Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Runs an external command sino/mcp.php:64
            $logDb->exec("CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS mcp_logs (

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Sino Gateway — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Sino Gateway do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: calculate_china_import_taxes, provision_free_api_key, resolve_china_customs_clearance, sino_data_transfer_compliance. 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 Sino Gateway 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 219 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
Did Sino Gateway ever remove tools?
Yes. resolve_gacc_regulatory_clearance, sino_cietac_clause, sino_customs_valuation, sino_defect_notice and 2 more are no longer exposed — we recorded the date each one disappeared. A tool vanishing usually means a breaking change for anything that depended on it.
How do I connect Sino Gateway?
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 Sino Gateway need an API key?
No. Sino Gateway completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Sino Gateway?
It answers our handshake in 219 ms on average, which is faster than 65% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Sino Gateway open source?
We cannot say either way: written in PHP and 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
