When running lqt mcp (stdio) or lqt mcp --http :8080 (HTTP), Reach exposes nine tools that MCP-compatible clients can invoke.

Verification tools

verify_address

Verifies a postal address and returns a confidence score, AVC match level, and policy-aware recommendation. Parameters:

verify_email

Validates an email address for deliverability, disposable domain detection, and fraud risk. Parameters:

verify_phone

Validates a phone number, detecting number type and carrier information. Parameters:

verify_contact

Combined verification — verifies address, email, and phone in a single call with a unified confidence score. Parameters:
At least one of address, email, or phone must be provided.

Parsing tools

parse_address

Parses an unstructured address into standardized components using Claude Haiku. Does not consume Loqate credits. Parameters:

Policy tools

list_policies

Returns all available policies (four built-in plus any custom policies registered in the session). Parameters: None

show_policy

Displays the thresholds and rules for a specific policy. Parameters:

set_policy

Registers a custom policy for the current session. Parameters:

recommend_policy

Recommends a policy based on a described use case. Parameters:

Tool availability by mode

HTTP mode exposes fewer tools because parse_address, set_policy, and recommend_policy require local state or an Anthropic API key that may not be available in hosted environments.
