xyz.crossgrain/epitaxy is a remote MCP server published at drugs.crossgrain.xyz. It has been probed 13 times since 9/12/2026. It answered in 13 of them (100.0%), a near-uninterrupted record. Median response time is 1,616 ms, a delay an agent will notice. It offers a narrow, focused set of 5 tools. On the protocol side it still runs 2025-11-25 and has not moved to the newer spec.
Can an LLM agent pick the right tool here — names, descriptions and parameter clarity are assessed.

tools/list structure, inputSchema validity, and a functional smoke test — the components of the 0-100 score.
Tools the server advertised in the latest measurement — measured, not catalog-claimed.
get_data_freshnessReturns when the data was last activated, how many segments are live, and the state of the last run. Call this first when you need to know whether the data is fresh.
list_drug_shortagesCurrent and resolved US drug shortages as reported by the FDA. Each row carries the generic name, the reporting company and its company_id. Filters: status, generic_name, company_id, limit.
statusstringgeneric_namestringcompany_idstringlimitintegerlist_drug_recallsFDA drug recalls and enforcement reports. Filters: classification (Class I, II, III), company_id, limit.
classificationstringcompany_idstringlimitintegerlist_federal_drug_contractsUS federal contracts for drugs, product service code 6505, from USAspending. Filters: agency, company_id, limit.
agencystringcompany_idstringlimitintegerget_supplier_exposureThe join: a federal contract whose supplier has an FDA shortage or recall. Every row carries company_name, confidence (exact, probable or weak) and match_method. A cross source join is NEVER exact, because FDA and USAspending share no identifier. The claim is: this government supplier has an active FDA shortage or recall. It does NOT claim that this contract delivers that drug. Without a key you get exact and probable matches only, at most 20 rows, without the evidence field.
award_idstringcompany_idstringmin_confidencestringlimitintegerEach block is one measurement round. Green: working response. Amber: responded but the server was returning errors (5xx). Red: no response at all.
Each cell is one probe run. Faded cells are incomplete probes — one leg did not answer, so the era is inconclusive.
The two probe legs separately: modern server/discover and legacy initialize.
Derived by comparing consecutive probes — changes in era, protocol version, build and reachability.
