Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Is this number safe to call or text right now? Live carrier, CNAM, spam and SMS checks for agents.

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: Computer or cloud
  • Transport: stdio, Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Chat & email
  • You need to fill in: VRI_API_KEY, Authorization

Install

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

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • You fill in yourself: VRI_API_KEY, Authorization

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • Runs in the cloudNothing to install; it connects over the internet
  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Or run it on your computer

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lookup": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "veriroute-intel-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "VRI_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http lookup https://verirouteintel.com/api/mcp --header 'Authorization: your-value'

Or run it on your computer

claude mcp add lookup --env VRI_API_KEY=your-value -- npx -y veriroute-intel-mcp

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lookup": {
      "url": "https://verirouteintel.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or run it on your computer

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lookup": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "veriroute-intel-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "VRI_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "lookup": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://verirouteintel.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or run it on your computer

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "lookup": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "veriroute-intel-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "VRI_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

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

Values you fill in

  • VRI_API_KEY secret env
    Your VeriRoute Intel API key (free sandbox test keys work). Optional for discovery; required for tool calls.
  • Authorization secret required HTTP header
    Bearer . Get one at https://verirouteintel.com/dashboard/api-keys — free sandbox test keys return sample data with no charges.

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

Common questions

Is Lookup safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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?

You need to fill in: VRI_API_KEY, Authorization

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

Either way works: install it on your computer or connect to the cloud version.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.2.3) reached the registry 2 months 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: Vexa, emailmd, MCP WhatsApp Cloud

VeriRoute Intel MCP Server

Tells your agent whether a number is safe to call or text right now. Live reads of the U.S. and Canadian phone networks — carrier of record, line type, LRN, CNAM caller ID, spam/scam reputation, SMS deliverability, and a TCPA 8 a.m.–9 p.m. calling-window verdict — plus bulk lookups. Every query gets a fresh dip, never stale cached data. Free sandbox key, no card required. Pay per lookup with no minimums.

This is a hosted (remote) MCP server — nothing to install or run.

  • Endpoint: https://verirouteintel.com/api/mcp (Streamable HTTP, JSON-RPC 2.0)
  • Auth: Authorization: Bearer
  • Docs: https://verirouteintel.com/api-docs/mcp
  • Get a key: https://verirouteintel.com/dashboard/api-keys — free sandbox test keys return deterministic sample data with zero charges, perfect for wiring an agent up before funding.

Connect

Claude Code (CLI)
claude mcp add --transport http vri https://verirouteintel.com/api/mcp \

--header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"

Claude.ai / Claude Desktop

Add a custom connector with URL https://verirouteintel.com/api/mcp and header Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY.

Cursor and other MCP clients (mcp.json)
{

"mcpServers": { "vri": { "url": "https://verirouteintel.com/api/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" } } } }

Tools

ToolWhat it does
vri_number_lookupLive intelligence for one number: carrier, line type, LRN routing, porting date; optional CNAM, spam reputation, messaging provider
vri_spam_checkSpam / scam / robocall reputation for one number
vri_sms_deliverabilityOne verdict for outreach agents: can this number receive SMS, and is now a reasonable time to send? Line type, VoIP flag, spam reputation, and the recipient's approximate local time with an 8am–9pm calling-window flag
vri_bulk_lookupUp to 100 numbers in one call
vri_submit_jobSubmit an async bulk job (up to 10,000 numbers); balance reserved up front
vri_bulk_statusProgress of one of your bulk jobs

Billing

Live keys pay the same per-lookup rates as the REST API from a prepaid balance. Every result reports what it cost; failed lookups are never charged, and a call that would exceed your available balance is refused up front.

Use cases

  • Clean calling lists before dialing (dead/ported/VoIP detection)
  • Check your own outbound caller IDs for "Spam Likely" labeling
  • Verify line type before sending SMS
  • Enrich CRM records with live carrier data — from inside an agent workflow

Directories

Published in the Official MCP Registry as com.verirouteintel/lookup · Smithery · MCP.so

Local stdio (CI, offline, or clients without remote MCP)

A zero-dependency Node shim, published to npm, forwards to the hosted server:

VRI_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY npx veriroute-intel-mcp

Or in an mcp.json-style client config:

{

"mcpServers": { "vri": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "veriroute-intel-mcp"], "env": { "VRI_API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY" } } } }

Discovery works without a key; tool calls need one (free sandbox test keys return sample data with zero charges). Prefer the hosted endpoint whenever your client supports remote MCP.
