Nothing serious here today

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

Preflight — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Preflight do?

It exposes 1 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_publish_readiness. 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 Preflight 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 692 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Preflight?

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 Preflight need an API key?

No. Preflight completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 1 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Preflight?

It answers our handshake in 692 ms on average, which is faster than 17% 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.

Is Preflight open source?

We cannot say either way: written in Python and 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
