Available tools 9

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

account
get_account
FREE: your SibFly credit balance, price per report, reports remaining, and top-up URL.
ask
ask_inspector
FREE follow-up Q&A with the SibFly Inspector about a report you ALREADY BOUGHT (buy via check_ground_motion first). Ask what the numbers mean for foundations, staleness, seasonal swings, etc. It answers only from the report's numbers (never invents), and won't give buy/walk-away advice. Per-account message allowance applies.
buy
buy_credits
Get a machine-usable payment link to top up credits (requires your Bearer API key). method 'stripe' returns a card checkout_url; 'crypto' returns a BTC invoice_url + txn_id. Open/relay the URL to complete payment; credits land automatically afterwards — confirm with get_account.
coverage
get_coverage
FREE pre-flight: is a US address/point covered, how stale is the data (data_age_days), and what a report would cost. Accepts ONE address/lat+lon, OR addresses[] (up to 1000, needs your Bearer key) to size a whole job before spending. Call this before spending.
ground
check_ground_motion
Measured ground motion (sinking/uplift) for a US address or lat/lon, in mm/year AND in/year, from NASA OPERA Sentinel-1 InSAR. Costs $0.40 from your SibFly credits; out-of-coverage / too-stale / too-low-confidence / fuzzy-geocode return FREE. Use the gate params to avoid paying for data you'd reject. dry_run=true is a FREE coverage+cost preview.
motion
get_motion_history
Multi-year cumulative motion history for an address. Pass from_date and to_date (YYYY-MM-DD) to get the movement between two dates. Costs $0.40 (misses free). dry_run=true is a FREE preview (points + dates + cost, no data); max_age_days returns free instead of billing for stale data.
portfolio
check_portfolio
Batch ground-motion for many US addresses in one call. Only covered addresses are billed ($0.40 each); misses and duplicate cells are free. If credits run out mid-batch the response status is 'insufficient_credits' and unbilled items are marked — top up (buy_credits) and retry them.
register
register_agent
FREE: create a new SibFly account and get an API key + free starter credits in ONE call — no human, no captcha, no card. Use this when you have no API key. SAVE the returned api_key and pass it as the Bearer token on later calls (MCP clients: set it as the Authorization header).
usage
get_usage
FREE: your recent billed calls (line-item ledger with request_id, endpoint, address, cost) so you can reconcile spend against reports.

Ground Motion — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Ground Motion do?
It exposes 9 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: ask_inspector, buy_credits, check_ground_motion, check_portfolio, get_account, get_coverage and 3 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 →
Is Ground Motion 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 458 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Ground Motion?
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 Ground Motion need an API key?
No. Ground Motion completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 9 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Ground Motion?
It answers our handshake in 458 ms on average, which is faster than 27% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Ground Motion open source?
Yes — 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.
