This one needs environment variables set before it will start: AGENT_READY_API_KEY (Agent Ready Pro API key for scan_site and get_scan. ask and validate_structured_data work without one. Issue a key at https://agent-ready.dev/dashboard/api-keys.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Available tools 3

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

scan

get_scan

Fetches a completed or in-progress scan by its id. Only scans owned by the authenticated API key's user are returned.

scan_site

Runs the agent-ready.dev scanner against a URL and returns structured results: Vercel score, llmstxt.org score, and per-check findings with remediation hints. Scans may take up to ~60s; for larger scans the tool returns a scan id and asks you to poll with get_scan.

ask

ask

Natural-language search (NLWeb /ask) over Agent Ready's own content — scoring methodology, the check registry, the specs it validates, and the content library (explainers, comparisons, how-to guides, glossary). Returns Schema.org-typed result objects. Optional itemType narrows to a corpus type; mode 'summarize' adds an extractive summary.

Agent Ready — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Agent Ready do?

It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: ask, get_scan, scan_site. 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 Agent Ready working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 20 of 91 checks got a reply (22.0%), average response time 732 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

The registry lists Agent Ready 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 Agent Ready?

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 Agent Ready need an API key?

No. Agent Ready completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Agent Ready?

It answers our handshake in 732 ms on average, which is faster than 16% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

How many people use Agent Ready?

The npm package agent-ready-mcp was installed 69 times in the last week. Week over week that is +181%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is Agent Ready open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 1 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
