Looktwice tools (6, 1 write)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
cpsc_recall_matchMatch one product against U.S. CPSC recalls and Product Safety Warnings using brand, model, or UPC plus the product title. Returns evidence-backed candidates with official notice links. A result is a screening candidate, not a safety or compliance decision. Costs 3 LookTwice API units.
credits_balanceShow the current LookTwice workspace credit balance.
domain_checkCheck a registrable domain's DNS, MX, TLS certificate, and RDAP registration state. Free within a daily fair-use quota.
email_checkwrite actionValidate an email address: syntax, MX records, disposable-domain, role-account, and free-provider signals. Does not probe the mailbox; mailbox_status is always not_checked. Costs 2 LookTwice API units.
iban_checkValidate an IBAN's country structure, expected length, and MOD-97 checksum, and extract the public bank identifier. Does not verify that the account exists or who owns it. Costs 1 LookTwice API unit.
vat_checkValidate an EU VAT number against the official European Commission VIES service. Returns validity at request time, registered name/address when the member state provides them, and request evidence. Costs 1 LookTwice API unit.

Compared with a single-purpose MCP
Most VAT or email MCP servers wrap one upstream. This server keeps the same evidence rules across email, VIES, IBAN, domain, and CPSC: timestamps, official sources, and no mailbox / account / safety claims.
Honest boundaries
or compliance decisions.
- emailcheck never claims a mailbox exists (mailboxstatus: not_checked).
- iban_check never claims an account exists or belongs to a person.
- cpscrecallmatch returns screening candidates with official sources, not safety, legality,
