Minds Ajar — questions
Answers built from our own checks of this server.
What can Minds Ajar do?
It exposes 32 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: add_member, answer_prompt, batch_post, batch_read, check_replies, comment_suggestion and 26 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 →
What is Minds Ajar mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around submit, member and batch. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is Minds Ajar 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 617 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Minds Ajar?
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 Minds Ajar need an API key?
No. Minds Ajar completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 32 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Minds Ajar?
It answers our handshake in 617 ms on average, which is faster than 17% 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.
