What the code does

We read the source, 3 d ago · tools taken from the live server · rules 995398eba69f

A tool parameter reaches a dangerous call

A value the model can set ends up inside a file or shell call. That is not a flaw by itself — for a terminal server it is the job — but it is where things go wrong when it is not.

A tool parameter reaches a file or shell call barevalue_estimate.api_key → test-mcp.js:323, barevalue_updates.api_key → test-mcp.js:380, barevalue_submit_url.api_key → test-mcp.js:380 и ещё 2
    fs.writeFileSync(file, bytes);

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

A tool parameter here reaches a dangerous call

That is not a flaw by itself — but it is where things go wrong when it is not the job. We re-read this code on every release. Watch it and you hear from us the day another one appears.

Available tools 14

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

barevalue
barevalue_account
Account details: the editing minutes left in the free monthly allowance, credit balance and any limits on the account.
barevalue_api_status
Service health, queue depth and expected processing times. No API key needed.
barevalue_content
The show notes, the full transcript with speaker labels and the edit summary of an edited podcast episode, as text, with no file to download and parse. Available once barevalue_status reports "done". The include parameter limits the answer to the parts named; the transcript of a long episode is large.
barevalue_estimate
Reports what an AI podcast edit of a given length would use from the account and whether the account can cover it, before any order is placed. Nothing is charged.
barevalue_feedback
Records the user's rating of a finished order, positive or negative, with an optional comment and list of issues. Our team is told. A second rating for the same order replaces the first, comment included.
barevalue_list_orders
Recent orders on the account with their status.
barevalue_pricing
What AI podcast editing costs and what it includes: the free monthly allowance, plans, supported audio formats, languages, length limits and features. No API key needed.
barevalue_register
Creates a Barevalue account and returns a working API key in one call, with no password and no email click before the first order. The email is the address of the person the account is for, and that person receives a verification link. Until the link is clicked the account has a small free allowance ("allowance" in the result), and after it the full free monthly allowance. The returned api_key is what the other tools take as api_key. An address that already has an account gets no second key here (registration_failed): its owner makes one at barevalue.com, Settings, API Keys.
barevalue_request_revision
Re-edits a finished order with new instructions, for example "keep the story about the dog, it was cut" or "the intro music is too loud". It creates a new order from the original recording and returns its order_id. The progress and result of that order are reported by barevalue_status. It uses the same minutes from the allowance as the original order. Every revision is made from the original recording, so one request carries everything that is to be different. It returns the edited audio. The show notes and clips are made again only when the instructions ask for them.
barevalue_status
Status of a podcast editing order. While processing it reports the current step, percentage and estimated seconds remaining. When status is "done" it lists each file with its kind (edited_audio, clip, show_notes, transcript and others) and a download URL valid for 24 hours, says what the edit changed, and says what is not included and why. When status is "failed" it gives the reason and what can be done next.
barevalue_submit_url
Edits a podcast episode or interview recording with AI and returns the finished audio. The edit removes background noise, hum and hiss, trims filler words such as um and uh, cuts long pauses and dead air, evens out the levels of the speakers and masters the loudness to -16 LUFS. Cuts or other changes can be asked for in special_instructions. Every order includes a transcript with speaker labels, and an episode of 10 minutes or more also gets show notes and short highlight clips for social media. It takes a recording in MP3, WAV, M4A, FLAC, AAC, OGG, WMA or AIFF, in any of 58 languages, and delivers MP3 at up to 320 kbps, with a WAV as well when the original is lossless. Audio only, one file with one audio track, up to 60 minutes. It edits the recording itself and creates no audio with AI: no translation or dubbing, no synthetic voices, no generated music or sound effects, no video. Free within the monthly allowance of the account. Returns an order_id. The order's progress and result are reported by barevalue_status. A file with no link is ordered with the upload_id that barevalue_upload returns, in place of file_url.
barevalue_updates
Everything that happened on the account since a given moment: an order was received, is ready, or failed and why, or the email address was confirmed. It carries what our emails say, so the user can follow an order without watching an inbox. The result includes a cursor, and a call that gives it back as since starts where this one ended. Without since it covers the last 24 hours. Each update has an id that never changes, so the same update can be recognised if it comes back on two consecutive calls.
barevalue_upload
For a recording that is a file on the machine the agent runs on and has no link. Returns an upload_id and a ready curl command that sends the file from that machine (storage answers 204 when the upload worked). The upload_id is then accepted by barevalue_submit_url in place of file_url. One audio file, up to 750 MB and 60 minutes. The upload link works for 15 minutes and an upload can be ordered once. A recording that already has a direct link needs no upload: barevalue_submit_url takes the link itself.
barevalue_validate
Pre-checks a podcast or other audio recording at a URL without ordering an edit: confirms the link downloads, measures the length and checks that the file is speech and not music or silence. Nothing is charged.

Barevalue — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Barevalue do?
It exposes 14 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: barevalue_account, barevalue_api_status, barevalue_content, barevalue_estimate, barevalue_feedback, barevalue_list_orders and 8 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 →
Is Barevalue 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 498 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Barevalue?
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 Barevalue need an API key?
No. Barevalue completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 14 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Barevalue?
It answers our handshake in 498 ms on average, which is faster than 24% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use Barevalue?
The npm package barevalue-mcp was installed 74 times in the last week. Week over week that is +0%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Barevalue open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 3 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at barevalue.com, which runs on its operator's own terms.
