Common questions

Is three.ws Tutor safe?

It passed 3 of 3 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 on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed today, and the latest version (0.1.2) reached the registry 34 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

@three-ws/tutor-mcp

Manage a Pay-As-You-Learn tutoring session from any AI agent — read its itemized running tab and close it for an attested invoice.


A Model Context Protocol server that exposes the three.ws Pay-As-You-Learn tutor ledger over stdio. Read a tutoring session's itemized tab — one line item per answered question, with per-item cost and a running total — and close the session to seal an attested invoice.

The tutor bills per answered question; this server's tools are free. Viewing the running tab and closing the session never charge the learner — a learner must never pay to see what they owe or to end the session. Sessions are addressed by an opaque sessionId, so no API key and no signer are required — point THREE_WS_BASE at a deployment and go.

Install

npm install @three-ws/tutor-mcp

Or run with npx (no install):

npx @three-ws/tutor-mcp

Quick start

Claude Code, one line:

claude mcp add tutor -- npx -y @three-ws/tutor-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor (claude_desktop_config.json or mcp.json):

{

"mcpServers": { "tutor": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@three-ws/tutor-mcp"] } } }

Inspect the surface with the MCP Inspector:

npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/inspector npx @three-ws/tutor-mcp

Tools

ToolTypeWhat it does
load_sessionreadRead a session's itemized running tab by sessionId — line items (question, level, tokens, cost), status, and running total.
close_sessionwriteFinalize a session and return its attested invoice — seals the ledger with a SHA-256 attestation and locks further billing.

Both tools are free and move no funds: the per-question answers are the paid action (handled elsewhere). load_session reads live data — the tab grows as questions are billed, so it is not idempotent. close_session mutates state (open → closed) but is itself idempotent: re-closing returns the same itemized total.

Input parameters

`load_session` — sessionId (required, ≤100 chars).

`close_session` — sessionId (required, ≤100 chars).

Example

// load_session

{ "sessionId": "learn-abc123" }

{ "ok": true, "sessionId": "learn-abc123", "status": "open", "createdAt": "2026-06-24T03:40:00.000Z", "questionCount": 2, "lineItems": [ { "n": 1, "question": "What is a Solana PDA?", "level": "intro", "outputTokens": 180, "costAtomics": 10000, "costUsd": "0.010000", "at": "2026-06-24T03:41:00.000Z" }, { "n": 2, "question": "How do CPIs work?", "level": "intro", "outputTokens": 220, "costAtomics": 10000, "costUsd": "0.010000", "at": "2026-06-24T03:42:00.000Z" } ], "totalAtomics": 20000, "totalUsd": "0.020000" }

// close_session

{ "sessionId": "learn-abc123" }

{ "ok": true, "sessionId": "learn-abc123", "createdAt": "2026-06-24T03:40:00.000Z", "closedAt": "2026-06-24T03:45:00.000Z", "questionCount": 2, "lineItems": [ /* same itemized line items */ ], "totalAtomics": 20000, "totalUsd": "0.020000", "attestation": "sha256:…" }

A sessionId with no stored history returns an empty open session (questionCount: 0) rather than an error — an honest "nothing billed yet", not a failure.
