Nothing serious here today

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

Fresh cache hint — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Fresh cache hint do?

It exposes 31 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: agent-ads-index, agent-tool-index, browser-url-ok, cache-fresh, calc-eval, citation and 25 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 →

What is Fresh cache hint mostly used for?

Its tools cluster around agent and status. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.

Is Fresh cache hint 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 177 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Fresh cache hint?

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 Fresh cache hint need an API key?

No. Fresh cache hint completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 31 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Fresh cache hint?

It answers our handshake in 177 ms on average, which is faster than 83% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is Fresh cache hint open source?

We cannot say either way: 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
