Installation
Where are you running it?
Every route below installs the same thing and ends at the same approval screen. Nothing here runs on your machine — this server runs on the publisher’s own infrastructure behind our gateway, and what you install is the connection to it.
Claude Codedeclared by this listing
This is a public server: you run it yourself and this marketplace is not in the path. Claude Code registers it in one command.
claude mcp add --transport http patent-gap-mcp https://patentgap.dropwatchhq.com/mcpReconnect, or start a new session, and the tools appear in the model’s tool list.
Free to install, and it runs from its publisher’s own package: no account, no key, no card.
What it writes
One config entry pointing at the gateway. The server itself runs on the publisher’s own infrastructure, so nothing from this listing executes on your machine.
What you approve
4 tools, with what each one reads, writes and reaches shown before you agree — the same list on every route above. Read the tool surface.

List the private-label product categories Patent-Gap tracks for expiring design patents.
Takes no parameters.
Example callreturns →
Cross-category feed of design patents that just became (or are about to become) free to make — i.e. fresh off-patent private-label opportunities, soonest-expiry first, already recall- and supplier-screened.
Takes no parameters.
Example callreturns →
Screen ONE US patent by publication number (e.g. USD689332S1): compute its statutory expiry/status, join CPSC recall-safety for its category, and run an OFAC/OIG screen on the assignee. Returns the freedom-to-operate read (design-patent scope; not legal advice).
Takes no parameters.
Example callreturns →
PAID (x402, $0.03 USDC on Base). Full off-patent opportunity report for a category slug (see list_categories): every newly-expirable design patent with computed expiry, CPSC recall-safety band, and OFAC/OIG supplier screen, ranked by actionability. Free callers get a preview + x402 challenge.
Takes no parameters.

—Grade not published
No rule-by-rule report on file for this release
Two independent axes, because powerful and malicious are different questions. The grade is threat only. The capability level is blast radius, and it is never a penalty on the grade — it is priced as one subtract-only term in the score, where you can see it.
This listing is a hosted endpoint: the publisher runs it and we connect to it. The scanner reads packages and source, and neither exists to read here, so there is no grade — not a withheld one, an unmeasured one. What can be checked instead is on Installation: what it asks to reach and what it writes.
Release history
Pinned to 1.0.0 — the install command below asks for that release. A pin is part of an install, so it is kept for this visit and written down when you install.

Only accounts with at least 50 real tool calls against this server in the last 90 days can post. Ratings are weighted by how much the reviewer actually uses it, and publishers can reply once per review.
Reviews are earned
Writing one takes an account with at least 50 real tool calls against Patent Gap in the last 90 days. That is the whole gate — there is no other way to post, which is why the counts beside each review are worth reading.
No reviews yet
Nobody has reviewed this listing. The rating on the card is the mean of the reviews written here and nothing else, so there is no rating until somebody writes the first — which takes an account with 50 real tool calls against it.
