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 →
search_factsSearch checked facts about getting a family ready for illness or death: Medicare permission forms, Social Security, hospital stays, unclaimed money, and more. Each result has the official source, the date checked, and a guide link.
get_formLook up an official form by code (for example CMS-10106) and get what it does in plain words, the official link, and our step-by-step guide.
readiness_checklistThe Family Readiness Standard: 25 checks a family should be able to pass if someone gets sick or dies, grouped by area.
list_guidesList the free guides and tools on planbeforeyoudie.app with their short answers.
after_death_deadlinesReturn the same sourced dates and conditional review checkpoints as the public calendar. It does not establish who can act or select a form.
state_rulesReturn the complete published state row, conditions and source passages, each with its official source and the date it was checked. Topics: death_certificates (death certificates), small_estate (small estate limits), estate_tax (estate…
inherited_ira_ruleUse the existing sourced calculator. Returns review conditions and timing. Dollar amounts require an optional prior December 31 balance. It does not choose a spouse option or an election.
agency_permissionsReturn the published agency routes with forms, conditions, incapacity and death limits. The situation selects a reading focus and never grants authority.
How to connect
Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:
{
"mcpServers": {
"facts": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://planbeforeyoudie.app/mcp"
}
}
}Add it
Claude Code, in a terminal
claude mcp add --transport http planbeforeyoudie https://planbeforeyoudie.app/mcpclaude.ai, ChatGPT and other clients: add https://planbeforeyoudie.app/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.
