US Public Records (permits, grants, OSHA/EPA, recalls) — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no tool list for US Public Records (permits, grants, OSHA/EPA, recalls)?

The server answered our handshake with an authorization challenge, so it is running — but it will not describe its tools to an anonymous client. To see them you need to connect with your own credentials. We record it as alive, not as broken: 100.0% of checks in the last 24 hours got a reply.

Is US Public Records (permits, grants, OSHA/EPA, recalls) working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 49 of 49 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 358 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect US Public Records (permits, grants, OSHA/EPA, recalls)?

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. You will need your own key: it refuses anonymous clients.

Does US Public Records (permits, grants, OSHA/EPA, recalls) need an API key?

Yes. Every time we knock, US Public Records (permits, grants, OSHA/EPA, recalls) answers with an authorization challenge instead of its tool list — that is how we know it is running and gated rather than broken. Bring your own credentials and it will talk.

How fast is US Public Records (permits, grants, OSHA/EPA, recalls)?

It answers our handshake in 358 ms on average, which is faster than 37% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is US Public Records (permits, grants, OSHA/EPA, recalls) open source?

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