MCP server for the @agentutility web-probe cluster — pay-per-call x402 tools, no API keys, USDC on Base.
Enumerate all sites in the Stack Exchange network — name, api_site_parameter, audience, and URL. The api_site_parameter value is what other tools accept as the `site` input (e.g. "stackoverflow", "superuser", "serverfault"). Results are fetched live and optionally filtered by name. Use this tool to discover valid site parameters before calling other stackexchange_* tools.
ArgumentsA call is made on an account: it counts against an allowance and the publisher sees it, which is why this one asks who you are first.
What it does
Search Stack Exchange/Stack Overflow questions and fetch complete Q&A threads as markdown.
Quickstart
# 1 — install (mcprush login holds a key from your dashboard)
npx mcprush@latest add stack-exchange-mcp
# 2 — ask your agent something

Stack Exchange is free: there is no plan to choose, no cap to set and nothing that can bill you.
Collected from a public index. Nobody has claimed this account, so nothing here was written by its author — claim it if it is yours.
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.
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 stack-exchange-mcp https://stackexchange.caseyjhand.com/mcpReconnect, or start a new session, and the tools appear in the model’s tool list.
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.
5 tools, with what each one reads, writes and reaches shown before you agree — the same list on every route above. Read the tool surface.
Tool surface
What the model actually sees. Descriptions are diffed on every release — see version history.
Enumerate all sites in the Stack Exchange network — name, api_site_parameter, audience, and URL. The api_site_parameter value is what other tools accept as the `site` input (e.g. "stackoverflow", "superuser", "serverfault"). Results are fetched live and optionally filtered by name. Use this tool to discover valid site parameters before calling other stackexchange_* tools.
Takes no parameters.
Search questions across a Stack Exchange site. Returns ranked questions with title, score, answer count, accepted status, tags, and excerpt — no bodies at this stage. Results supply question_id values for stackexchange_get_thread, which fetches the full question body and all answers. Use the `site` parameter to target a specific community (e.g. "stackoverflow", "superuser", "unix"); call stackexch
Takes no parameters.
Fetch the highest-voted answered questions for a tag on a Stack Exchange site — the canonical "best answers in X" list. Returns a question list without bodies; use stackexchange_get_thread to read the full body and answers for any result. Use this tool to find the authoritative community resources on a topic (e.g. tag "javascript" on stackoverflow). Use stackexchange_search_questions for free-text
Takes no parameters.
Fetch a Stack Exchange user profile by numeric user ID: reputation, badge counts, top tags by answer score, and account metadata. Useful for credibility context on an answer author — pass the authorUserId from any question or answer in stackexchange_get_thread output. Returns profile fields plus up to 10 top tags by answer score.
Takes no parameters.
Fetch a complete Q&A thread — question body and all answers, accepted answer first then sorted by score, rendered as clean markdown with fenced code blocks. Accepts an integer question ID or a full Stack Exchange question URL (e.g. "https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11227809/why-is-processing-a-sorted-array-faster" or "11227809"). HTML is normalized to markdown automatically; attribution (author

What counts against your monthly calls
| Tool | Unit | Calls used | Out of the allowance |
|---|
Nothing here is billable. Stack Exchange costs nothing to install and nothing to call, at any volume.
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 0.1.10 — 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.
No release note was published with this version.
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.
Writing one takes an account with at least 50 real tool calls against Stack Exchange 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.
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.
