Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

On-chain provenance lookup for AnchorRegistry. Resolve AR-IDs, hashes, and full trees. Authless.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Works in Claude on the web, desktop and mobile:

  1. Open Settings → Connectors
  2. Press Add custom connector
  3. Paste the address below and press Add
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http ar https://mcp.anchorregistry.ai/mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ar": {
      "url": "https://mcp.anchorregistry.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "ar": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.anchorregistry.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

ChatGPT connects only to servers on the internet:

  1. Open ChatGPT on the web → Settings → Connectors (Apps)
  2. Press Create or Add (some plans need Developer mode under Advanced first)
  3. Paste the address below, give it a name and save
  4. If it asks you to sign in, sign in with the maker
SettingsConnectors1+ Create2https://…3

Menu names can differ slightly by plan and over time.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Compared with others in Crypto & blockchaini

  • More stars than 0% of the other 1617 servers in this category
  • Published to the registry more recently than 14% of the other 1617 servers in this category
  • Basic checks equal to or better than 100% of the other 1617 servers in this category

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.

Common questions

Is AnchorRegistry 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 (0.1.0) reached the registry 6 months 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?

ar-mcp

The AnchorRegistry MCP server. Resolve any AR-ID, manifest hash, or provenance tree from any MCP-compatible AI client.

Endpoint: https://mcp.anchorregistry.ai/mcp

Install

Claude Desktop

Settings → Integrations → Add server. URL: https://mcp.anchorregistry.ai/mcp

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http anchorregistry https://mcp.anchorregistry.ai/mcp
Cursor

Settings → MCP → Add new MCP server. Name: anchorregistry · Type: http · URL: https://mcp.anchorregistry.ai/mcp

Tools

ar_verify_arid

Resolves an AR-ID to its full provenance record.

"What's at AR-2026-qnPOJ1z?"

ar_verify_by_hash

Resolves an artifact by SHA-256 manifest hash.

ar_resolve_tree

Returns the full provenance tree for any AR-ID.

How it works

ar-mcp is a thin proxy. Every tool call hits api.anchorregistry.ai and returns the JSON unchanged. No data is logged, no credentials are stored, no state is held between requests.

The full surface is documented at:

  • https://anchorregistry.ai/llms.txt
  • https://anchorregistry.ai/agents.json
  • https://api.anchorregistry.ai/openapi.json

Roadmap

v0.2 will add ar_check_balance and ar_register_artifact once the MCP credential-handling pattern stabilizes across clients. ar_seal_tree is deferred indefinitely (irreversible action; needs robust user-confirmation primitives the protocol does not yet provide). The deferred tools are fully implemented and live in src/future-tools.ts — enabling them is a one-line flip per tool.

Develop

npm install

npm test # vitest, hits live api.anchorregistry.ai npm run type-check npm run dev # wrangler dev — http://localhost:8787 npm run deploy # wrangler deploy
