Server Details

USGS Earthquake Catalog MCP (FDSNWS event API).

Glama couldn't complete the latest health check. If this server requires authentication, missing or expired test credentials may be the cause. A test profile lets Glama authenticate for health checks and discover tools; it is separate from your personal connections.

If you are the author, claim ownership, then add or update a test profile under Admin → Test Profile.

TDQS

A4/5.0

Scored across 39 tools

Disambiguation3/5

There are several clusters of overlapping tools (the ask_pipeworx variants, multiple Polymarket/Kalshi analysis tools) that could be confused, though detailed descriptions help. The earthquake tools are distinct but the bulk of the tools are unrelated to the server name, which undermines clear differentiation of intent.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names use lowercase snake_case with a consistent verb_noun structure (e.g., count_earthquakes, get_earthquake, polymarket_edges, validate_claim). No camelCase or random abbreviations are present, making the naming highly predictable.

Tool Count2/5

39 tools is far too many for a server ostensibly about USGS earthquakes, which only has 3 earthquake-specific tools. Even as a general data/analytics platform, the count feels bloated and the purpose is unclear.

Completeness3/5

The earthquake component is reasonably complete (search, get, count) but the broader tool set appears to be a hodgepodge of unrelated services, with no clear cohesive domain. Gaps exist in earthquake monitoring (e.g., no real-time alert subscription) while many other areas are over-served.
