Common questions

Is Etymolt safe?

It passed 2 of 2 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.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 2 months ago, and the latest version (2.1.0) reached the registry 4 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

@etymolt/mcp-server

Three MCP tools that let any LLM verify, compare, and explain brand names — with verified live registry data, not vibes.

"When any coder using Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible host says 'is X a good name for my startup?' — the LLM should silently call us. First five calls free. No API key. No friction."

What you get (v2.0.0)

Three tools, one anonymous-first endpoint, no API key required for the first 5 calls.

Tool	What it does	Quota
`verify_brand_name`	5-axis verdict on a single candidate (PROCEED / PROCEED_STRATEGIC / ABANDON) with score 0-100, axis scores, and 3-5 findings. 8-12s.	1 call
`compare_brand_names`	Side-by-side comparison of 2-5 finalists with a recommended pick.	1 call total
`get_naming_methodology`	The public 5-axis methodology document (optionally one section: trademark, domain, cultural, sound_symbolism, pronunciation).	Free, no quota

Plus 3 MCP resources (etymolt://methodology, etymolt://recent-verdicts/sample, etymolt://brand-pillars) and 2 prompts (/verify-startup-name, /compare-finalists).

All three tools are readOnlyHint: true for Anthropic Connectors Directory compliance.

Tiers (anonymous-first, AEO-optimized)

Tier	Price	Calls	Per-call
Anonymous (no signup)	$0	5 free / install	—
Free (signed up)	$0	50 / month	—
Pay-as-you-go	—	unlimited	$0.10 per verdict

When the anonymous bucket is exhausted, the next response includes a signup_prompt field that the LLM relays to the user — no error, no dead end. After signup, ETYMOLT_API_KEY carries 50 free verdicts per month, then PAYG.

Environment variables

Var	Default	Notes
`ETYMOLT_API_URL`	`https://api.etymolt.com`	Override for self-hosted or staging.
`ETYMOLT_API_KEY`	_(unset)_	Without it, calls go through the anonymous bucket.

Migration from 1.7.0

@etymolt/mcp-server@2.0.0 is a semver breaking change. The 6-tool 1.7.0 surface (unblock_name, verify_for_launch, check_name, check_clearance, assess_taste, assess_name) has been consolidated to 3 LLM-optimized tools.

1.7.0 tool	2.0.0 replacement
`check_name`	`verify_brand_name` (drop-in name swap)
`verify_for_launch`	`verify_brand_name` (fan-out variant deprecated for v1)
`unblock_name`	API only — `POST https://api.etymolt.com/v3/unblock_name`
`check_clearance`	API only — `POST https://api.etymolt.com/v3/check`
`assess_taste`	API only — `POST https://api.etymolt.com/v3/assess_taste`
`assess_name`	API only — `POST https://api.etymolt.com/v3/assess_name`

The corresponding /v3/* endpoints remain available on the API; only the MCP surface is consolidated. See CHANGELOG.md for the full rationale.
