Nothing serious here today

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

This endpoint answered with an authorization challenge. The server is running, and it signs you in through your browser: there is no API key to paste.

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.

claimable
create_claimable_cluster
Creates a free-tier cluster (0.5 GB memory, 2 vCPU burst, one node) with no account and no credential, in the region nearest the caller unless one is given. The answer carries a claim_url for the person you are working with and an access_token for polling; when a ready cluster is on hand it also carries the hostname and an api_key, otherwise status is provisioning and next says what to do (poll get_claimable_cluster about every 60 seconds until ready, and tell the user you are waiting). The api_key reads, writes and searches every collection but cannot delete anything or manage keys; it stays valid for 24 hours after the person claims the cluster. The cluster is deleted 72 hours after creation unless a signed-in person opens the claim_url and claims it into their Typesense Cloud account: give them the link; never open it yourself. Limits per address: 2 clusters per hour, 5 per day.
get_claimable_cluster
Pass the cluster_id from the create answer as id. Returns the cluster's status: provisioning (poll again in about 60 seconds), ready (with hostname and api_key, on every call until the person claims), claimed, or expired. Authenticate with the access_token from create_claimable_cluster as a bearer token. Limit: 120 calls per hour per cluster.

Typesense Cloud — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Typesense Cloud do?
It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_claimable_cluster, get_claimable_cluster. 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 Typesense Cloud 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 631 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Typesense Cloud?
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. You sign in through your browser once and the client keeps the session: no key to copy, and it refuses anonymous clients.
How do you sign in to Typesense Cloud?
No API key is involved. Typesense Cloud answers our knock with an OAuth challenge, so you authorise it once in your browser and the client keeps the session. That is also why we see no tool list: it will not describe itself to an anonymous client, and that is the server working as intended, not a fault.
How fast is Typesense Cloud?
It answers our handshake in 631 ms on average, which is faster than 15% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
