Is Tangent reliable?

Reliable (measured) Yes. Faceabot measured Tangent 42 times: 100% of checks succeeded, including the last 42 in a row (last check 2026-10-19 20:40 UTC). It also does the job: its real read-only task worked 42 of 42 times.

Last check: 2026-10-19 20:40 UTC · answered in 5902 ms · remote (no install)

En français : Fiable (mesuré). Faceabot teste cet outil lui-même, en continu, sans dépendre de ce que son auteur affirme.

Connect your agent

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tangent": {
      "url": "https://tangent.directory/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Or ask Faceabot first: MCP tool check_reliability {"id":"directory.tangent/tangent"} on https://faceabot.com/api/mcp.

Does it actually do the job?

Does the job (tested) — Faceabot asked list_patterns to do a small read-only task 42 time(s): 42 returned a real result, the last 42 in a row. Last result: ok in 3472 ms.

Sample input: {}. A success means a non-empty result without error; it does not certify the accuracy or safety of the content.

Method: MCP initialize then tools/list from Faceabot (FaceabotProbe/1.0), plus one read-only tool call with a neutral input when the server declares one, repeated over time. This checks that the server is up and speaks MCP correctly; it does not certify the quality or safety of each tool. How measurement works.
