Available tools 4

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

categories
list_categories
List every tag used in one catalog dimension with the number of listed services carrying it. Use the returned tags as exact filter values for search_services.
listed
check_if_listed
Check whether a company is listed in the ISMS Directory. Returns the listing when found, close matches otherwise, and the free submission URL when it is not listed.
service
get_service_details
Full public profile of one listed service (description, frameworks, regions, industries, client sizes, languages, website, directory page). Matches the name case-insensitively, then by partial name.
services
search_services
Search the ISMS Directory catalog of ISO 27001, SOC 2, GDPR, DORA, NIS 2 and other compliance service providers (consultants, auditors, platforms, training). Filters are exact tags; several frameworks are combined with AND. Use list_categories first if you are unsure of a tag. Results are sorted by name, not ranked. Same data as GET https://ismsdirectory.com/api/search.

ISMS Directory — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can ISMS Directory do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_if_listed, get_service_details, list_categories, search_services. 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 ISMS Directory working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 23 of 91 checks got a reply (25.3%), average response time 296 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists ISMS Directory as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect ISMS Directory?
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 ISMS Directory need an API key?
No. ISMS Directory completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is ISMS Directory?
It answers our handshake in 296 ms on average, which is faster than 50% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use ISMS Directory?
The npm package @ismsdirectory/mcp-server was installed 53 times in the last week. Week over week that is +104%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
