Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Bonhams every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Bonhams — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Is Bonhams working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 177 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Bonhams?

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 Bonhams need an API key?

No. Bonhams completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Bonhams?

It answers our handshake in 177 ms on average, which is faster than 70% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is Bonhams open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 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.
