Netcafe China tools (11)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsbazi_chartFree八字排盘 from birth date and hour: four pillars (年月日时柱), five-element counts, 纳音, zodiac. Uses true solar-term boundaries.
china_reachabilityFreeFetch a URL from a real mainland-China network egress and report HTTP status, latency and China DNS resolution. Answers "is my site/API usable from China?" with a measurement instead of a guess — you cannot get this from a VPS abroad.
cn_holidayFreeIs a date a Chinese public holiday, weekend, or 调休 make-up workday? Plus the next holiday.
huangliFreeChinese almanac for a date: 宜 (auspicious activities), 忌 (avoid), 冲煞, 彭祖百忌. date omitted = today.
id_card_checkFree中国大陆身份证号校验:check digit validity, birth date, age, gender, region code. id = 18-digit ID number.
lunar_calendarFreeChinese lunar calendar for any date: 农历、干支纪年、生肖、节气、节日、星座。date omitted = today.
phone_infoFree中国大陆手机号识别:validity, carrier (移动/联通/电信/虚拟运营商), formatted forms. phone = 11-digit number.
pick_lucky_daysFreeFind auspicious days in a month for an event: 结婚/领证/搬家/开业/装修/出行/签约/订婚/安床/安葬 or any 黄历宜 term.
pinyin_convertFreeConvert Chinese text to pinyin: with or without tones, first letters only, or as a slug. text = Chinese text.
reachability_reportFree一批 URL 的中国大陆可达性体检 → PDF 报告:逐个的可达结论、延迟、HTTP 状态与大陆 DNS 解析到的 IP。探测从真实的中国移动骨干网节点发出,不是境外 VPS 推断。入参 urls(数组或逗号分隔,最多 20 个)。自证不通过不计费。
what_can_you_doFreeDescribe a task in plain language (any language) and get back exactly which tools on this server do it, with ready-to-run example calls — instead of reading the whole catalogue and guessing. Also returns multi-step recipes when a task needs several tools chained (invoices to a ledger, a bank statement reconciled, a messy CSV turned into a deliverable). Deterministic and free: it calls no model, costs nothing, and never runs out of quota. Call this FIRST when you are not sure what this server offers.

What the publisher says
From the Netcafe China repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
ai-netcafe
Hosted tools your agent can call over MCP — and a claim you can check in one command:
curl "https://ainetcafe.com/t/china_reachability?url=https://github.com"{
"url": "https://github.com",
"tested_from": "mainland China (China Mobile backbone)",
"verdict": "unreachable: timeout (common signature of blocking or a very slow route)"
}That request was answered by a machine actually sitting on a Chinese backbone network. A monitor hosted anywhere else can only tell you GitHub is up where it is — which is not the question you were asking. That is the kind of thing we host: capabilities that are hard to get, rather than wrappers around ones that aren't.
Four focused servers
One agent profile rarely needs both spreadsheet cleanup and the Chinese lunar calendar, and every tool description costs tokens on every session. So the catalogue is served as four focused MCP endpoints — connect the one you need and pay the context cost of nothing else.
All four are in the official MCP registry as com.ainetcafe/netcafe-tables, -devkit, -docflow and -china.
Nothing in these four calls a language model or a third-party API. They compute on our own servers, so results are deterministic and repeatable — and they cannot break because someone else changed their API.
Numbers come with their own proof
Anything involving counts or money returns an arithmetic check computed in code, not asserted by a model:
// reconcile_ledger: your books vs the bank statement
{
"total_a": 105.30, "total_b": 106.80, "gap": -1.50,
"only_in_a": [{ "key": "B", "amount": 5.00 }],
"only_in_b": [{ "key": "C", "amount": 7.00 }],
"mismatched": [{ "key": "A3", "a": 100.00, "b": 99.50, "diff": 0.50 }],
"arithmetic_check": {
"formula": "A 105.3 − B 106.8 = -1.5; differences explain -1.5",
"checks_out": true
}
}If checks_out is false, the response says the result is untrustworthy instead of handing back a table that looks finished. Amounts are compared in integer cents, so 0.1 + 0.2 never invents a difference for someone to go chase.
