Data Pad MCP server

Which MCP servers are Data Pad'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 nametools.datapad/math-boardverified in the MCP registry

The registry name sits under datapad.tools. 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 486 ms.

  • Its tools do none of the product's use cases we checked: Repair broken JSON or XML and convert it; Split, merge and edit PDF files.

Once connected

  • publish_board, add_to_board change data without a sign-in: anyone with the address can call them.

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.

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

  • Tools that change data, on a server that answers without a sign-in: publish_board, add_to_board

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 →

  • get_board_format

    Returns the Math Board text format with a complete example. Read it before writing a board, unless you already have it.

  • check_board

    Checks a board text without publishing it. Returns what the board understood, page by page, and every problem with its line and how to fix it. Fix every ERROR, then call check_board again. When there are no errors, call publish_board.

  • publish_board

    Publishes a board and returns a link that opens it in the user's browser. Call check_board first. A board with errors is not published: the problems come back instead. Give the link to the user exactly as returned.

  • read_board

    Reads the board behind a Math Board link the user gave you and returns it as board text, in the same format you write. Ink, images, widgets and the audio of narration cannot be written as text and are listed as left out (narration text is…

  • add_to_board

    Adds board text to the board the teacher has open, behind a live link (.../live/<id>). place "current_page": put it under what is on the page the teacher is on (write ONE page: the next step, a hint, a drawing). place "new_pages": add…

How to connect

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "math-board": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mathboard.datapad.tools/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add it

Claude Code, in a terminal

claude mcp add --transport http datapad https://mathboard.datapad.tools/api/mcp

Add to CursorAdd to VS Code

claude.ai, ChatGPT and other clients: add https://mathboard.datapad.tools/api/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.
