Handoff MCP Server does not always answer

Over the last week it answered 50.0% of our checks. We check every 15 minutes, so you hear about the next outage within the hour — not from your users.

Handoff MCP Server — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Handoff MCP Server do?

It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: add, echo, server_time. 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 Handoff MCP Server working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 184 checks got a reply (50.0%), average response time 331 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Handoff MCP Server?

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. You will need your own credentials: it refuses anonymous clients.

Does Handoff MCP Server need an API key?

Yes. Every time we knock, Handoff MCP Server answers with an authorization challenge instead of its tool list — that is how we know it is running and gated rather than broken. Bring your own credentials and it will talk.

How fast is Handoff MCP Server?

It answers our handshake in 331 ms on average, which is faster than 46% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is Handoff MCP Server open source?

We cannot say either way: written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
