ASE Academy MCP server
Which MCP servers are ASE Academy's own, from the official registry and from asking its own domain, whether they answer, and what they offer. A program checked each of these, nobody copied them from a product page.

- Registry nameacademy.ase/periodic-systemverified in the MCP registry
The registry name sits under ase.academy. The registry only lets a publisher use that namespace after proving control of the domain through DNS or HTTP.

On 2026-10-28 the server answered initialize and tools/list without a sign-in. First answer in 182 ms.
- Whether its tools do the product's job has not been judged yet.
- Checked on 6 of the 7 days it takes to judge reliability.
Once connected
- Parameters are untyped or undescribed in 3 of 4 tools: check arguments before calling.
Said by rules from the measurements above. The likely first call is a model's pick from the tool list; read its description before relying on it.

What an agent can do with it
- not sure · refactor their own code using tests as daily practice
- not sure · write maintainable code that still works in two years
- not sure · improve code reviews and pair programming within their team
Each of the product's use cases, put to Jev against this server's tool list: can an agent do it with these tools?
Worth a look
None of the five warning signs in these definitions.
A program checks the server once a day: initialize and tools/list, no model. Tokens are the definitions' length at about four characters a token. The grade averages six checks of every tool's name, description, schema and annotations; it says how well the tools are described, not whether they work. The score weighs what was measured and nothing else: answering (25%), doing the product's job (25%), definitions (20%), context (10%), use (10%) and how readily a client connects (10%). A part that was not measured is left out, and a hidden instruction caps the score at 40. The state of vendors' MCP servers: method and numbers →
overviewThe Agentic Engineering Periodic System: what it is, how to read it (rows, columns, judging and reading rules), the roles. Call this first.
find_elementsFind elements of the table by words in their name, problem or test, by role (dev, lead, plat, qa, ...), by group (security, verification, ...) or by row (task, change, system, organisation). Returns one line per element.
get_elementOne element in full: problem, observable test with its clauses and evidence kinds, when it applies, when it adds work without helping, activities, relations, page link. By ID (ae-006), symbol (Sx) or name.
repository_checklistWhat a repository can show for each test, clause by clause, what it cannot, and the judging rules. Use it to check the current project; read the files yourself. Optional: element IDs, a role or a group to narrow it.
How to connect
Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:
{
"mcpServers": {
"periodic-system": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://ase.academy/mcp"
}
}
}Add it
Claude Code, in a terminal
claude mcp add --transport http ase https://ase.academy/mcpclaude.ai, ChatGPT and other clients: add https://ase.academy/mcp as a custom connector in the settings.
Each line is something a program found when it went looking: the registry entry, the server's own answer, a spec that parses. A missing line means we did not find it, not that it does not exist.
