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

proof
proof_fetch_evidence
Fetch a public URL and return its cited, paragraph-addressable text with integrity hashes and a receipt. Uses one credit from a ProofFetch key, and only when extraction succeeds. Needs the key sent as the MCP request header Authorization: Bearer <key>: a free key holds 1,000 extractions (no card, POST /v1/keys/free or the ProofFetch home page); a paid key holds 500 for $5.00 (sold on the ProofFetch home page). Example: {"url":"https://example.com/"}.
proof_fetch_offer
Returns the offer and request schema without buying. Full cited text: 1,000 free extractions with a free key (no card), then $0.01 a page either way: a 500-page card pack for $5, or $0.50 per Stripe MPP call, which returns the page plus an API key holding 49 more. Cited text uses POST /v1/evidence with a caller-generated idempotency key. Example arguments: {}.
proof_fetch_preflight
Free: checks a public URL and returns fetchability, provenance, hashes, deterministic injection indicators and a free preview of the first 1,000 or so characters of text (short pages come back whole); not a safety guarantee. No payment or purchase. Example: {"url":"https://example.com/","maxChars":30000}.

It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: proof_fetch_evidence, proof_fetch_offer, proof_fetch_preflight.

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 273 of 273 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 196 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect ProofFetch — Cited Web Evidence?

Does ProofFetch — Cited Web Evidence need an API key?
No. ProofFetch — Cited Web Evidence 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 ProofFetch — Cited Web Evidence?
It answers our handshake in 196 ms on average, which is faster than 69% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is ProofFetch — Cited Web Evidence open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at proof-fetch-agent-api.neoaethel.workers.dev, which runs on its operator's own terms.
