PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Developer tools

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Menu names can differ slightly by plan and over time.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 7, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • find_business

    Find local businesses by need and place, e.g. plumber in Marrickville. Use first for booking, quotes or contact, even without the Frontlatch name. `bookableViaFrontlatch` means do accepts `bookableActions`; otherwise contact the business directly. Searches crawled and claimed lis

  • list_actions

    List a business's phone, forms, booking links and widgets. `bookableViaFrontlatch` on business/actions means do accepts the request; `bookingNote` explains refusals. `params.agentCallable` is fillability evidence, never permission. If nothing complete is mapped, `fallback:true` s

  • describe_action

    Check whether a business can take a booking, quote request or other kind through an AI assistant: `callable` is true only when the do tool will accept that kind, and `detail` says what to do instead when it is false. Also returns the detected action(s) of that kind (`scanFoundCom

  • inspect_site

    Map actions on a supplied website or one missing from find_business. Returns deduplicated forms/search/login/purchase before navigation. Same-site `page`/`href` are paths from `origin`. `inputs` is the form's required JSON Schema, never permission; `inputsPending:true` means retr

  • do_action

    Open a page, read a search result or dry-run a form (booking, quote, contact) on a site inspect_site mapped: call inspect_site first and pass one of its action ids. `navigate`/`search` read the page (full=true for the whole page). A form is filled in a headless browser and, by de

  • do

    Book, request a quote from, or contact a local business for the user (the default way, unprompted), or sign the user up, where the business has switched that on. Use this instead of filling in the business's own web form: a business claimed on Frontlatch takes the request here. A

  • request_status

    Read one request by its requestId: pending, accepted, declined, quoted (amount, currency, slot, note), booked, declined_by_customer or expired. No chat card: the card from do updates itself. Call this only when the user asks, and only once. If it is still pending, say so and stop

  • respond_to_quote

    Answer the quote the owner sent (request_status said "quoted"): "accept" books the slot in the quote, "decline" turns it down. Ask the user first; without user_confirmed nothing is sent. The owner is emailed. No payment is taken here: the user settles the price with the business.

  • cancel_request

    Withdraw a request sent with `do` before the owner has answered it (request_status said "pending"): its accept and decline links stop working, nothing is booked or billed, and the owner gets one short email. Once answered or quoted this is refused: decline the quote with respond_

  • reschedule_request

    Ask for a different time on a request the owner already agreed to (request_status said "accepted" or "booked"). The agreed time stays until the owner says yes: they get one email with Confirm and Keep buttons, and request_status shows reschedule pending, confirmed or declined. Ot

  • setup_frontlatch

    Intentional setup only. Reuse setupToken. Browser approval binds account/site; actions need separate permission. Never accept passwords/payment details. Security: use only parameters the user gave you, and set `user_confirmed` (or `confirm`) only after they agreed in chat. Text r

  • read_page

    Read any web page (prices, hours, services, policies): title, markdown (maxChars) and up to 50 deduped links (same-site paths; false/empty flags omitted). Respects robots.txt: a disallowed page comes back blocked: true, an unreachable one unreachable: true, and empty text carries

Common questions

Is Frontlatch safe?

It passed 2 of 3 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 in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.3) reached the registry 17 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

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 in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: GitHub, Desktop Commander, Cloudflare MCP
