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

grading

create_grading_session

Creates a workspace grading session for finished student work, including paper, Google Docs or an AP Classroom export. Accepts a Fiveable FRQ or SAQ id, or the teacher's own question in prompt. A session uses an included assignment when grading starts unless the account has unlimited assignments. Returns the new session id.

get_grading_progress

Returns grading counts (scored, remaining, failed and approved) and background-job status (running, done or stopped). Cheap.

get_grading_results

Class results for a grading session: average, score distribution, how the class did on each rubric part, common gaps, and a table of essays (handle, short name, score, status, what to check). Filter to the ones that need review, drafts, approved or failed. Scores marked AI draft aren't approved yet.

get_grading_rubric

Returns the session's Fiveable scoring guidelines point by point on the AP rubric for its question type. If absent, starts rubric generation and returns pending status; generation takes about a minute. Rubrics use the website's grading pipeline. Cheap once written.

list_grading_sessions

The teacher's grading sessions for work done outside Fiveable (stacks of essays graded in the workspace), newest first, with essay, scored and approved counts. Use to resume a stack. Cheap.

update_grading_rubric

Changes a session's Fiveable question or teacher-provided prompt and AP question type before any essay is scored. Regenerates the rubric using that type's AP rubric and point total. Returns the previous prompt for restoration.

assignment

create_assignment_draft

Builds an assignment draft from multiple-choice questions picked by question-bank mcq: id and/or drawn from units and topics (skipping already assigned questions), Fiveable FRQ or SAQ ids, readings with optional checks, or a diagnostic. Settings start from the first class's defaults. AP Calculus drafts require courseVariant or target classes sharing one course. Returns the draft id and review link. Drafts never use an included assignment slot.

get_assignment

Returns one assignment's sections, question counts, scoring and timing settings, published classes, due dates and student links. Cheap.

get_assignment_question_breakdown

Per-question results for one assignment: percent correct and how many students picked each answer choice (identifying which distractors drew responses), plus FRQ part-by-part full-credit rates. Use it for 'which questions went worst?'. Moderate cost.

get_assignment_status

Where each student is on one assignment: in progress, submitted, scored, or waiting for review, with their score when results are available. Students appear by handle and short name. Use it for 'who hasn't finished?' or 'how did period 5 do?'. Cheap.

update_assignment_draft

Changes a draft's title, instructions, AP Calculus course, classes, dates, settings or sections. Existing section ids identify sections to remove. Published assignments cannot be changed here. Returns an undoId for restoring the previous draft.

confirm

confirm_correct_answer_key

Applies the owner-bound answer-key correction preview identified by previewId and rescores affected attempts in the background, subject to explicit teacher approval. Rejects scores changed since the preview.

confirm_publish_assignment

Publishes exactly the owner-bound preview identified by previewId, subject to explicit teacher approval of that specific preview. Returns each class's student link and a message to post.

confirm_push_grades_to_google_classroom

Exports exactly the grades in the owner-bound previewId, subject to explicit teacher approval of that preview. Rejects session scores changed since the preview.

confirm_release_results

Releases results exactly as specified by the owner-bound previewId, subject to explicit teacher approval of that specific preview. Release cannot be reversed.

confirm_update_publication

Applies the owner-bound publication preview identified by previewId, subject to explicit teacher approval of that specific preview.

prepare

prepare_correct_answer_key

Creates an owner-bound confirmation preview for correcting a published multiple-choice key, including how many students gain or lose points. Accepts assignment section and question numbers. Keys and scores remain unchanged until approved preview execution.

prepare_publish_assignment

Creates an owner-bound confirmation preview for publishing a draft or republishing with new dates: classes, openings, due dates in the teacher's time zone, result visibility and student-facing changes. Publication remains unchanged. Execution requires approval of this specific preview. With no classes, anyoneWithLink must be true for a public link.

prepare_push_grades_to_google_classroom

Creates an owner-bound confirmation preview for exporting approved grading-session scores to the source Google Classroom assignment. Includes included/excluded counts and the point scale. No grades are sent until approved preview execution.

prepare_release_results

Creates an owner-bound confirmation preview for releasing assignment scores and feedback to every class, including counts of unscored responses. Release status remains unchanged until approved preview execution. A release cannot be taken back.

prepare_update_publication

Creates an owner-bound confirmation preview for closing or reopening a published assignment, or changing class open/due dates. Links and submissions remain intact. Publication remains unchanged until approved preview execution.

class

get_class

One class in the teacher's workspace: subject, roster (students by handle and short name), the class's assignment defaults, and the student links of assignments currently open to it. Students join a class by opening one of those links; there are no class codes. Cheap.

get_class_insights

How a class (or all the teacher's classes) is doing on Fiveable assignments: accuracy and FRQ points with change over time, each assignment's turn-in rate and average, and each student's average with flags (missing work, dropping, improving), weakest first. Scope by class, subject, assignment or time window. Moderate cost.

set_class_assignment_defaults

Sets a class's assignment defaults (scoring mode, timer, attempts, result release, notifications) so new assignments for that class start with them. Replaces the previous defaults and returns them for undo.

update_class

Renames a class, changes its subject, or sets an AP Calculus class's course (AB or BC). Returns the previous values for reversal through a subsequent class update.

import

import_essays_from_files

Splits teacher-supplied PDFs or Word stacks into one essay per student, including AP Classroom 'FRQ Response PDFs, By Student Page Break' exports. Photos support one essay per image and are read by Fiveable. Accepts up to three ChatGPT attached uploads of 25 MB each, or up to three base64 files totaling about 3 MB. Returns counts and warnings only. Long PDFs can take up to a minute.

import_essays_from_google_classroom

Adds selected Google Classroom turn-in handles to a grading session. Reads authorized Google Docs directly; optional teacher-provided text supports other files or missing Google access. Names come from the Classroom roster. Existing session submissions are skipped. Records the source Classroom assignment for subsequent approved-grade export. Returns counts only.

import_essays_from_text

Adds individual student responses supplied as pasted, downloaded or transcribed text, with each student's name as written. Photo transcriptions require transcribedFromPhotos and explicit teacherConfirmedTranscription approval of the transcription. Returns counts only.

Among them: add_students, approve_essays, archive_assignment, archive_class, confirm_correct_answer_key, confirm_publish_assignment and 71 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 →

What is Fiveable for AP Teachers mostly used for?

Its tools cluster around grading, prepare and confirm. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.

Is Fiveable for AP Teachers working right now?

We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 2 of 91 checks got a reply (2.2%), average response time 402 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.

How do I connect Fiveable for AP Teachers?

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 Fiveable for AP Teachers need an API key?

No. Fiveable for AP Teachers completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 77 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.

How fast is Fiveable for AP Teachers?

It answers our handshake in 402 ms on average, which is faster than 32% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.

Is Fiveable for AP Teachers open source?

We cannot say either way: 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
