Connect FIPS 140 certificate tracker and your agent gets 6 tools, among them fips_cert, fips_cve, fips_in_process. It answers at https://fips.808bits.com/mcp over streamable HTTP, and it listed its tools to an anonymous client, so no sign-in was needed for that. Our probes reached it 11 of 11 times since 4 September 2026; the last check, on 25 October 2026, succeeded.
Every NIST FIPS 140 certificate, plus the modules-in-process queue NIST publishes only as a page.
Description as the publisher wrote it.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
fips_cert | Look up one FIPS 140 cryptographic module validation by certificate number. Returns status (active, historical or revoked), overall level, sunset date, validation history, approved algorithms and tested configurations. Inputs: number |
fips_cve | Which FIPS-validated modules are associated with a given CVE, or which CVEs are associated with a vendor's modules. Answers 'we have a validated module, is it caught up in this advisory'. The association is name-based against the product CP Inputs: cve, vendor, min_cvss, limit |
fips_in_process | Search NIST's Modules in Process queue: submissions awaiting FIPS 140-3 validation, with the review phase each one is sitting in. Use this when a vendor claims a validation is 'coming' and you need to know whether it has actually been submi Inputs: query, phase, limit |
fips_search | Search FIPS 140 validations by module name or vendor. Use this to answer whether a given product or vendor holds a current validation, and at what level. Inputs: query, status, standard, level, limit |
fips_sunset | List active FIPS validations by sunset date, the day each moves to NIST's historical list and stops being valid for new procurement. Answers 'what expires before date X' and 'which vendors are about to have nothing valid'. A certificate lis Inputs: before, standard, vendor, limit |
fips_vendor | Everything one company holds, grouped across the spelling variants NIST filed it under. Cisco alone appears as three different strings. Returns a breakdown by status and standard plus the certificates themselves. Note this groups spellings Inputs: vendor, limit |

It answered our last check on 25 October 2026 in 233 ms. Over 11 checks since 4 September 2026 it answered 11. Status here comes from Neuronto's own probes, not from the publisher.
Yes. It is published by 808bits.com and served from fips.808bits.com, the vendor's own domain: https://fips.808bits.com/mcp.
6, as returned by the server's own tools/list on 4 September 2026: fips_cert, fips_cve, fips_in_process, fips_search, fips_sunset, fips_vendor.

Put the server under mcpServers in ~/.cursor/mcp.json with the URL https://fips.808bits.com/mcp. The exact JSON is above, with the same setup for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, Gemini CLI and the rest.
It listed its tools to an anonymous client, so reading the tool list needs no key. Individual tools can still ask for credentials in their own inputs.
Publisher: com.808bits. Endpoint host: fips.808bits.com. ARD identifier: urn:air:com.808bits:mcp:fips-cmvp.
First indexed 4 September 2026. The tools are exactly what the server returned; nothing on this page
is inferred from its name. Ranking in Neuronto search is never for sale.
