Available tools 2

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

recall
get_recall
Fetch the full Recall Canary record for a single U.S. federal recall, given the agency and slug returned by search_recalls. Includes the hazard description, the affected product list with lot codes and UPCs, the recommended consumer action, distribution, the agency source link, and the firm slug (`firm.slug`, with `firm.page_url` when the firm has a page) for search_recalls' `firm` filter. Also resolves preliminary agency press releases: an orphan, or a linked one that kept its own URL (its recalls in `linked_recalls`). Read-only.
recalls
search_recalls
Search the Recall Canary index of U.S. federal product recalls (FDA, FSIS, CPSC, NHTSA) by keyword, agency, severity, category, distribution state, hazard, firm, or date window. Returns up to 50 matching records per page with abbreviated content (title, firm, severity, date, and the canonical URL of each); call get_recall to fetch the full record. With a keyword, the best matches come first unless `sort` says otherwise. Unknown agency, severity, category, state and date values are rejected with an error message describing the allowed values. An unknown `hazard` or `firm` is also an error. Read-only.

Recall Canary — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Recall Canary do?
It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_recall, search_recalls. 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 Recall Canary 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 457 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Recall Canary?
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 Recall Canary need an API key?
No. Recall Canary completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Recall Canary?
It answers our handshake in 457 ms on average, which is faster than 27% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
