MCPFax Public-Data Utility API — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can MCPFax Public-Data Utility API do?
It exposes 31 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: v1_airports_nearest, v1_air_quality, v1_business_days, v1_cfr, v1_country, v1_crypto_price and 25 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 MCPFax Public-Data Utility API 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 115 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect MCPFax Public-Data Utility API?
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 MCPFax Public-Data Utility API need an API key?
No. MCPFax Public-Data Utility API completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 31 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is MCPFax Public-Data Utility API?
It answers our handshake in 115 ms on average, which is faster than 88% 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.
