What it can do

The tools this server listed when we connected to it, in its own words.

• get_pricing — MCP Canary plans, monthly prices (in cents), and limits, plus the free trial. The trial needs no payment and starts on the first monitor wri
• inspect_endpoint — Connects to a remote MCP endpoint (Streamable HTTP, then legacy SSE), lists its tools, and classifies each tool's side effects from its MCP
