Every tool that appeared, vanished or quietly changed what it asks for. Recorded since 2 November 2026. No other catalogue keeps this.

Nothing serious here today

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

Available tools 7

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

archetypes
list_archetypes
The workout archetypes the generator makes, one per line: key, name, formats, minutes, line count, and the session slots it serves.
equipment
list_equipment
The equipment suggest_workouts' `equipment` takes, one per line: key: name, with "(machine)" on ergometers (rower, ski erg, bikes). Keys, names and common names ("echo", "row erg", "DB", "kb") all work.
generate
generate_workouts
New workouts unlike any in the library, from our generator (no AI), as text: evolved from the library's workouts and movements (more lines, fewer, other formats) into kinds it does not hold. For one person. Nothing is saved; other ones each call. suggest_workouts and vary_workout stay close to library workouts instead. A shortfall says what blocked it.
movements
find_movements
Movement slugs whose name holds `query` (e.g. "row", "sled"), for suggest_workouts' include and exclude, machines and runs first.
report
report_workout
A user's verdict on a workout from these tools: a mistake (wrong equipment, a weight, a dose that cannot fit), or a workout they found bad or good. Stores the user's words for Goblin Gains, nothing else about the user.
suggest
suggest_workouts
New workouts from our generator, as text. Ask this instead of writing workouts yourself. Nothing is saved. Example, two people with an echo bike, rower and ski erg, 40-60 min: suggest_workouts(count=5, people=2, minutes_min=40, minutes_max=60, equipment=["echo-bike", "row-ergometer", "ski-erg"], bodyweight=False) A shortfall says what blocked it.
vary
vary_workout
Variations of one library workout from our generator (no AI), as text, in its own format or another. Nothing is saved. A shortfall says what blocked it.

goblingains — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can goblingains do?
It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: find_movements, generate_workouts, list_archetypes, list_equipment, report_workout, suggest_workouts and 1 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 goblingains 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 163 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect goblingains?
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 goblingains need an API key?
No. goblingains completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 7 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is goblingains?
It answers our handshake in 163 ms on average, which is faster than 78% 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.
