• Whether its tools do the product's job has not been judged yet.
• Checked on 4 of the 7 days it takes to judge reliability.

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.

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 →

• search_manufacturer

  Resolve a company name to a Meridian manufacturer entity — the entry point for every other tool. Names are unified across spelling variants and scripts, so "Medtronic", "Медтроник" and "美敦力" reach the same entity, and subsidiaries resolve…

• get_registrations

  Every individual registration held by a manufacturer — product name, registration number, status, dates, risk class and source registry — filterable by market and status. Each row also carries an `enrichment` block Meridian derived…

• get_registration

  One registration, complete. Everything get_registrations returns for that row, plus the registry's own market-specific fields under `registryFields` — Korea's renewal window, Australia's intended purpose, Saudi's authorisation pathway…

• get_license_holders

  The local entities that actually hold a foreign manufacturer's registrations — the importers, distributors and regulatory consultants named on the licence in each market. In Malaysia, Indonesia and Thailand the registry names this local…

• find_distributors

  RUNS WITHOUT AN API KEY (anonymous callers see the top 3 per market and are told how many more matched). WHO COULD SELL A DEVICE IN A MARKET — the question a company entering a market actually has. Give it a market and, optionally, a…

• get_market_coverage

  THE cross-market question, answered in one call: every market where this manufacturer IS registered and every market where they are NOT. Returns per-market registration and active-registration counts and the source registries, plus the…

• get_registration_timeline

  New registrations per year for a manufacturer, split by market — the pace at which a company is entering markets and launching products, years before it appears in reported revenue. Built from each registry's own approval date, so it…

• find_predicates

  US 510(k) predicate lineage, from the predicates actually cited in each clearance's own summary document — not a similarity guess. 64,567 clearances, 1992-2026. By k_number: what that device cited, AND which later devices cited IT as a…

• classify_device

  RUNS WITHOUT AN API KEY (anonymous callers see the top 3 FDA product codes and the full per-market risk table — a free key unlocks the rest). Classification view of a device type: the GMDN hierarchy it sits in, the FDA product codes it…

• find_similar_devices

  Competing and comparable devices for a registration, matched on resolved device type (GMDN) rather than product-name text, and spread across markets so the answer is not all one country. Excludes the same manufacturer, so what comes back…

• get_recent_registrations

  Registrations newly added to Meridian in the last N days, optionally filtered by market, risk class or device type — the competitor-monitoring feed. Ordered by when we first saw the record, so it surfaces market entries as they appear…

• get_coverage

  RUNS WITHOUT AN API KEY — call it right now to check us before signing up for anything. What Meridian Trace actually holds: every source registry, the market it covers, how many registrations are on file from it, and when it was last…

  Tell Meridian that a record you got from this server looks WRONG — a registration, a manufacturer or a licence holder whose field disagrees with the official registry or the company's own documents. Name the record (registration_id from…

• check_issue

  Where a report you filed with report_data_issue stands — Received, Looking into it, Fixed, Not changing or Already reported (with the reference it repeats) — and Meridian's reply, if any. Only the API key that filed a report (or another…
