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.

scan_textScore a text 0-100 for signs of AI/machine writing, with the band (low/moderate/elevated/high) and the reasons by name, each with the writer's own words behind it where there are some. Set deep=true for the most thorough read (slower…
scan_urlRead the text of a public web page (an https:// address) and score it 0-100 for signs of AI/machine writing, exactly as scan_text does: the score, the band (low/moderate/elevated/high) and the reasons by name. A reason lists the page's…
cleanup_textStrip machine typography from text without rewriting a word: smart quotes, em dashes and the rare glyphs AI models overuse become plain keyboard characters. Returns the cleaned text. It does not rewrite your words and will not make text…

check_ai_imageRead what an image file declares about AI: Content Credentials (C2PA), IPTC source type, creator tool, embedded prompts. Pass image_url (https) or image_base64, not both.Signal, not a verdict: only what the file claims about itself, easy…
How to connect
Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:
{
"mcpServers": {
"scanforai": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://api.scanforai.com/api/mcp"
}
}
}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.
