Available tools 5

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

fetch
fetch
Returns the Markdown document of any public page, exactly as HTTP serves it, from a root-relative path (/patterns/supervisor.md) or a https://topologyindex.com URL. Private tenant routes are not reachable here.
pattern
get_pattern
One pattern page (/patterns/{pattern}.md): definition, aliases, when it is hypothesised to fit, failure modes, sources and whether this deployment can execute it. Accepts a pattern identifier or a known alias.
patterns
list_patterns
The pattern catalogue and decision guide (/patterns/index.md). With a family, only that family’s section of the same page.
search
search
Keyword search over the public pages: pattern names, aliases and summaries, research records, starter formations and API guides. Returns at most 10 results with a path to pass to `fetch`. Matches text only; it never ranks patterns.
starters
list_starters
The starter formation index (/starters/index.md): unvalidated, unsigned FORMATION.md documents to copy and register privately.

Topology Index — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Topology Index do?
It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: fetch, get_pattern, list_patterns, list_starters, search. 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 Topology Index working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 12 of 13 checks got a reply (92.3%), average response time 308 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Topology Index?
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 Topology Index need an API key?
No. Topology Index completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 5 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Topology Index?
It answers our handshake in 308 ms on average, which is faster than 52% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
