Mara Briefing Service — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Mara Briefing Service do?
It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: fulfill_briefing, get_briefing, list_queue, request_briefing, service_card. 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 Mara Briefing Service working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 89 of 92 checks got a reply (96.7%), average response time 299 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Is Mara Briefing Service still maintained?
The linked repository no longer exists on GitHub — it was deleted or made private. We show this because it changes what you can expect: an unmaintained server may keep answering for months and then stop without warning.
How do I connect Mara Briefing Service?
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 Mara Briefing Service need an API key?
No. Mara Briefing Service completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Mara Briefing Service?
It answers our handshake in 299 ms on average, which is faster than 47% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
