Cert Made Easy MCP server

Which MCP servers are Cert Made Easy'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.

Whose server it is
  • Registry namecom.certmadeeasy/exam-practiceverified in the MCP registry

The registry name sits under certmadeeasy.com. The registry only lets a publisher use that namespace after proving control of the domain through DNS or HTTP.

Should an agent connect itNot proven either way yet
  • Its tools do practise exam-style questions with an explanation for every answer, but not ask follow-up questions to a tutor beside each question.
  • Checked on 3 of the 7 days it takes to judge reliability.

Once connected

  • Parameters are untyped or undescribed in 6 of 6 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.

  • not sure · sit timed mock exams matching the real question count
  • cannot · ask follow-up questions to a tutor beside each question

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 →

    Find certification exams by official code (e.g. "SAA-C03", "CIPP/E"), name (e.g. "Azure Administrator") or topic (e.g. "GDPR"). Returns the matching practice sets with their size, free questions and price.

  • list_exams

    Without a vendor, list the certification vendors covered and how many exams each has. With a vendor (a name such as "Microsoft Azure" or a code such as "aws", "iapp", "isc2"), list that vendor's exams.

  • get_exam_details

    Describe one exam: the vendor's real exam (official code, question count, fee, domains and their weights) and our practice set for it (size, free questions, price, timed mock exam). `exam` is a set_id from search_exams or an official exam…

  • get_study_paths

    Recommended exam order for each career role at one vendor (e.g. "aws", "Microsoft Azure"), from first exam to last.

  • get_practice_questions

    Return up to five free sample questions for an exam, each with its correct option letters and a written explanation. Show the question and options, let the user answer, and only then reveal the answer and the explanation.

  • check_answer

    Check the user's answer to a question from get_practice_questions. `selected` is the option letters the user chose, e.g. ["B"] or ["A", "D"]. Returns whether it is right, the correct letters and the explanation.

How to connect

Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "exam-practice": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://certmadeeasy.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add it

Claude Code, in a terminal

claude mcp add --transport http certmadeeasy https://certmadeeasy.com/mcp

Add to CursorAdd to VS Code

claude.ai, ChatGPT and other clients: add https://certmadeeasy.com/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.
