How to Set Up and Use Fact MCP Tool

Fact MCP Tool (FactCheckr) is a Python-based MCP server that provides AI-powered fact-checking capabilities to LLM agents. It exposes a fact-checking tool that accepts a claim, runs it through an AI model, and returns a verdict, confidence score, and supporting evidence — enabling agents to verify statements before presenting them to users.

Prerequisites

  • Python 3.8 or newer
  • pip package manager
  • An MCP-compatible AI client such as Claude Desktop or Claude Code
  • Internet access for AI-powered claim verification
1

Install FactCheckr from PyPI

Install the factcheckr package globally or in a virtual environment. This installs both the CLI tool and the MCP server.

pip install factcheckr
2

Verify the installation

Confirm the package installed correctly by checking the version and running a quick fact-check from the command line.

factcheckr --version
factcheckr "The Earth orbits the Sun"
3

Test JSON output mode

The MCP server returns structured JSON results. Test this mode to confirm the output format before connecting an AI client.

factcheckr "Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius" --json
4

Clone the repository and start the MCP server

Clone the repository to access the MCP server entry point and start it so your AI client can connect.

git clone https://github.com/geno543/fact_MCP_tool.git
cd fact_MCP_tool
pip install -r requirements.txt
python server.py
5

Add the server to your MCP client config

Register the fact-checking MCP server with your AI client by adding it to the mcpServers section of your config file.

Fact MCP Tool Examples

Client configuration

Claude Desktop configuration that starts the FactCheckr MCP server using Python directly from the cloned repository.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fact-mcp-tool": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["/path/to/fact_MCP_tool/server.py"]
    }
  }
}

Prompts to try

Use these prompts to have your AI agent fact-check claims through the MCP server.

- "Use the fact checker to verify: 'The Great Wall of China is visible from space'"
- "Fact-check this claim and give me the confidence score: 'Lightning never strikes the same place twice'"
- "Check whether it's true that humans only use 10% of their brain"
- "Verify this statement and return JSON output: 'Diamonds are the hardest natural material'"

Troubleshooting Fact MCP Tool

factcheckr command not found after pip install

The pip scripts directory may not be in your PATH. Run python -m factcheckr instead, or add the pip scripts directory to your PATH. On macOS/Linux this is typically ~/.local/bin; on Windows it is %APPDATA%\Python\Scripts.

Fact-check returns low confidence or incorrect verdicts

The tool uses AI models that may not have up-to-date information. For time-sensitive claims, use the --verbose flag to inspect the evidence returned. The fallback system handles common well-known facts when AI is unavailable.

MCP server fails to start from the cloned repository

Ensure all dependencies are installed with pip install -r requirements.txt. If server.py is not found, check the repository structure — the entry point file may be named differently. Check the repository's README for the exact command.
