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.

agencies
search_agencies
Search Pick an Agency's directory of 47,000+ marketing agencies. Filter by free-text query, service (e.g. SEO, paid ads, social media), country, city, industry, and minimum rating. Returns the top matches with location, rating, reviews and profile link. WHEN TO USE: for browsing or filtering ('show me SEO agencies in Berlin', 'agencies named X') when the user wants a LIST to explore. Use match_agencies instead when the user describes their project/brief and wants a RECOMMENDATION; use get_agency for full detail on one specific agency.
agency
get_agency
Fetch a single agency's full profile from Pick an Agency by its slug (the last path segment of its profile URL), including description, location, rating, services, website and a few recent client reviews. WHEN TO USE: after search_agencies or match_agencies returned a result the user wants to know more about, or when the user names a specific agency whose slug you already know. Don't guess slugs - find them via search_agencies first.
match
match_agencies
Pick an Agency's matching engine. Given a buyer brief (services needed, location, budget, industry), returns a short ranked shortlist of agencies that best fit - the same logic behind the free 'Get Matched' tool. WHEN TO USE: when the user describes their needs/project and wants a RECOMMENDATION ('I need a social media agency in Paris, ~$5k/month'). Requires at least one service. Use search_agencies instead for open browsing/filtering without a brief; use get_agency to drill into one result afterwards.

Pickanagency — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Pickanagency do?
It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_agency, match_agencies, search_agencies. 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 Pickanagency working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 87 of 91 checks got a reply (95.6%), average response time 274 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Pickanagency?
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 Pickanagency need an API key?
No. Pickanagency 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 Pickanagency?
It answers our handshake in 274 ms on average, which is faster than 50% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Pickanagency open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 2 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.
