Genuine Good Grants 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.

Genuine Good Grants — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Genuine Good Grants do?

It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: federal-grant-detail, federal-grant-search, federal-grant-shortlist-preflight, grant-api-30-day-pass, grant-eligibility-fit, grant-opportunity-brief. 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 →

What is Genuine Good Grants mostly used for?

Its tools cluster around federal and grant. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.

Is Genuine Good Grants 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 685 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Genuine Good Grants?

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 Genuine Good Grants need an API key?

No. Genuine Good Grants completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Genuine Good Grants?

It answers our handshake in 685 ms on average, which is faster than 19% 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 Genuine Good Grants open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, 0 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
