What the polls MCP server does
The polls MCP server provides an agent interface for team polls hosted through polls.basenull.com. Its supported workflow covers the main stages of a poll: create a poll, let participants vote, retrieve the current results, and close the poll when voting is complete.
Polls are described as “one-link” team polls, so the resulting workflow is intended to be shareable through a single poll link. The available description does not specify poll question formats, answer types, vote restrictions, result visibility, or whether participants must authenticate.
Tools and capabilities
The polls MCP server supports four core capabilities:
- Create a poll for a team decision.
- Record a vote on an existing poll.
- Fetch results from a poll.
- Close a poll after voting ends.
Together, these operations allow an agent to manage a poll from creation through completion. A typical use might ask an agent to open a poll, provide its link to a team, check the results, and close the poll once a decision has been reached.
The supplied material does not provide official tool names, argument schemas, return formats, error behavior, or details about how poll links are generated. Those details should be confirmed from the service or its implementation before writing a client that depends on a specific schema.
How it works
An agent invokes the server’s poll operations rather than interacting with the site through a manually scripted browser flow. Creating a poll starts the process; voting adds a participant response; fetching results reads the poll’s current outcome; and closing marks the poll as finished. The available description does not state whether a closed poll can be reopened or whether results remain available afterward.
The polls MCP server is therefore suited to lightweight coordination tasks where the required interaction is limited to creating a question, collecting votes, inspecting the outcome, and ending the poll. It should not be assumed to provide broader project-management, scheduling, messaging, or identity features because none are described in the supplied material.
Limitations and notes
No README is available for this listing. As a result, installation commands, transport details, client compatibility, environment variables, authentication requirements, licensing, and deployment instructions cannot be verified here. The source provided is the polls.basenull.com URL and the short capability description.
Before deployment, verify how the polls MCP server is installed and started, how it reaches the hosted polling service, and what permissions are required. Also confirm the exact inputs for creating polls and submitting votes, along with the response structure for results and the behavior of closed polls. These checks are important for agents that need reliable automation rather than a purely conversational poll workflow.
