Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.
It passed 4 of 4 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.
The GitHub repo last changed 9 days ago, and the latest version (1.0.1) reached the registry 9 days ago.
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT on the web (full MCP on Business and above; Pro read-only).

CertArc is independent practice for the CISM, CISSP, CISA, AAISM and AAIA exams. This remote MCP server lets an AI assistant give a learner free CertArc practice questions. With the learner's sign-in, it also gives read-only access to their own CertArc study.
This repository holds no server code. It documents the hosted server and its MCP Registry entry (server.json).

check_practice_answer | After the learner chooses, returns whether the answer is correct, the correct option and CertArc's explanation for every option |

The learner signs in to CertArc in their browser, with Google or a one-time code sent by email. The assistant never sees or enters the code. Assistants never create accounts.
Account sign-in currently works from ChatGPT, Claude and Grok. In Grok, add https://certarc.com/mcp/grok/account as a custom connector. In other MCP clients only the free tools are available.
