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.

make
make_teams
Use this when the user wants a random team generator: split a list of names into random teams or groups by number of teams or by team size, for a class, a game, a workshop, or a sports session. Team sizes differ by at most 1. Optional rules keep certain pairs apart or groups together. Returns each team's members. Does not balance by skill or rating (assignment is random), and is not for scheduling or seating charts. For fun, classroom, and team decisions only; not for lotteries, gambling, or prize draws that have legal requirements.
pick
pick_random_number
Use this when the user wants a random number generator or number wheel: pick one or more random whole numbers between a min and a max (inclusive), with or without repeats, e.g. a random student number or who goes next. Uses cryptographic, unbiased randomness. Do not use for lottery or Powerball numbers, betting, or login credentials and security codes. For fun, classroom, and team decisions only; not for lotteries, gambling, or prize draws that have legal requirements.
spin
spin_wheel
Use this when the user wants to spin the wheel, use a wheel spinner or random name picker, pick a random name or option from a list (wheel spinner with names, yes or no wheel, food wheel, custom wheel), or call on people one at a time. Draws 1 or more different winners with cryptographic, unbiased randomness and shows an animated wheel that lands on the winner. Repeated entries (matched ignoring case) or weights give bigger slices. Returns the winners, each entry's chance, and the remaining entries when remove_winners is true. For fun, classroom, and team decisions only; not for lotteries, gambling, or prize draws that have legal requirements. Does not store results between calls.

Zovo Name Wheel — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Zovo Name Wheel do?
It exposes 3 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: make_teams, pick_random_number, spin_wheel. 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 Name Wheel 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 189 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Zovo Name Wheel?
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 Name Wheel need an API key?
No. Zovo Name Wheel 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 Zovo Name Wheel?
It answers our handshake in 189 ms on average, which is faster than 76% 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.
