Every server in the gate directory has to pass the same four checks before your AI can touch it. Here's how Car Repair Cost Estimator holds up.
Operated by Car Repair Cost Estimator (carrepaircostestimator.com) at its documented MCP endpoint — not a third-party mirror or community re-host.
This server only exposes public data — no account and no credentials are involved when you connect.
gate checks every tool for prompt injection, hidden instructions, data-exfiltration hints, and over-broad permissions before the server is available through your gateway.
If Car Repair Cost Estimator adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.
Add one gateway URL to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client. One-time setup, about two minutes.
Choose Car Repair Cost Estimator in the gate directory. No sign-in needed.
Car Repair Cost Estimator's tools are live in every AI client you've connected — with rules and logging built in.
