numberRank MCP server

Which MCP servers are numberRank'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 namedev.numberrank/numberrankverified in the MCP registry

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

On 2026-10-26 the server answered initialize and tools/list without a sign-in. First answer in 101 ms.

Should an agent connect itConnect it
  • Its tools do every use case we checked: check whether a phone number reads as VoIP or carrier; estimate whether a number will pass SMS verification; look up line type for numbers through an API.

Once connected

  • For "check whether a phone number reads as VoIP or carrier", the likely first call is check_number.
  • For "estimate whether a number will pass SMS verification", the likely first call is check_number.
  • For "look up line type for numbers through an API", the likely first call is check_number.

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 →

  • check_number

    Tells you whether a phone number is VoIP or a real carrier line, with a 0 to 100 score and letter grade, using Twilio Lookup line type intelligence. Use it before relying on a number for SMS or OTP verification. US numbers can be 10…

  • directory

    Returns the numberRank directory: AI agent phone providers and personal agents graded by whether their published and provisioned numbers read as real carrier lines or VoIP. Numbers are masked.

How to connect

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "numberrank": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://numberrank.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add it

Claude Code, in a terminal

claude mcp add --transport http numberrank https://numberrank.dev/mcp

Add to CursorAdd to VS Code

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