Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

search_offers — Search ammunition offers
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

Search canonical ammunition products and their current per-retailer offers. Results are descriptive only — prices, availability, $/round, observation time, and provenance, with no verdicts, scores, or recommendations. Use each offer's `outUrl` for outbound links (do not rewrite it). `sort` is a mechanical ordering, never a judgement.

get_product — Get product detail
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

Fetch a single canonical product by its `canonicalProductId`, with current per-retailer offers. Descriptive only. Returns an `error_v1` body with `NOT_FOUND` if the id is unknown.

get_market_snapshot — Get caliber market snapshot
Advertised by the server during the last successful anonymous check.
Advertised read-onlyOpen-world

Caliber-level price distribution (median, p25, p75, min, max) over a rolling window. Purely descriptive statistics with methodology and sample counts; never a forecast or recommendation. Accepts the canonical caliber name or a common alias (for example "5.56" or ".223" for ".223/5.56"); `list_calibers` gives the canonical names. Returns `error_v1` `NOT_FOUND` when no snapshot exists for the caliber/window. When `extremaSuppressedByPolicy` is `true`, `min`, `max` and both `segments.*.min` / `segments.*.max` are `null` BY POLICY rather than for lack of data: that caliber's published extremes are withheld pending revalidation. The median, quartiles, `p95`, segment medians and counts remain valid and complete — `p95` is a percentile over the whole window rather than a single observation, so it is not withheld. Do not infer or substitute a floor for those calibers, and do not treat `p95` as a stand-in for the withheld `max`. This is distinct from `dataStatus: "INSUFFICIENT_DATA"`, which means the sample was too thin to compute anything.

Enumerate every canonical caliber IronScout recognizes, each flagged with whether a current market snapshot exists and its sample count. Calibers without a snapshot are still listed (with `hasSnapshot: false`).

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http ironscout-mcp https://mcp.ironscout.ai/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add ironscout-mcp --url https://mcp.ironscout.ai/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable ironscout-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ironscout-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mcp.ironscout.ai/mcp"

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start ironscout-mcp and inspect its tools.

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http ironscout-mcp https://mcp.ironscout.ai/mcp

Claude Desktop

Open Claude Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector, enter this server URL and enable it for the conversation. This is a manual remote-connector handoff, not a desktop JSON configuration.
Claude Desktop configuration

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
Windsurf configuration
