Unverified: 6 categories

Categories scored 0 because we could not verify them: authentication we do not have, an unreachable endpoint, or not enough scan history. We only credit what we can confirm. Claim this server and supply a read-only token to verify it and lift the score.

Diagnostics

Diagnostic detail from the automated scan of this channel: what the scanner observed at each step, so you can see exactly where a check passed or failed. It is informational only and never changes the trust score.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

uk_mot_reliability ~159

Real UK MOT failure data for a used car: per-category failure rates (overall and interpolated at a given mileage) and the riskiest components with typical failure mileages, for one model generation. Live proxy to whatbreaks.uk (same operator; aggregated from DfT anonymised MOT results). Use when a user is buying, comparing or maintaining a car sold in the UK. If several generations match, the result lists candidates — retry with year or the exact model name.

uk_recalls_for_model ~233

Official UK vehicle safety recalls (DVSA, Open Government Licence; 4876 recalls launched 2016-01-01 → 2027-02-03, 272 makes) for a make and model: recall number, launch date, concern, defect and remedy text (DVSA's English originals), build-date range, vehicles affected and a GOV.UK recall-checker link. Omitting model lists the make's recalls and model names. "Vauxhall Corsa", "vauxhall corsa" and "VAUXHALL CORSA" resolve identically; "Mercedes-Benz", "VW" and "Land Rover" are understood. Covers cars, vans, HGVs, buses, motorcycles, trailers and components, not individual VINs.

Install

How do I install the io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles MCP server?

io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles is a hosted endpoint at https://databutler.dev/api/mcp/vehicles, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

Common questions

What is the io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles MCP server?

io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles. UK MOT failure data and official UK, French, Japanese and EU vehicle recalls. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://databutler.dev/api/mcp/vehicles).

Is the io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles MCP server safe to use?

io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles scores 33 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles MCP server expose?

io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles exposes 9 tools: uk_mot_reliability, uk_mot_vehicle_search, uk_recalls_for_model, uk_recalls_search, fr_recalls_for_model, and 4 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,188 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles MCP server require authentication?

Yes. io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles asked us for credentials when we connected, so you will need to authorise it in your MCP client before it can do anything.

Is the io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles MCP server still maintained?

io.github.physics-star-cat/databutler-vehicles is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 5 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
