FreightUtils MCP server

Connect FreightUtils and your agent gets 25 tools, among them adr_exemption_calculator, adr_lookup, adr_lq_eq_check. It answers at https://www.freightutils.com/api/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 10 of 10 times since 5 September 2026; the last check, on 18 October 2026, succeeded.
