@whiteintel/mcp-server

Trace ownership. Expose the network. A Model Context Protocol server that gives any AI agent (Claude Desktop, Cursor, …) corporate & offshore ownership intelligence from WhiteIntel: look up companies, search entities (companies and people), screen sanctions, and trace ownership chains to the ultimate beneficial owner.

Freemium — works anonymously on the free tier, or set WHITEINTEL_API_KEY to authenticate as your plan and lift the limits (see Configuration). Forwards to WhiteIntel's public REST API (https://whiteintel.dev/api/public/*) — OpenAPI spec.

Install

No install needed — run via npx:

npx -y @whiteintel/mcp-server

Tools

Tool	What it does
lookup_company	UK company by Companies House number → record + ownership graph (officers, PSCs, parent/subsidiary edges).
search_companies	Free-text company-name search → registration number.
search_entities	Search the corpus (companies + people), live + demo investigations → entity ids.
get_entity	Full record for one entity + its direct relationships.
get_dossier	Structured, fully-cited dossier: cross-source identity, ownership/UBO chain, risk signals, provenance.
trace_ownership_path	Walk ownership upward from a root entity to the ultimate beneficial owner.
lookup_by_identifier	Resolve an entity by a strong id — LEI, OFAC/EU/UN/UK sanctions id, UEN, NIP, SEC CIK, KRS, GB-COH.
get_sanctions	An entity's sanctions exposure (OFAC/EU/UN/UK) for it and its resolved cluster siblings, with sources.
check_offshore_exposure	Walk the ownership chain and flag sanctioned + secrecy-jurisdiction hops (offshore-layering lead).

Data & honesty

• Live corpus: sanctions (OFAC SDN, EU, UN, UK), GLEIF (LEI), ICIJ Offshore Leaks, SEC EDGAR, OpenOwnership (UK PSC), plus live UK Companies House lookup — cross-source-resolved (a sanctioned party linked to its offshore/registry records).
• Demo: three worked investigations — Meridian (BVI UBO chain), Tideway (sanctions exposure), Ardent (VAT-carousel) — flagged source: "demo".
• An absent edge means "not yet observed", not "does not exist".
• Investigative decision-support, not a legal determination of beneficial ownership.

Configuration

Env var	Default	Purpose
WHITEINTEL_API_KEY	(none)	Optional wi_ key (whiteintel.dev → Settings → API keys). Forwarded as a Bearer token to authenticate as your plan and lift free-tier limits.
WHITEINTEL_API_BASE	https://whiteintel.dev	API origin (SSRF-guarded to whiteintel.dev hosts).
WHITEINTEL_TIMEOUT_MS	30000	Per-request timeout.
