Available tools 5

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

categories

list_categories

Use this to map what the user wants (e.g. car, apartment, plumber, job, dog, event) to a category slug before searching. Returns the category slugs and display names accepted by listing creation and search. Use a returned slug as the category parameter. An empty categories array means no categories are currently configured.

community

community_board_help

Use this when the user just says 'Community Board' or 'community-board', asks what this app can do, or asks for help or examples ('מה אפשר לעשות כאן?', 'עזרה'). Returns a summary, supported capabilities, the live category list, example requests in Hebrew and English, current limitations and search tips.

listing

get_listing

Use this when the user wants more details about a listing returned by a search. Retrieves one listing by its UUID. Active listings are visible to everyone. Draft, sold, closed, or expired listings are returned only to their owner when the local development identity is configured; otherwise they are reported as not found.

listings

search_listings

Use this first whenever the user asks to find, search for, buy or rent something locally (e.g. 'תחפש לי', 'תמצא לי', 'אני מחפש לקנות'): second-hand items, vehicles, apartments, jobs, professionals, pets or events. Searches active Community Board listings. Filter by words in the title or description, category slug, and inclusive minimum or maximum price. Supply both latitude and longitude to calculate distance; also supply radius_km to limit results to that distance. Use distance sorting only with an origin, relevance to put title matches first for a query, or newest for recent listings. An empty results array means no active listings matched the filters.

nearby

search_nearby

Use this when the user asks what is available, sold or happening near a place or near them (e.g. 'מה מוכרים לידי', 'מה קורה לידי', 'איש מקצוע באזור'). If their location is unknown, ask for a city or area first instead of guessing. Finds active listings near a geographic point using PostGIS distance search. Latitude and longitude are separate decimal-degree values; radius_km is required and measured in kilometers. You may narrow by category. Distance ordering is the default. An empty results array means nothing active matched within the radius.

Community Board — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Community Board do?

It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: community_board_help, get_listing, list_categories, search_listings, search_nearby. 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 Community Board 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 206 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

Is Community Board 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 Community Board?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.

Does Community Board need an API key?

No. Community Board 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 Community Board?

It answers our handshake in 206 ms on average, which is faster than 60% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
