Nothing serious here today

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

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

species

find_species

get_species

One species of India by its key (from find_species or list_species): sources that list it, open record, states with an open record, WII regions, IUCN category with the year, DOI and trend of the assessment, endemic, year described and authority, family and order, evidence (type specimens, photos, DNA barcodes), names in Indian languages, a photo with its credit, and iNaturalist observations that wait for a name.

list_species

List species of India with optional filters that combine: "critically endangered species in India", "endangered animals in Karnataka", "snakes of the Western Ghats", "birds of Goa recorded since 2020". Rows by group, then Latin name; up to 100 per page, with the total and a cursor for the next page.

count

count_species

How many species of India: documented, with an open record, threatened (IUCN CR, EN, VU), recorded in the last 10 years, endemic, and per IUCN category. All filters are optional and combine: "how many butterflies in India", "threatened birds in Kerala", "endemic frogs of the Western Ghats".

new

new_species

Species described from India since a year (2007 or later), from Plazi, the BSI Plant Discoveries and the ZSI Animal Discoveries: the year, the group, the state of the type locality, the journal and a link to the paper, and whether it has been recorded since. "new species discovered in India 2025", "new frog species from India".

yellide — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can yellide do?

It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: count_species, find_species, get_species, list_species, new_species. 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 yellide working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 27 of 27 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 163 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect yellide?

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 yellide need an API key?

No. yellide 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 yellide?

It answers our handshake in 163 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 yellide open source?

The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in Python and 0 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at yellide.com, which runs on its operator's own terms.
