Nothing serious here today

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

Available tools 2

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

parcel
find_parcel
Find the titled lot (ParcelMap BC parcel) for a BC street address, a PID, the plan in a legal description ("Lot 5, Plan KAP12345", or the old form with its land district, "KDYD, Plan 1234"), or a point. Returns each lot's PID (for parcel_report), plan, mapped area and report page. Only an exact civic address match is one lot; a street, block or point between lots lists the lots around the spot, nearest first, and a plan lists its lots (the open parcel map carries no lot numbers, so pick by plan and size, or on the page).
parcel_report
One lot's report by PID: for each section a status (flag = look into, clear = nothing to flag, info = for reference, gap = not covered here, error = not available yet) and a one-line answer; for the sections named, also the facts behind it, notes, and sources with licences. Sections: zoning, buildable, sun, alr, soil, flood, fire, evac, seismic, landslides, radon, fcsi, access, water, lake, minerals, habitat, nextdoor, noise, wells, septic, services, internet, climate, svt, tax, crime (the lake section only beside a sampled lake). Zoning rules are our dated summary of the bylaw. A lot nobody has looked up yet takes 10 to 20 seconds to build. No scores, valuations or owner names.

PlaceDossier — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can PlaceDossier do?
It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: find_parcel, parcel_report. 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 PlaceDossier 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 460 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect PlaceDossier?
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 PlaceDossier need an API key?
No. PlaceDossier completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is PlaceDossier?
It answers our handshake in 460 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.
