Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Package points at a different repository shagarwal/databazaar-mcp

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

This endpoint answered with an authorization challenge. The server is running, and it signs you in through your browser: there is no API key to paste.

This server publishes 1 more address. The block above uses the one we reach during checks; the full list is under Endpoints below, and the author may intend a particular one for your client.

Available tools 3

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

dataset
get_dataset
Get full metadata for a specific dataset — schema, column counts, quality score, price anchoring, and a forwardable purchase pitch. Includes a checkout_url for one-click human purchase and a human_pitch field for operator messaging.
datasets
search_datasets
Search the DataBazaar marketplace for datasets matching a natural-language query, with optional filters for category, price, quality score, and pricing type. Returns ranked listings with prices, quality scores, and checkout URLs. When results are empty, log_data_gap can post a bounty to signal demand to sellers.
preview
preview_sample
Preview sample rows of a dataset to verify it contains the expected columns, format, and quality. Returns a signed download URL for ~50 rows plus the schema. Pass an optional question to get a synthesized answer from the sample (e.g. "average price in 2024") — no purchase required.

Databazaar — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Databazaar do?
It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_dataset, preview_sample, search_datasets. 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 Databazaar working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 182 of 182 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 408 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Databazaar?
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. You sign in through your browser once and the client keeps the session: no key to copy, and it refuses anonymous clients.
How do you sign in to Databazaar?
No API key is involved. Databazaar answers our knock with an OAuth challenge, so you authorise it once in your browser and the client keeps the session. That is also why we see no tool list: it will not describe itself to an anonymous client, and that is the server working as intended, not a fault.
How fast is Databazaar?
It answers our handshake in 408 ms on average, which is faster than 32% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use Databazaar?
The npm package databazaar-mcp was installed 99 times in the last week. Week over week that is -71%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Databazaar open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 0 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at api.databazaar.io, which runs on its operator's own terms.
