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.

material

get_material_pack

Return the bundled factors, densities, coverages, waste defaults, purchase increments, unit conversions, sources, and raw-pack SHA.

list_material_pack

List the bundled material pack version, digest, coverage, shapes, rebar sizes, roof pitches, and explicit unsupported policy.

assemblies

list_assemblies

List supported assemblies, required dimensions, formulas, waste defaults, and the current material-pack digest.

assembly

get_assembly

Return one assembly's formula, required dimensions, material factors, purchase increment, sources, and material-pack lineage.

calculate

calculate_takeoff

Calculate an auditable material takeoff from explicit geometry or a supported SmartScale/ProtoGen measurement payload. Returns net, explicit waste-adjusted, and conservative purchase quantities. This is a planning estimate, not a guaranteed material order or professional certification.

describe

describe_agent

Return fleet-standard capabilities, version, pack digest, disclaimer, composition role, and pricing.

verify

verify_result

Recompute a takeoff audit hash, notary payload, pack currency, and QT9 unit-resolved conservation. Pass the prior result object as JSON.

Quantity Takeoff — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Quantity Takeoff do?

It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: calculate_takeoff, describe_agent, get_assembly, get_material_pack, list_assemblies, list_material_pack 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 Quantity Takeoff 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 330 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Quantity Takeoff?

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 Quantity Takeoff need an API key?

No. Quantity Takeoff 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 Quantity Takeoff?

It answers our handshake in 330 ms on average, which is faster than 43% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is Quantity Takeoff open source?

Yes — written in Python, 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.
