Defectbird MCP server

Which MCP servers are Defectbird'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.defectbird/siteverified in the MCP registry

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

On 2026-10-21 the server answered initialize and tools/list without a sign-in. First answer in 950 ms.

Should an agent connect itSkip it
  • Its tools do none of the product's use cases we checked: Walk a multi-point checklist and price the red and yellow findings; Keep each signed inspection against its vehicle, with photos; Track declined advisories so they resurface at the next visit.

Once connected

  • Parameters are untyped or undescribed in 5 of 7 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.

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 →

  • dataset_columns

    The columns, which of them are numeric, the row count and the provenance banner of the Defectbird dataset. Call this first to learn the schema.

  • dataset_search

    Rows of the Defectbird dataset whose cells contain the query (case-insensitive), up to 50.

  • dataset_row

    The rows of the Defectbird dataset where a column equals a value exactly (case-insensitive).

  • dataset_compare

    The rows of the Defectbird dataset whose column is any of the given values, in the order given — for "X vs Y" questions.

  • dataset_stats

    count, min, max, mean, median and sum of a numeric column of the Defectbird dataset (grouping commas and currency are handled; non-numeric rows are excluded and counted).

  • dataset_top

    The highest (or lowest) rows of the Defectbird dataset by a numeric column — "which is the most/least X".

  • dataset_provenance

    The source, the date it was computed, the licence and the citation for the Defectbird dataset. Read this to attribute a figure correctly.

How to connect

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "site": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://defectbird.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add it

Claude Code, in a terminal

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

Add to CursorAdd to VS Code

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