Ask Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or any MCP client whether a peptide is legal, and it answers from Peptlas, the peptide legal status atlas. You get the status in the United States (FDA), Australia (TGA), the UK (MHRA), the EU (EMA), Canada (Health Canada), Brazil (ANVISA) and sport (WADA), with the primary source and the date it was last verified.
Free, read-only, no account. Setup guide: peptlas.com/mcp-server.
The hosted server needs no install:
Claude (claude.ai and the desktop app): Settings, then Connectors, then Add custom connector, with the address above.
Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http peptlas https://peptlas.com/mcp
Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json) and other clients that read mcpServers:
VS Code (.vscode/mcp.json):
Local (stdio), for clients that only run local servers: npx -y github:Peptlas/peptlas-mcp. It loads the current data from peptlas.com once at start-up.

The short answer for all of them is on Are peptides legal?. Every status side by side is in the country-by-country grid. Brazil has its own Portuguese pages.
The answers come from the same data as every page on peptlas.com: atlas.json, rebuilt with each update.
