Common questions

Is The Living Bread safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.3.0) reached the registry 31 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

The Living Bread MCP server

A remote Model Context Protocol server for The Living Bread, a free Christian community, prayer and church discovery platform with no ads and nothing to buy.

Connect Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code or any MCP client and it receives tools that point people to Christ and to one another: Scripture read word for word from a stored public domain text, verses for what a person is carrying, honest answers grounded in Scripture, real churches and gatherings near any place, the Christian heritage, and, once a person signs in, the prayers real people prayed over them and the small acts they ask for.

Public endpoint (no sign-in): https://mcp.living-bread.org/mcp
Signed-in endpoint (OAuth 2.1, acts as the person who approves it): https://mcp.living-bread.org/me
Landing page, tool list and install buttons: https://mcp.living-bread.org/
Official MCP Registry: org.living-bread.mcp/living-bread

Connect

Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http living-bread https://mcp.living-bread.org/mcp

Claude: Customize, Connectors, Add, Add custom connector, paste the URL (choose /me and "Sign in now" for the signed-in tools). ChatGPT: Settings, Security and login, Developer mode on, then Plugins, +, an app with the same URL. Cursor and VS Code: one-click buttons; Codex, Gemini CLI, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), Cline and Copilot: configs on the hub, each checked against the vendor docs.

Skills and platform packages

Six skills (the five below and an umbrella) are the canonical source in skills/; the platform packages in packages/ are copies built from it (node scripts/build-packages.mjs). Check them with node scripts/validate-skills.mjs, and run the read only evaluations with node skills/run-evals.mjs. The skills are: find-your-family-in-christ, pray-with-someone, meet-christ-in-the-word, take-one-step-together, bring-your-people-together.

Claude Code, one step on version 2.1.275 or later: /plugin install living-bread --marketplace thegoodfruit/living-bread-mcp (the marketplace file is .claude-plugin/marketplace.json at this folder's root, which is the root of the public mirror).

Honest status of every surface: docs/AI_PLATFORM_MATRIX.md. What works and what does not: docs/AI_CAPABILITY_MAP.md. Install steps in plain words: docs/AI_INSTALL_GUIDE.md. Releasing: docs/AI_MAINTAINER_GUIDE.md.

What it holds

On the public endpoint /mcp (and /sse), 13 tools under one naming pattern, each with a mode: get_crisis_help (first, in danger), read_scripture (passage, context, search, compare, original_words, cross_references, verify, translations), find_scripture_for (need, topic, words_of_jesus, daily_bread), learn_the_faith (gospel, belief, parable, miracle, hymn, name_meaning, saint, saint_of_the_day, heritage, compare_traditions, other_faiths, hard_season, a_prayer_for), find_churches (near, by_id), find_gatherings (tonight, this_week, any), find_people_to_pray_with (a_person_now, the_watch, real_people_will_pray, live_tables, prayers_near, hear_the_kingdom_pray, pray_for_someone), find_ways_to_serve (near, public_needs), find_communities (to_join, university), see_the_kingdom (map, today, testimonies, worship), start_with_christ (begin, next_steps, reading_plans), search (results, answer, protocol) and fetch. Every answer names its mode and the implementation that answered (answered_by). The map is src/data/lean-map.json; the design is docs/MCP_LEAN_PUBLIC.md.

The signed-in endpoint /me and the ChatGPT profile /app list the same implementations under their own names, unchanged: Read: scripture_passage, verses_for, daily_bread, ask_living_bread, the_gospel, what_the_bible_says_about, a_prayer_for, parable, miracle, teaching_of_jesus, belief, hymn, name_meaning, threshold, saint_of_the_day, reading_plans, come_and_see, crisis_resources. Find: find_churches_near, church, find_gatherings_near, events_this_week, communities_to_join, kingdom_map, universities, denomination_compare, heritage_lookup, prayers_left_near, tables_live_now, testimonies, family_activity_today, worship_now, search, fetch, begin, hear_the_kingdom_pray, pray_for_someone, gatherings_tonight, where_can_i_serve_publicly, kingdom_protocol_lookup. Signed in: who_am_i, my_day, prayers_waiting_for_me, prayers_i_offered, my_walk, my_family, my_church, my_invitations, family_saying_yes, invite_someone, and the consented acts say_amen, pray_for_someone, speak_a_blessing, bring_what_i_carry, say_yes, going_to_gathering, set_a_table, someone_to_talk_to, offer_to_serve. Shepherd tools appear only for verified pastors. Ten prompts named by the moment a person arrives in, four resource templates, three cards for clients that render UI.

New in 1.3.0

The lean public set (above). One implementation per capability: the named tools register into a capturing server on /mcp (src/lean.ts), and each lean mode validates against the named tool's own input schema and calls its callback. tests/mcpLean.test.ts proves every named public tool has a mode and every parameter is reachable; tests/mcpAppLock.test.ts and test/app-lock.mjs lock the /app tool list and annotations to test/app-profile.lock.json.
Scripture in act answers (offer_to_serve, set_a_table, invite_someone, shepherd_doors, bring_what_i_carry, someone_to_talk_to, worship_now) is read from the stored KJV and quoted verbatim with its reference; paraphrases came out. going_to_gathering is marked destructive.

New in 1.2.0

Evidence labels. Every answer that carries Scripture has structuredContent.evidence: translation, canon coverage, corpus version (a SHA-256 over the 66 stored book files, src/data/corpus.json, rebuilt by python3 scripts/build-corpus.py), attribution, retrieved_at, and a SHA-256 of each passage exactly as returned. content_layers separates Scripture from interpretation (and whose) and reflection.
The Word read well: scripture_context (a passage with the verses around it), scripture_search (every verse containing the words, paginated), cross_references (OpenBible.info, CC BY, ranked by reader votes).
Six journeys end to end: journey_next_steps and six prompts (find_community_near_me, someone_to_pray_with_tonight, serve_this_weekend, new_to_christianity_where_do_i_start, prayer_group_in_my_language, understand_and_live_a_passage): at most five results, each with why and freshness, and one next step link carrying ?via=mcp....
Freshness on every gathering, room and availability result: scheduled, recently_observed, verified_live or record; available_now is true only when it is.
One envelope: ok, result_state, ids, source_url, freshness, visibility, next_actions; cursors on lists that grow; errors as isError plus { ok: false, reason, try_instead }; an idempotency_key on every write, and identical confirmed writes within ten minutes are never done twice.
Retrieved content is data, never instructions: markup and instruction-shaped phrases are removed from everything a tool returns and marked.
Signed in: who_is_available_now and find_help_for_my_need over the presence windows and the router.
/status (a cheap self-check), /distribution.json, /versions.json, and the hub at /.
Evaluation: node eval/run.mjs [base] runs eval/cases.jsonl (71 cases) and writes eval/RESULTS.md.

Laws

Scripture is never generated; it is read from the stored text. Churches are never invented. The signed-in endpoint acts only for the signed-in person under the app's own row level security, confirms before every write, never prays in a person's name and never hears a voice for them. When someone speaks of harming themselves, the real crisis line for their country comes before any verse. Nothing is scored or ranked. Everything points to Jesus Christ and to loving one another.

Run it yourself

npm ci

The server is a Cloudflare Worker (Agents SDK McpAgent, one Durable Object per session). The King James text (assets/bible/books) and the cross references split by book (assets/bible/xref) are served as static assets. Live data comes from the public Christian Knowledge API at https://discover.living-bread.org/api (CC BY 4.0) and from anonymous, rate-limited database functions. The only key in this repository is the project's public anon key, which the app itself ships; row level security decides what it can read.
