Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Agent-native registry: 168k+ real restaurants in LA, Hong Kong & Tokyo. Unranked, honest signals.

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.

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

    }
  }
}

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

    "registry": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mercantry.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

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.

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

Common questions

Is Mercantry Registry 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 4 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?

Mercantry

Mercantry is an open commerce registry for AI agents — structured merchant data, honest signals, and real-world booking fulfillment.

Current status — read this first.

Mercantry is pre-launch. What is real and what is not, precisely:

- The merchant data is real: 168,000+ restaurants across Los Angeles, Hong Kong, and Tokyo, built exclusively from openly licensed sources (Overture Maps CDLA-P-2.0 + official government registers), conflated with per-field provenance and QA-gated versioned releases. Live counts: get_registry_meta.

- Real merchants are discovery-only for now: place_booking against a real merchant returns the structured rejection fulfillment_not_live. A booking guard makes it structurally impossible for our booking simulator to dial a real restaurant.

- The booking loop is testable end-to-end against sandbox: true merchants — fictional records with deterministic outcomes ("test cards for bookings"). Do not call sandbox phone numbers; they are not real businesses.

- Fulfillment, when it launches, is human-operated phone booking on a phone-verified merchant tranche (voice automation is deferred). Outbound-calling sections of the spec operate only after legal review — publication of the spec is not operation.

- Mercantry is built and operated by a team of AI agents with human oversight, stated here as a fact rather than a gimmick.

Connect your agent

The live endpoint serves MCP over Streamable HTTP:

claude mcp add --transport http mercantry https://agentic-commerce-registry.fly.dev/mcp
  • REST mirror: /v1 — self-describing via /v1/openapi.json
  • Discovery manifest: /.well-known/mcp.json · agent card: /.well-known/agent-card.json · health: /healthz · PII-free ops stats: /v1/stats · privacy policy: /privacy · demo & reviewer guide: /demo
  • Keys are optional (abuse control, not gating): POST /v1/keys with developer_name + contact. All reads are free and unauthenticated.
  • Bulk export encouraged: GET /v1/export/merchants.ndjson — caching, embedding, and training on the data are permitted under the open license.

Copy-paste integrations — curl, Claude Code/Desktop, raw MCP JSON-RPC, OpenAI Agents SDK, LangChain, webhook receiver: examples/. Agent-first tool documentation with example transcripts: docs/mcp-tools.md. If you are an agent working in this repo, read AGENTS.md.

MCP tools

search_merchants (filter-based, never ranked, deterministic documented order) · get_merchant (full signal dump: every field, raw feedback history, operational stats, per-field provenance) · get_availability (honest: performed_at_booking) · place_booking (async) · get_booking_status · modify_booking · cancel_booking (mandatory when plans change — no-shows are tracked per developer key) · submit_feedback (confirmed bookings only, once, within 14 days) · get_registry_meta (evaluate the registry itself, staleness included)

Run it yourself

npm install

npm run dev # seeds a sandbox corpus on first boot; everything in one process

Architecture

┌─────────────┐     ┌──────────────┐     ┌────────────────────┐

│ Agent │────▶│ MCP Server │────▶│ Fulfillment │ │ (customer) │◀────│ src/mcp │◀────│ Orchestrator │ └─────────────┘ └──────┬───────┘ │ src/orchestrator │ │ │ └─ human operator │ ┌──────▼───────┐ └─────────┬──────────┘ │ Registry DB │◀──────────────┘ │ src/db │ ┌────────────────────┐ └──────▲───────┘ │ Ops Console │ │ │ src/ops + src/api │ ┌──────┴───────┐ └────────────────────┘ │ Ingestion │ src/ingest — LA · HK · Tokyo, │ & QA gate │ openly licensed sources only └──────────────┘

The customer is the agent, not the human. One uniform interface with swappable fulfillment backends: agents integrate once; behind the interface, fulfillment can graduate from human phone calls to native merchant integrations without the agent changing a line.

Hard rules encoded in this codebase

  • No ranking, ever. No score fields exist in the schema; search order is deterministic and documented. The registry returns signals, never ordered opinions.
  • No scraped review text. The only feedback served is transaction-verified, submitted by agents against confirmed bookings.
  • Openly licensed data only. Overture Maps (CDLA-P-2.0) + official government registers; per-field provenance with timestamps; QA-gated releases with published drop counts.
  • Opt-out is immediate and permanent. A merchant requesting removal is hard-excluded from discovery and booking the same day.
  • Every booking is auditable. Full event log: tool calls, transcripts, timestamped state transitions.
  • PII is minimal. Reservation name/contact stored only for the booking, never exposed via read tools.
  • Honesty over polish. get_availability says performed_at_booking instead of pretending; get_registry_meta exposes our own staleness; sandbox vs. real is labeled per merchant.

Spec

The full product spec lives at docs/requirements.md. Sections describing outbound calling are published for openness but nothing in them operates until legal review is complete — see the banner at the top of that document.

License

Apache-2.0. The registry spec, code, and data schema are open — openness is the strategy, not a concession.
