73 developer utility APIs as MCP tools — one key, one server.

What This Does

This MCP server exposes 192 tools from 73 VanMoose APIs to any MCP-compatible AI agent (Claude, GPT, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.).

One API key. One server. Screenshot capture, email validation, NLP, WHOIS, tech stack detection, PDF generation, and 66 more — all callable as native tools.
