TensorFeed MCP Server
The MCP server has its own repo: https://github.com/RipperMercs/tensorfeed-mcp
User-facing docs, install instructions, and the full tool reference live there. Star and watch that repo to follow MCP server updates.
This subfolder remains in the main tensorfeed repo as the publishing source for the npm package (@tensorfeed/mcp-server) and the official MCP registry entry. Edits to src/, server.json, package.json, etc. happen here and get pushed to the standalone repo on release.
Hosted remote endpoint (zero install, wallet-payable)
You do not need to install this package to use TensorFeed over MCP. A hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint serves a curated 33-tool subset (31 free + 2 premium), and the premium tools are payable per call with nothing but a funded USDC wallet: no account, no signup, no API key.
| Canonical endpoint | https://mcp.tensorfeed.ai/mcp |
| Same endpoint, legacy path | https://tensorfeed.ai/api/mcp |
| Strict x402 transport (for auto-pay wrappers) | https://mcp.tensorfeed.ai/mcp?x402=strict |
Connect any MCP client with an HTTP transport:
{
"mcpServers": {
"tensorfeed": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.tensorfeed.ai/mcp" }
}
}
GET the endpoint for machine-readable discovery info (tool count, payment surfaces, spec version). POST a JSON-RPC 2.0 envelope for initialize, tools/list, tools/call, and ping.
Paying premium tools per call (x402)
The two premium tools, route_verdict (the signed model-routing decision) and whats_new (the full AFTA-signed morning brief), cost 1 credit ($0.02 in USDC, Base or Solana) per call. Three payment paths, pick whichever your client supports:
arguments.payment: call the tool unpaid, read the canonical x402 requirements from the response (accepts array), sign, then retry the same call with the base64 payment payload in the payment argument. Works in every MCP client, no header access needed.
X-PAYMENT header: send the same base64 payload as an X-PAYMENT (or PAYMENT-SIGNATURE) header on the POST.
- Bearer credits:
Authorization: Bearer tf_live_... token from tensorfeed.ai/developers/agent-payments.
x402 client wrappers that auto-pay on HTTP 402 should point at the strict URL (?x402=strict): unpaid premium calls there return a real HTTP 402 with a PAYMENT-REQUIRED header, the wrapper signs and retries, and the settled response carries a PAYMENT-RESPONSE header plus the AFTA-signed receipt in the body. No USDC yet? Claim free trial credits by signing a wallet message at https://tensorfeed.ai/api/payment/trial-credits (no payment required).
Featured: Route Verdict
The single best model to use right now, as one signed call. route_verdict fuses live pricing, contamination-discounted benchmark capability, real production usage, measured p95 latency probes, live incident state, and deprecation flags into one ranked decision, with an AFTA-signed receipt over the exact inputs. Instead of stitching together pricing pages, benchmark leaderboards, status dashboards, and your own latency tests, you get a current, defensible routing answer in one request.
Zero install, no key, one command (works today)
curl -s -A "tensorfeed-cc-quickstart" "https://tensorfeed.ai/api/preview/route-verdict?task=code"
Swap task for reasoning, creative, or general, or pass ?model=<id-or-name> to score a specific model. The free preview is 10 calls per day per IP, no token. Abridged real response:
{
"ok": true,
"preview": true,
"query": { "task": "code", "model": null },
"verdict": {
"rank": 1,
"model": { "name": "Gemini 2.5 Pro", "provider": "google" },
"pricing": { "blended": 5.625, "unit": "per 1M tokens" },
"quality": { "trust_discounted": 0.6498 },
"latency": { "measured_p95_ms": 1223, "source": "measured_probe" },
"operational": { "ok": true, "status": "operational" },
"composite_score": 0.8449,
"why": "code quality 0.6498 after trust discount; corroborated by real usage (rank 5, 6.5% share, flat); measured p95 1223 ms; operational; blended $5.625 / 1M"
},
"rate_limit": { "limit": 10, "remaining": 9, "scope": "per IP per UTC day" },
"upgrade": {
"premium_endpoint": "/api/premium/route-verdict",
"adds": ["runners_up", "AFTA-signed receipt", "filter params", "no rate limit"]
}
}
The agent path (MCP)
With @tensorfeed/mcp-server installed, an agent gets one route_verdict tool with a tier parameter. Call it with the default free tier for the pick, then tier="full" when it needs to defend the choice:
# Free taste: the top pick + reasoning, no token (10/IP/day). tier defaults to "preview".
route_verdict({ task: "code" })
# 1 credit: ranked runners-up, constraint filters, AFTA-signed receipt
route_verdict({ task: "code", tier: "full", max_latency_p95_ms: 1500, budget: 8, min_quality: 0.6 })
tier="full" adds the ranked runners-up, the constraint filters (max_latency_p95_ms, budget, min_quality, require_operational, exclude_deprecated), and the AFTA-signed receipt the agent can audit later. Credits come from tensorfeed.ai/developers/agent-payments.
Why it matters
Models, prices, and latency move week to week. route_verdict is one signed call an agent can act on now and later prove why it routed the way it did, without rebuilding the comparison from scratch each time.
Catalog
24 tools on this stdio package. The core flagships, the eight signed verdicts, the time-series tools, and the webhook watches are dedicated tools; the rest of the 100+ TensorFeed endpoints are reachable through the find_tensorfeed_data discovery tool and callable over HTTP. Free tiers need no token; paid tiers charge USDC on Base via x402 and return an AFTA-signed receipt. The hosted HTTP endpoint above carries a different, broader 33-tool curated subset (SEC EDGAR, openFDA, EIA, USGS, NWS, AI papers, and more). The full tool reference lives in the standalone repo.
Verdict family
Eight signed decisions (route_verdict is featured above). Each is a single tool with a tier parameter: tier="preview" (default) is free, tier="full" costs 1 credit ($0.02) and adds the full ranking and an AFTA-signed receipt:
- provider_reliability_verdict: the safest AI provider to build on, ranked by availability and tail consistency over TensorFeed's own probes.
- x402_settlement_verdict: the x402 settlement momentum, concentration, and leading publisher over a 24h, 7d, or 30d window.
- x402_publisher_verdict: a signed trust verdict on one publisher domain before you pay it.
- stack_safety_verdict: a GO, HOLD, or BLOCK deploy gate over your package@version pins, with the worst CVE or KEV match.
- benchmark_trust_verdict: a trust band and 0 to 100 score for a benchmark, flagging saturation, contamination, and held-out status.
- failover_verdict: when a provider is degraded, the single best operational provider to fail over to, with ranked alternatives.
- ssvc_verdict: the CISA SSVC Act, Attend, Track, or Track* decision for one CVE, with a live KEV cross-check.
Publish a new version
From the main tensorfeed repo:
# 1. Bump the version in mcp-server/package.json + mcp-server/server.json
# 2. Build + npm publish from the mcp-server/ folder
cd mcp-server
npm run build
npm publish --access public
# 3. Republish to the official MCP registry. The script lives at
# repo-root/scripts/, not mcp-server/scripts/, so step back up first.
cd ..
.\scripts\mcp-publish.ps1
# 4. Mirror to the standalone repo - automated. The
# .github/workflows/mirror-mcp-server.yml workflow runs on every
# push to main that touches mcp-server/. To trigger a manual sync,
# go to the Actions tab and run "Mirror MCP server to standalone
# repo" via workflow_dispatch.
Automated mirror setup (one-time)
The mirror workflow needs a personal access token with contents: write
permission on RipperMercs/tensorfeed-mcp. Set it once:
- Generate a fine-grained PAT at github.com/settings/personal-access-tokens
scoped to the standalone repo only, with Repository permissions
Contents: Read and write and Metadata: Read-only.
- Add it to this monorepo as a repository secret named
STANDALONE_REPO_TOKEN (Settings -> Secrets and variables -> Actions).
- The workflow will pick it up on the next push to main that changes
mcp-server/**, or via the manual "Run workflow" button.
