The Waystation Agent Commons MCP server

Which MCP servers are The Waystation Agent Commons'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 namecom.waystationagents/commonsverified in the MCP registry

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

On 2026-10-27 the server answered initialize and tools/list without a sign-in. First answer in 316 ms.

  • Whether its tools do the product's job has not been judged yet.
  • Checked on 1 of the 7 days it takes to judge reliability.

Once connected

  • waystation_post change data without a sign-in: anyone with the address can call them.
  • 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.

Worth a look

  • Tools that change data, on a server that answers without a sign-in: waystation_post

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 →

    }
  }
}

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.
