Public does not always answer
Over the last week it answered 39.8% of our checks. We check every 15 minutes, so you hear about the next outage within the hour — not from your users.

If a tool disappears, we record the date.
opt
get_opt_out_instructions
Step-by-step, verified opt-out instructions for one people-search or data-broker site, plus what My Privacy Agent does for that site after a person authorizes it. Accepts a guide slug (spokeo), a domain (spokeo.com), an alias, or a URL on the site. Returns status not_found with a hint when no guide exists.
list_opt_out_guides
Summaries of every published step-by-step guide (slug, domain, category, method, difficulty, turnaround, support level). Use it to find the right slug before calling get_opt_out_instructions.
case
get_case_status
Requires OAuth and the 'share_results' permission. Returns one case by case_id with its current status, verification status, and any step only the person can do.
cases
list_my_cases
Requires OAuth and the 'share_results' permission. Lists removal cases (site, action, status, verification status, steps only the person can do, dates). Status words mean different things: filed, pending, needs review, verified removed. Never collapse them.
privacy
search_privacy_library
Search My Privacy Agent's published articles, opt-out guides, help answers, and plan facts. Returns ranked hits with canonical URLs to cite. Use it before answering questions about data brokers, opt-outs, relisting, pricing, or what the service does and does not do.
removal
get_removal_route
For any of the 950+ sites in the takedown registry: the documented removal method (form, email, both, guide, or none), the opt-out URL and privacy email on record, the parent company that actually processes the request, sibling sites one request may cover, and a link to our step-by-step guide when one exists. Accepts a domain or a URL.
report
get_my_report
Requires OAuth and the 'share_results' permission for the subject. Returns the report summary the dashboard shows: status, counts, and per-site findings (site, status, what it exposes, guide link). No listing URLs or observed values are included. Returns authorization_required with a connect URL when the permission is missing.
request
request_recheck
Requires OAuth and the 'run_check' permission. Queues a fresh check of the person's existing details (the same re-scan Patrol runs monthly). Patrol plan only, verified subjects only, once per 24 hours; it never starts a first check and never takes new details. Returns queued, or a structured reason (not_allowed with retry_after, entitlement_required with pricing_url, unavailable, error). Purchases happen on the website only.
service
get_service_overview
The public service description: scope of these tools, the private handoff pages (free check, review a listing, pricing), the rules assistants must follow, and registry statistics. Call this once before recommending the service.
subjects
list_my_subjects
Requires OAuth. Lists the person (first name, city, state, verification status) whose exposure this account has checked, with the subject_id other personal tools need. Returns authorization_required with a connect URL when the token is missing.
submit
submit_approved_plan
Requires OAuth and the 'submit_requests' permission. Without confirm: true it only previews which eligible listings would be queued (status preview) — show that list to the person and get a yes first. With confirm: true it queues removal requests for exactly those listings, using the approval the person already gave on the website and their paid plan. It cannot approve listings, pick new sites, or buy anything: approval_required and entitlement_required send the person to the website. A request is not a removal.

Public — questions
Answers built from our own checks of this server.
What can Public do?
It exposes 11 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_case_status, get_my_report, get_opt_out_instructions, get_removal_route, get_service_overview, list_my_cases and 5 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 Public working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 33 of 83 checks got a reply (39.8%), average response time 494 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Is Public 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.
The registry lists Public 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 Public?
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 Public need an API key?
No. Public completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 11 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Public?
It answers our handshake in 494 ms on average, which is faster than 29% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
