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.

    return subprocess.run(llm_cmd(prompt), cwd=str(cwd), env=llm_env(), stdin=subprocess.DEVNULL, **kw)

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.

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

claims
search_claims
Search the claims Context Pill has published (the ledger), with their status at publication, how each was checked, current state (pending, resolved, corrected or closed-inconclusive), the re-check outcome and any correction. Removed items keep only an id, date and reason, so they don't show up in a word search. Use it to see whether a specific tool, model or feature claim has been checked. Call this first when the user asks whether Context Pill has checked a specific tool, model or claim.
latest
get_latest
Return today's checked AI claims (releases, tools, techniques), each with its verification status, source trust score and evidence links. Optionally filter by a topic word such as 'claude', 'codex' or 'open weights'. Call this first when the user asks what's new in AI.
sources
list_sources
List the sources Context Pill reads, with tier, trust score (posterior mean), its conservative lower bound (LB10) and the number of resolved tips. Optionally filter by name. Use it when the user asks how far to trust a source.

Context Pill — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Context Pill do?
It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_latest, list_sources, search_claims. 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 Context Pill 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 160 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Context Pill?
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 Context Pill need an API key?
No. Context Pill completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 3 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Context Pill?
It answers our handshake in 160 ms on average, which is faster than 81% 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 Context Pill open source?
We cannot say either way: written in Python, 0 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
