Available tools 4

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

analysis
get_analysis_status
Check the processing status of an uploaded paper. Poll this tool after uploading a PDF until status is 'Ready' before calling get_variable_relationships. Args: file_id: The file_id returned by the /upload endpoint. authorization: Optional. API key as 'Bearer hk_...' or 'hk_...'. Returns: { "status": "Processing" | "Ready" | "Empty" | "Ineligible" | "Pending", "edges_count": int, "variables_count": int }
device
check_device_auth
Check if the user has completed browser sign-in for a device auth request. Poll this after calling initiate_device_auth. Returns status 'pending' while waiting, or 'complete' with an api_key when the user has signed in. Use the returned api_key as the authorization parameter in other tools. Args: user_code: The user_code returned by initiate_device_auth. Returns: Pending: {"status": "pending"} Complete: {"status": "complete", "api_key": "hk_..."} Error: {"error": "..."}
initiate
initiate_device_auth
Start a browser-based sign-in flow to get an API key for full access. Call this when you need detailed analysis results (reasoning, measurements) that require authentication. Returns a verification URL to show to the user. After the user signs in, poll check_device_auth with the returned user_code to get the API key. Returns: { "verification_url": str, "user_code": str, "expires_in": 600, "message": str }
variable
get_variable_relationships
Retrieve analyzed variable relationships for a completed paper. Only returns results when get_analysis_status reports status='Ready'. Without an API key (anonymous): returns the relationship list with source, target, and direction — but detailed reasoning is available only with an API key. Sign up at https://hypathesis.com to get one. Args: file_id: The file_id returned by the /upload endpoint. authorization: Optional. API key as 'Bearer hk_...' or 'hk_...'. Returns: Authenticated: full details (source, target, directed, reason per relationship; name, measure per variable). Anonymous: gated (source, target, directed per relationship; name per variable; sign_up_url for full access).

Hypathesis — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Hypathesis do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_device_auth, get_analysis_status, get_variable_relationships, initiate_device_auth. 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 Hypathesis 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 402 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Hypathesis?
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 Hypathesis need an API key?
No. Hypathesis completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Hypathesis?
It answers our handshake in 402 ms on average, which is faster than 33% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
