Shipshape Data does not always answer

Over the last week it answered 99.7% of our checks. We check every 15 minutes, so you hear about the next outage within the hour — not from your users.

Shipshape Data — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Shipshape Data do?

It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_ai_readiness_questions, get_case_studies, get_contact_info, list_services, score_ai_readiness, search_resources. 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 Shipshape Data 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 232 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Shipshape Data?

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 Shipshape Data need an API key?

No. Shipshape Data completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Shipshape Data?

It answers our handshake in 232 ms on average, which is faster than 67% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is Shipshape Data open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
