DiscoverSeniorBenefits missed one check this week

Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

Available tools 3

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

eligibility

run_eligibility_scan

Check which senior-benefit programs a person likely qualifies for, using a deterministic rule engine tied to cited .gov sources — no AI guessing. Only age and zip_code are required; every extra field provided turns needs-more-info programs into definite answers. Include marital_status whenever known — many programs' income limits depend on it, so it resolves far more programs than most fields. The full guided check at https://discoverseniorbenefits.com/scan covers additional signals.

program

get_program_details

Full public details for one program by its id (ids come from find_programs_by_zip or run_eligibility_scan): description, cited government source, how to apply, documents required, and the apply-guide link on discoverseniorbenefits.com.

programs

find_programs_by_zip

List the federal, state, and county senior-benefit programs that apply where a person lives, from their 5-digit ZIP code. Each program includes its cited government source URL, a last-verified date, and an apply-guide link on discoverseniorbenefits.com. Optionally filter by jurisdiction level or category keyword.

DiscoverSeniorBenefits — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can DiscoverSeniorBenefits do?

It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: find_programs_by_zip, get_program_details, run_eligibility_scan. 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 DiscoverSeniorBenefits working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 379 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect DiscoverSeniorBenefits?

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 DiscoverSeniorBenefits need an API key?

No. DiscoverSeniorBenefits completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is DiscoverSeniorBenefits?

It answers our handshake in 379 ms on average, which is faster than 40% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
