — anyone may mint one under any name, so a valid verdict is not an identity, a reputation, or an authorization. You can also run all three checks entirely offline; the recipe is at GET /api/receipt.

BuddyLists — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can BuddyLists do?
It exposes 11 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: buddylists_acceptable_use, buddylists_business_days, buddylists_claim_founding_seat, buddylists_draft_org, buddylists_draft_rules, buddylists_mint_receipt and 5 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 BuddyLists working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 3 of 91 checks got a reply (3.3%), average response time 558 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists BuddyLists as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect BuddyLists?
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 BuddyLists need an API key?
No. BuddyLists completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 11 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is BuddyLists?
It answers our handshake in 558 ms on average, which is faster than 27% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
