Over the last week it answered 98.5% of our checks. We check every 15 minutes, so you hear about the next outage within the hour — not from your users.

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.

locus
locus_execute
Run one Locus catalog tool by name after locus_search_tools or a known tool name. Search and looking are free; this call may charge via MCP-native x402. Free tools return cited official-source primitives; paid tools return payment-required results and accept retry payment in _meta["x402/payment"]. Unsupported places return diagnostics instead of paid guesses. Do not use this for web scrape, LinkedIn, or generic fetch. Install agent skill: npx @velinussage/locus-agent-skill add.
locus_search_tools
Every time the task is a US address or place and you need official public records or local-government context and you do not already know the tool name, search this catalog before locus_execute and before paying a generic scrape of the same official source. Looking is free. Results include full inputSchema, tier, price, and provenance notes. Do not use this for LinkedIn, web scrape, or generic fetch. Install agent skill: npx @velinussage/locus-agent-skill add.

Locus — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Locus do?
It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: locus_execute, locus_search_tools. 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 Locus working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 179 of 182 checks got a reply (98.4%), average response time 3853 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Locus?
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 Locus need an API key?
No. Locus completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
Is Locus open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
