PoolParty MCP server
Which MCP servers are PoolParty'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.

- Registry nameio.poolparty/main-stage-airtimeverified in the MCP registry
The registry name sits under poolparty.io. 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 166 ms.
- Its tools do every use case we checked: Submit a short media block for stewarded airing; Inspect queue and activity status through the API.
- Checked on 2 of the 7 days it takes to judge reliability.
Once connected
- create_join_session, create_channel_from_template, update_channel_settings, create_program_item, set_programming_bucket change data without a sign-in: anyone with the address can call them.
- Its definitions take about 19457 tokens of context: enable only the tools a task needs.
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: create_join_session, create_channel_from_template, update_channel_settings, create_program_item, set_programming_bucket
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 →

How to connect
Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:
{
"mcpServers": {
"main-stage-airtime": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://www.poolparty.io/api/mcp"
}
}
}Add it
Claude Code, in a terminal
claude mcp add --transport http poolparty https://www.poolparty.io/api/mcpclaude.ai, ChatGPT and other clients: add https://www.poolparty.io/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.
