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.

Available tools 2

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

public

get_public_holidays

Full list of official public holidays for a country in a given year. Use for "what are the holidays in Germany in 2026", planning around a country's holiday calendar, or any "list the holidays for X" question. `country_code` is a 2-letter ISO code (US, GB, DE, FR, JP, ...) -- roughly 100 countries are covered, not every country worldwide. Returns each holiday's date, local name, English name, and type (e.g. Public, Bank, Observance).

is_public_holiday

Checks whether one specific date is a public holiday in a country, and names it if so. Use for "is Dec 25 2026 a holiday in the US", "is the office closed on this date", or any single-date holiday check -- prefer this over `get_public_holidays` when the question is about just one day. `country_code` is a 2-letter ISO code; `date` is YYYY-MM-DD. Returns whether it's a holiday and, if so, its name.

Holidays MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Holidays MCP do?

It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_public_holidays, is_public_holiday. 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 Holidays MCP 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 213 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

Is Holidays MCP 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 Holidays MCP?

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 Holidays MCP need an API key?

No. Holidays MCP completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Holidays MCP?

It answers our handshake in 213 ms on average, which is faster than 59% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
