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

report

create_report

Creates a report draft for a website and starts reading it. Free plan: one website, one report every 30 days. Returns 202 Accepted with the report, a job object and a Location header: poll that URL (GET /api/v1/reports/{reportId}) every few seconds until stage is needs_confirmation, then call the start endpoint. Send an Idempotency-Key header so a retry cannot start a second report. Needs login with scope reports:write.

get_report

While stage is needs_confirmation it returns the business profile and the proposed buyer questions. While running it returns progress. When finished it returns visibility numbers, the brands AI named, and a count of lost questions. Needs login with scope reports:read.

get_report_actions

For a finished report: up to three ranked moves (reason, exact edit, page, effort) and, for each buyer question AI answered with a rival, who won and why. Needs login with scope reports:read.

account

get_account

Returns the user's plan (free or early_access), when the pass ends, what the plan allows, and how to upgrade. Needs login with scope account:read.

agent

get_agent_readiness

Score, grade, layer breakdown and ranked fixes from the newest scan of the report's website. Needs the Early Access pass; otherwise 402 with a link a person can open to buy it. Needs login with scope agent-readiness:read.

batch

batch_get_reports

Batch read: send a list of report ids and get each report (or its error) in one answer, instead of one call per report. Each result has its own status, so one unknown id does not fail the rest. Read-only. Needs login with scope reports:read.

faq

list_faq

Every FAQ question and answer from the home page, paged. No login. No login needed.

pricing

get_pricing

The free plan and the one-time Early Access pass: price, what each includes, refund window. Payment needs a person in a browser. No login. No login needed.

product

get_product

Facts about the product: what it does, who it is for, what it does not do, and how an agent can use it. No login. No login needed.

reports

list_reports

The user's reports, newest first, paged with a cursor. Each has its stage (analyzing, needs_confirmation, running, finished, failed). Needs login with scope reports:read.

sample

get_sample_report

Shows the shape of a real report (visibility numbers, rivals, ranked plan) for a fictional coffee roaster. Made-up data, no login. No login needed.

scan

scan_agent_readiness

Runs, or reuses a result under 24 hours old, for the report's website. Set force to true to scan again after fixing something. Rate limited. Needs login with scope agent-readiness:scan.

start

start_report

Accepts the proposed business profile and buyer questions (optionally a chosen subset of 3 to 6 question ids) and starts asking the AI engines. Takes about two minutes: answers 202 Accepted with a Location header to poll until stage is finished. Safe to repeat; send an Idempotency-Key header to make a retry return the first answer. Needs login with scope reports:write.

Moatlight — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Moatlight do?

It exposes 13 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: batch_get_reports, create_report, get_account, get_agent_readiness, get_pricing, get_product and 7 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 Moatlight working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 21 of 157 checks got a reply (13.4%), average response time 1004 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

The registry lists Moatlight 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 Moatlight?

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 Moatlight need an API key?

No. Moatlight completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 13 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Moatlight?

It answers our handshake in 1004 ms on average, which is faster than 4% 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.

Is Moatlight open source?

The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at moatlight.com, which runs on its operator's own terms.
