What is the Coin Flip MCP MCP server?

If you want an AI assistant working directly with Coin Flip MCP, the coin flip mcp mcp server is the bridge. Flips a coin.

What Coin Flip MCP does

An MCP server that provides true random coin flips using random.org's randomness API. This server demonstrates the Model Context Protocol by providing a tool for generating random outcomes with configurable sides.

Tools it exposes

Once connected, the assistant can call these 2 tools directly:

  • flip_coin — Flip a coin with configurable number of sides
  • Tools — The Tools tool exposed by this server

Installing the coin flip mcp mcp server

The server is distributed via npm as @modelcontextprotocol/inspector, so most clients can run it without a manual build step. Add it to your MCP client's configuration and restart the client to pick it up — the copy-paste configs for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are on this page.

Where it fits

Developer-tool servers are usually the first ones people connect, because they turn "help me with this code" into an assistant that can actually read the repo and act on it. Coin Flip MCP sits in that group, and the shape of its toolset — flip_coin, Tools — tells you what it is really for. Worth comparing against the other developer tools servers in this directory before you commit to one, since several overlap in scope but differ sharply in setup cost and permissions.

Practical notes

  • This server runs locally, so it operates with whatever access your machine and its credentials already have. Scope that deliberately rather than by default.
  • Maintained by TeglonLabs.
  • MCP clients ask for confirmation before each tool call by default. Keep that on while you learn what the coin flip mcp mcp server actually does with your data.
  • Every entry in this directory is reviewed by hand before it goes live, and details are checked against the project's own documentation.
