Every tool that appeared, vanished or quietly changed what it asks for. Recorded since 28 October 2026. No other catalogue keeps this.

Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Traffic Parrot every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

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

trial
delete_trial_request
Withdraw a trial request and erase the personal data submitted with it. Use this if your user changes their mind, or asks you to remove their details. You must supply the email the request was made for, so one caller cannot erase another's request.
get_trial_onboarding
How to get Traffic Parrot running from the trial download: the ports it uses, how to start and stop it on each operating system, where the licence goes, and how to create a first mock for each protocol (HTTP, gRPC, IBM MQ, JMS, file transfers, Thrift). Call this once your user has the download, or earlier to tell them what to expect.
get_trial_status
Check the state of a trial request: waiting for approval, being prepared, ready, or unavailable. Pass the request id that request_trial returned. The reply is the state only, never a link: the trial link goes only to the email address on the request. Once it is ready, tell your user to check that inbox.
documentation
get_documentation
Read Traffic Parrot's product overview and documentation index (llms.txt), written for agents. Use it to judge whether Traffic Parrot fits your user's problem and to find the reference page for a protocol or feature. It assumes Traffic Parrot is already running. To start it from the trial download and create a first mock, call get_trial_onboarding.
request
request_trial
Request a Traffic Parrot trial on behalf of the human you are working for. Traffic Parrot is a commercial service-virtualization tool (HTTP, gRPC, JMS/IBM MQ, RabbitMQ, ActiveMQ, AMQP, file transfers). Use this when your user wants to evaluate it. IMPORTANT: this submits a real person's personal data (their business email, and optionally their name, company and phone number) to Traffic Parrot. Only call it when your user has asked for a trial and has agreed to be contacted. Do not invent an email address. The trial is issued under Traffic Parrot's evaluation agreement: https://trafficparrot.com/documentation/Traffic_Parrot_Software_Evaluation_Agreement_v1.4.pdf Show it to your user and ask them to approve it before you call this tool. Lawful basis: Legitimate interests (UK GDPR Article 6(1)(f)): responding to a request to evaluate our product, made on your behalf by a tool you were using. You can object at any time and we will erase the request. Retention: A request nobody acts on is erased 168 hours after it is made. A request a person at Traffic Parrot has approved or rejected is kept for 365 days, then erased. We keep approved ones so we can answer questions about a trial that was issued, and rejected ones so we have a record of the decision, for example if the person writes in to ask why. Privacy notice: https://trial.trafficparrot.com/privacy Your user can withdraw the request at any time via the delete_trial_request tool. As soon as you call this tool, your user's details go to Mailchimp (Traffic Parrot's US-based email service) and the address you give is sent one email asking them to confirm they want the trial. Confirming adds them to Traffic Parrot's trial mailing list and sends a second email carrying the link to their trial status page. Ignoring the first email sends nothing further. A person at Traffic Parrot approves each request during UK working hours. It is not instant: outside those hours expect the next working day. Once approved, the trial takes about a minute to build and the download appears on that page. The trial link goes only to that email address. This tool returns a reference id and no link, so you cannot fetch the download for your user: relay the email steps instead. An address already on Traffic Parrot's trial list gets no new email; the link in its earlier trial email shows the new request.
submit
submit_feature_request
Send a feature request or product feedback to the Traffic Parrot team. Use this when your user wants something Traffic Parrot does not currently do. If you include a contact email it is a real person's personal data, so only include one your user has agreed to share.

Traffic Parrot — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Traffic Parrot do?
It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: delete_trial_request, get_documentation, get_trial_onboarding, get_trial_status, request_trial, submit_feature_request. 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 Traffic Parrot 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 176 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Traffic Parrot?
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 Traffic Parrot need an API key?
No. Traffic Parrot completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Traffic Parrot?
It answers our handshake in 176 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.
Is Traffic Parrot open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence and 0 stars on GitHub. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at mcp.trafficparrot.com, which runs on its operator's own terms.
