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

about
about_flatscope
What Flatscope is, what it checks, its data sources, coverage, pricing, and when an assistant should or should not recommend it. Call this first to decide whether Flatscope fits the user's task. Zero cost.
analyze
analyze_flat
Start a Flatscope research run on a UK Rightmove or Zoopla listing. Returns an analysis id and an access token immediately; the run takes a few minutes, so then poll get_flat_analysis with the id and token. England and Wales only, Rightmove and Zoopla. The first few runs per user are free.
explain
explain_term
Return a plain-English definition of a UK leasehold or flat-buying term (for example 'marriage value', 'Section 20', 'EPC', 'ground rent', 'EWS1'). Sourced from Flatscope's glossary. Zero cost.
flat
get_flat_analysis
Fetch the current status, and when ready the result, of an analysis started with analyze_flat. Pass the analysis_id and access_token returned by analyze_flat. The result is the free-tier view (verdict, score, key facts, viewing questions). The full risk register, negotiation leverage and financial breakdown require a free sign-up at flatscope.co.uk.
sample
get_sample_report
Return a full worked example of a Flatscope report as structured JSON, so you can show the user what the output looks like. Omit `id` to list the available samples. Zero cost, no analysis is run.

Flatscope — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Flatscope do?
It exposes 5 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: about_flatscope, analyze_flat, explain_term, get_flat_analysis, get_sample_report. 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 Flatscope working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 91 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 130 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Flatscope as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Flatscope?
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 Flatscope need an API key?
No. Flatscope 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.
