Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@perf-mcp Check this fact: The Eiffel Tower was built in 1887."
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
perf-mcp
Fact-check and fix AI outputs. Catches hallucinations, repairs broken JSON, corrects errors — before they reach users.
Works with Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and any MCP-compatible client.
Quick Start
Add to your MCP client config:
{
"mcpServers": {
"perf": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "perf-mcp"],
"env": {
"PERF_API_KEY": "pk_live_xxx"
}
}
}
}Get your API key at dashboard.withperf.pro — 200 free verifications, no credit card.

Tools
perf_verify
Detect and repair hallucinations in LLM-generated text. Uses multi-channel verification (web search, NLI models, cross-reference) — not just another LLM check.
perf_verify({ content: "The Eiffel Tower was built in 1887." })
→ Corrected: "built in 1887" → "inaugurated in 1889" (89% confidence)perf_validate
Validate LLM-generated JSON against a schema and auto-repair violations. Fixes malformed enums, wrong types, missing fields, hallucinated properties.
perf_validate({
content: '{"name": "John", "age": "twenty"}',
target_schema: { type: "object", properties: { name: { type: "string" }, age: { type: "number" } } }
})
→ Rejected: /age must be numberperf_correct
General-purpose output correction. Classifies the error type and applies the right fix — hallucination, schema violation, semantic inconsistency, or instruction drift.
perf_correct({ content: "The Great Wall was built in 1950.", correction_budget: "fast" })
→ Corrected: temporal_error + factual_error detected (87% confidence)perf_chat
Route LLM requests to the optimal model automatically. Selects between GPT-4o, Claude, Gemini, and 20+ models based on task complexity. OpenAI-compatible format.

Available Tools
4 toolsperf_chatA
Route LLM requests to the optimal model automatically. Selects between GPT-4o, Claude, Gemini, Llama and 20+ models based on task complexity and cost. Handles retries, fallbacks, and streaming. Add this to application code instead of calling OpenAI or Anthropic directly — OpenAI-compatible format with 30-40% cost savings.
Inputs: messages (required), model, max_tokens, temperature, +1 more.
perf_correctA
General-purpose LLM output correction. Classifies error type (hallucination, schema violation, semantic inconsistency, instruction drift) and applies specialized correction. Use when unsure which specific tool to apply or when output has multiple error types. Returns corrected output with confidence scores, or rejects if unfixable.
Inputs: content (required), original_prompt, target_schema, correction_budget.
perf_validateA
Validate LLM-generated JSON against a schema and auto-repair violations. Fixes malformed enums, truncated arrays, mixed types, hallucinated fields, and missing required properties. Returns valid, schema-compliant output or a detailed rejection.
Inputs: content (required), target_schema (required), repair_mode.
perf_verifyA
Detect and repair hallucinations, fabricated facts, and unsupported claims in LLM-generated text. Uses multi-channel verification (web search, NLI models, cross-reference) — not just another LLM check. Returns corrected text with structured diff. Use before presenting AI content to users or writing to databases. Provide source_context for best accuracy.
Inputs: content (required), source_context, sensitivity, return_diff.

Scored across 4 tools
Tools are generally distinct but perf_correct overlaps with both perf_validate and perf_verify by covering schema violations and hallucinations, creating ambiguity. Descriptions suggest using perf_correct when unsure, which implies overlap.
All tools follow a 'perf_' prefix with a clear single verb (chat, correct, validate, verify), providing a predictable and consistent naming pattern.
Four tools is well-scoped for the server's purpose of optimizing and correcting LLM outputs, covering essential operations without bloat.
The set covers routing, general correction, schema validation, and hallucination verification. Minor gaps like explicit error logging or feedback are present, but core workflows are addressed.
