## MCP tools (2)

### `nc_dmv_wait_times` (~301 tokens)

Live wait times at North Carolina DMV offices, published by NCDMV itself and refreshed continuously: the current average wait in minutes, the longest wait anyone in line is seeing, and whether each office is open right now. Covers all 148 NCDMV driver license offices statewide plus the vehicle services and license plate agency units, so it answers "how long is the wait at the Raleigh DMV", "is the Charlotte DMV open right now", "which DMV near Greensboro has the shortest line", or "shortest DMV wait in North Carolina today". North Carolina is one of only two states whose DMV publishes a live queue feed. Outside posted business hours the agency reports every office closed with a zero wait, which is an idle queue rather than a measurement, and the response says so.

Input parameters:

- `limit` (number|string): Max offices to return (default 200, max 400).
- `office` (string): Case-insensitive office-name substring, e.g. "Raleigh", "Charlotte", "Wilmington".
- `open_only` (boolean|string): When true, keep only offices the feed currently reports as open.
- `service` (string): "driver" for driver license offices (default, 148 offices) or "vehicle" for vehicle services / license plate agency units.
- `sort` (string): "wait" ranks shortest average wait first (open offices first); "name" (default) keeps the agency's own order.

### `nc_dmv_offices` (~277 tokens)

Find North Carolina DMV driver license offices and license plate agencies with street address, city, ZIP, phone number and posted opening hours. NCDMV publishes no other machine-readable office directory, so this is the office locator for the state: it answers "DMV offices in Raleigh", "address and hours of the Durham DMV", "phone number for the Asheville driver license office", or "license plate agency near Charlotte". Search by office name, city or ZIP. Each office also carries its NCDMV district. For the live queue at these same offices use nc_dmv_wait_times.

Input parameters:

- `city` (string): City name, matched as a substring, e.g. "Durham", "Winston-Salem".
- `district` (string): NCDMV district name substring, e.g. "District 5".
- `limit` (number|string): Max offices to return (default 200, max 400).
- `office` (string): Case-insensitive office-name substring, e.g. "Raleigh", "Cary".
- `service` (string): "driver" for driver license offices (default) or "vehicle" for vehicle services / license plate agency units.
- `zip` (string): Five-digit ZIP code, e.g. "27604". A prefix such as "276" also matches.

## Common questions

### What is the Nc Dmv MCP server?

Nc Dmv is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.pipeworx-io/nc-dmv. North Carolina DMV MCP, live wait times at every NCDMV driver license office and license plate… This page covers its npm package (@pipeworx/mcp-nc-dmv).

### Is the Nc Dmv MCP server safe to use?

Nc Dmv scores 81 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 5 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. 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 Nc Dmv MCP server expose?

Nc Dmv exposes 2 tools: nc_dmv_wait_times, nc_dmv_offices. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 578 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

### Is the Nc Dmv MCP server still maintained?

Nc Dmv 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.

### What licence is the Nc Dmv MCP server under?

Nc Dmv declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.

### What did VerifyMCP test on the Nc Dmv MCP server?

VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on Nc Dmv, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
