Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Resolve whether an uncertain side-effecting action completed before software retries it.

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.

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 postfact https://postfact-api-production.up.railway.app/mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "postfact": {
      "url": "https://postfact-api-production.up.railway.app/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": {
    "postfact": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://postfact-api-production.up.railway.app/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

Menu names can differ slightly by plan and over time.

Common questions

Is POSTFACT — Resolve Ambiguous Side Effects Before Retry 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 (0.1.1) reached the registry 2 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?

POSTFACT

Did the call actually happen?

POSTFACT is a tiny ambiguous-outcome resolver for autonomous software. Use it after a side-effecting API/tool action fails ambiguously and before retrying.

Production: https://postfact-api-production.up.railway.app

It is intentionally strict:

  • DONE only when affirmative evidence establishes completion.
  • NOT_DONE only when affirmative evidence establishes non-execution.
  • UNKNOWN whenever evidence is insufficient. UNKNOWN is the safe default.

POSTFACT does not execute the underlying action, move money, or pretend a timeout means failure.

REST

Production endpoint: POST https://postfact-api-production.up.railway.app/v1/resolve

Input accepts method/status/failure, side-effect and idempotency context, durable references, and optional affirmative evidence. Output is state, retry_safe, confidence, evidence, and next.

MCP

Remote endpoint: POST https://postfact-api-production.up.railway.app/mcp

Tool: resolve_outcome

The tool description explicitly tells agents to invoke POSTFACT after an ambiguous side-effect failure and before retry.

Middleware-shaped contract

const outcome = await postfact.resolve(failureContext)

if (outcome.state === 'DONE') return completed if (outcome.state === 'NOT_DONE' && outcome.retry_safe) return retry() return verifyOrHold()

Future SDKs can wrap retry middleware without changing the wire contract.

POSTFACT + RECOVER

POSTFACT answers what can we establish happened? RECOVER answers what is the safest next action? A future retry stack can call POSTFACT first, then RECOVER when the outcome remains uncertain.
