Sparka MCP server
Which MCP servers are Sparka'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.sparka/sparkaverified in the MCP registry
The registry name sits under sparka.io. The registry only lets a publisher use that namespace after proving control of the domain through DNS or HTTP.

- Whether its tools do the product's job has not been judged yet.
- Checked on 2 of the 7 days it takes to judge reliability.
Once connected
- Parameters are untyped or undescribed in 6 of 8 tools: check arguments before calling.
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 →
sparka_account_getReturns the account's plan, limits (participants per session, sessions per month, presentations, concurrent live sessions), usage this period, a `summary` sentence with the same numbers, and `pricing_url`, the public page listing the…
sparka_deck_guideReturns the rules and a reference JavaScript pattern for making an HTML presentation interactive with Sparka: Start/End buttons and their labels, a lobby with the QR code, PIN and join URL that can be opened from any slide, switching the…
sparka_presentation_deletePermanently deletes a presentation and ends its live session if one is running. Results of past sessions stay readable with `sparka_results_get` by `session_id` until their retention ends. Decks using this `presentation_id` stop working…
sparka_presentation_getReturns one presentation: title, settings, questions (with correct answers unless `include_answers` is false), the live session if one is running (PIN, participants), and the most recent sessions. Useful for editing an existing…
sparka_presentation_listLists the account's presentations, newest first, with title, question count, last update and last session time. Useful when the user refers to a presentation without giving its ID ("results from yesterday's talk"). Paginated with `cursor`.
sparka_presentation_saveCreates or fully replaces a presentation's interactive questions in one call. Each call carries the COMPLETE presentation: title, optional settings, and the ordered list of all questions including correct answers for scored types (valid…
sparka_question_types_listLists every interactive question type Sparka supports, with its JSON schema, a short guide on when to use it, and a valid example. `sparka_presentation_save` accepts only these types and fields; unknown fields are rejected. Each question…
sparka_results_getReturns results for a session: per question, the counts or words, the correct answer and how many got it right for scored questions, participant count, and the final leaderboard. Takes `session_id`, or `presentation_id` for its most…
How to connect
Add the server to your MCP client config. Claude Desktop, Cursor and most other clients read this shape:
{
"mcpServers": {
"sparka": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://sparka.io/mcp"
}
}
}Add it
Claude Code, in a terminal
claude mcp add --transport http sparka https://sparka.io/mcpclaude.ai, ChatGPT and other clients: add https://sparka.io/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.
