Live health check

What Merlonix observed when it opened a real MCP session with Exa — the transport, protocol generation, authentication posture, and (for open servers) the callable tool inventory.

Server info

Exaanswered but requires a credential (401/403), so Merlonix couldn’t read its tool inventory behind the auth wall. That is normal and healthy for a production server — it means the endpoint is live and gated. Add your token in the live checker for a full behind-the-auth report.

Embed a live health badge

Add a live, self-updating MCP health badge to Exa’s README or docs. It re-checks on load (cached ~10 min) and links back to this page.

Monitor your own MCP server around the clock.

This page is a one-time check. Merlonix is an uptime monitor that speaks MCP — it opens a real handshake on a schedule, alerts you the moment a server goes down or an auth wall appears, and flags silent tool-contract drift that would break the agents calling it.
