Dealer Direct Inventory missed 3 checks this week

Everything else answered, so this is steady rather than shaky. We check every 15 minutes, which is how a one-off gets told apart from the start of a pattern, and how you hear about the next one within the hour instead of from your users.

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

accept
accept_deal_and_reveal
Once the buyer approves a dealership's verified Out-The-Door quote, unlock the buyer's real name, email/phone, and preferred appointment window to the dealership. Requires explicit buyer permission (consent=true).
burn
burn_proxy_thread
One-click privacy kill-switch: permanently closes a shielded deal thread and revokes its proxy relay email address so any subsequent BDC drip emails or follow-ups from that dealership are silently dropped.
deal
get_deal_thread
Inspect the current state of a shielded proxy deal thread, including physical lot verification answers, itemized Out-The-Door (OTD) quote, hidden add-on/markup warnings, filtered BDC auto-responder count vs. substantive human manager replies, Buyer Shield Pass status, 6-Digit Release Voucher state, and recommended next action.

list_dealers
List all indexed dealerships, classic & collector showrooms, and live enthusiast auction platforms across all 50 US states, their physical locations, website platforms, provenance, last crawl timestamps, live available New, Used, and Classic inventory counts, and price ranges.

Supports natural free-text query (e.g., '427 4-speed', 'Coyote restomod', 'Slant Nose', 'numbers-matching'), classic_only, era ('pre_war', '1950s', '1960s', '1970s', '1980s', '1990s_radwood', 'modern_classic'), listing_type ('dealer_showroom' vs 'auction'), no_reserve_only, manual_only, origin ('american', 'european', 'german', 'italian', 'british', 'japanese'), build_style ('restomod', 'pro_touring', 'concours', 'survivor', 'original', 'restored', 'custom', 'driver'), numbers_matching, year_min/year_max (1900-2028), price_max (up to $10M), and zip + radius_miles (up to 3500 miles).

start
start_shielded_inquiry
Open a privacy-shielded, buyer-directed AI relay thread ('Verified Buyer #XXXX via DealerDirect AI Relay') with a dealership WITHOUT exposing the buyer's personal email or phone number. Operates as 50-state self-serve software where the buyer is sole principal ($0.00 deal/reveal/broker fee, $0.00 dealer fee forever). Sends an ADF/XML + plain-text checklist, a 15-second human Deal-Desk link, and a machine-to-machine JSON endpoint for Dealership AI Agents, and optionally runs a bounded multi-round Agent Auto-Negotiation Playbook.

submit_lead
Submit a buyer inquiry/lead directly to a participating dealership for a specific vehicle or general inventory inquiry. Requires explicit buyer consent (consent=true) and at least one contact method (buyer_email or buyer_phone). Returns a lead_id and delivery status.

Dealer Direct Inventory — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Dealer Direct Inventory do?
It exposes 10 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: accept_deal_and_reveal, burn_proxy_thread, get_deal_thread, get_lead_status, get_vehicle, list_dealers and 4 more. 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 Dealer Direct Inventory working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 90 of 91 checks got a reply (98.9%), average response time 203 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Dealer Direct Inventory?
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 Dealer Direct Inventory need an API key?
No. Dealer Direct Inventory completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 10 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Dealer Direct Inventory?
It answers our handshake in 203 ms on average, which is faster than 67% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
