Court Records — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Is Court Records working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 92 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 392 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

The registry lists Court Records 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 Court Records?

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 Court Records need an API key?

No. Court Records completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

Is Court Records open source?

The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 6 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at court-records-mcp.apify.actor, which runs on its operator's own terms.
