Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

    files = sorted(subprocess.run(["git", "-C", str(REPO), "ls-files", ".ledger"],
        path = os.path.join(out_dir, f"{safe}.json")
Touches key and credential files secret_patterns.py:22
    r"(^|/)id_rsa$",

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Vend API Merchant — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Vend API Merchant do?
It exposes 13 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: browser_agent, browser_agent_batch, check_link, check_url_status, domain_info, extract_url 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 →
What is Vend API Merchant mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around browser and scrape. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is Vend API Merchant working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 92 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 8000 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Vend API Merchant 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 Vend API Merchant?
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 Vend API Merchant need an API key?
No. Vend API Merchant 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.
Is Vend API Merchant open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python, 0 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at extract.paypercall.dev, which runs on its operator's own terms.
