XposedOrNot launches free AI-accessible data breach lookup via MCP

The creator of XposedOrNot, a free data breach index, has developed an MCP (Machine Communication Protocol) endpoint to allow AI assistants to query breach information without requiring API keys or local installations. This new endpoint, accessible via a simple URL, enables AI models like Claude Code and tools such as Cursor and VS Code to integrate breach checking capabilities directly. The system is designed to be stateless, provide clear error messages to the AI, and intentionally omits tools that could expose sensitive data like passwords or personal addresses, while offering a free tier with usage limits. AI

IMPACT Enables AI assistants to directly query breach data, potentially improving user security awareness and tool integration.

RANK_REASON A tool/service release that integrates with AI assistants, not a core AI model release.

    My AI assistant kept guessing about data breaches. So I gave it one free URL (MCP, no API key)

    <p>Ask an AI assistant if your email has been in a data breach. You'll get a neat, confident answer. And it's a guess.</p> <p>It's not really the model's fault. It can't look anything up, so it fills the gap from old training data. But a guess is a bad answer when the question is…
