Available tools 2

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

fishbone
check_fishbone
Use this when the user wants their fishbone or cause and effect list reviewed before drawing, for example "check my fishbone causes for duplicates" or "how many pages will this Ishikawa diagram need". Takes the same problem and categories as make_fishbone. Returns counts per category, empty categories, duplicate causes (ignoring case), each text over its limit, other input problems, and the PDF pages needed on Letter, A4 and Tabloid. Draws nothing and makes no files. Does not judge whether a cause is a real root cause.
make
make_fishbone
Use this when the user wants a fishbone, Ishikawa or cause and effect diagram drawn for a problem, for example "make a fishbone for late deliveries" or "6M fishbone template for high scrap rate". Takes the problem (the effect), 2 to 8 categories with up to 10 causes each and up to 5 sub-causes per cause, and a landscape PDF page size. With no categories it uses the 6M set and says so. Returns counts per category, a layout check (overlapping labels, labels crossed by a bone), the PDF page count and smallest text size, an outline, an interactive diagram, and PDF, SVG, CSV and text downloads. Refuses text over the limits with the item named. Does not find, rank or verify root causes. Download links of large diagrams expire after about 1 hour.

Zovo Fishbone — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Zovo Fishbone do?
It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_fishbone, make_fishbone. 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 Zovo Fishbone 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 356 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Zovo Fishbone?
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 Zovo Fishbone need an API key?
No. Zovo Fishbone completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Zovo Fishbone?
It answers our handshake in 356 ms on average, which is faster than 36% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
