Nothing serious here today

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

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

breach
breach_notification_deadline
Work out the GDPR / UK GDPR Article 33 deadline for notifying a personal data breach: 72 elapsed hours from becoming aware, given as local time in the person's time zone (IANA zone with daylight saving, or a fixed UTC offset) and in UTC. Returns the deadline, which authority to notify (lead authority, every EU authority where affected people live, or the UK Information Commission), the steps for a controller or processor with their article references, official sources, last-checked date and page link. Uses GlanceDesk Jurisdiction's tested deadline module.
business
business_filing_deadline
Work out a business tax filing deadline and estimate the late penalty: Pakistan income tax return (Income Tax Ordinance s.118 with official FBR extensions; s.182 penalty) and quarterly withholding statements (s.165), UAE Corporate Tax return and payment (9 months after the tax period; registration deadline under FTA Decision 3/2024; Cabinet Decision 75/2023 penalties), UAE VAT return and payment (28th day after the tax period; Cabinet Decision 40/2017 as amended by Cabinet Decision 129/2025), Saudi VAT tax period and due date (Implementing Regulations Arts. 58, 59, 62, 74; VAT Law penalties).

calculator
run_calculator
Run one GlanceDesk Calculators, GlanceDesk Crypto or GlanceDesk Compute calculator with the person's values and get the tested answer with units, a one-sentence explanation, the formula, official sources, last-checked date, page URL and disclaimer. Invalid or missing values return the calculator's own error message; nothing is guessed or filled in.

gulf
gulf_final_settlement
Work out what a private-sector worker is owed when a job ends in Saudi Arabia, the UAE or Qatar: end-of-service award or gratuity, unpaid wages, unused leave and overtime, each line with its labour-law article, plus a claim summary. Uses GlanceDesk Jurisdiction's tested engine.

tools
search_tools
Find GlanceDesk calculators and compliance checks by topic, for example "UAE gratuity", "Pakistan salary tax", "loan EMI", "e-invoicing Saudi", "crypto liquidation price", "concrete mix cement bags". Returns each tool's slug, title, one-line description, page URL and which tool runs it.

GlanceDesk — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can GlanceDesk do?
It exposes 8 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: breach_notification_deadline, business_filing_deadline, data_request_deadline, einvoicing_check, get_tool, gulf_final_settlement and 2 more. 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 GlanceDesk 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 148 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect GlanceDesk?
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 GlanceDesk need an API key?
No. GlanceDesk completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 8 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is GlanceDesk?
It answers our handshake in 148 ms on average, which is faster than 84% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
