What the code does

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.

Builds a file path from a variable api/_areas.js:131
  const src = fs.readFileSync(path.join(dir, file), 'utf8');

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.

Databutler Jp Living Costs — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Databutler Jp Living Costs do?
It exposes 1 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: jp_living_costs_lookup. 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 Databutler Jp Living Costs working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 110 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Databutler Jp Living Costs?
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 credentials: it refuses anonymous clients.
Does Databutler Jp Living Costs need an API key?
Yes. Every time we knock, Databutler Jp Living Costs 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 Databutler Jp Living Costs?
It answers our handshake in 110 ms on average, which is faster than 90% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Databutler Jp Living Costs open source?
We cannot say either way: written in JavaScript, 0 stars on GitHub and 24 open issues, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
