This one has been quiet for a while

Quiet is not dead — but it is worth knowing when it wakes up, or when someone else takes it over. We watch the repository and tell you either way.

FCC License Search — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can FCC License Search do?

It exposes 7 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: fcc_changes, fcc_company, fcc_coverage, fcc_search, fcc_snapshot, fcc_snapshots 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 FCC License Search 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 120 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

Is FCC License Search still maintained?

The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.

How do I connect FCC License Search?

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 FCC License Search need an API key?

No. FCC License Search 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 FCC License Search?

It answers our handshake in 120 ms on average, which is faster than 81% 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.
