Tamper-evident attestation tools for AI agents — on-chain receipts on Hedera Hashgraph mainnet.

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.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: CRYPTAIR_API_KEY

Install

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

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • You fill in yourself: CRYPTAIR_API_KEY, CRYPTAIR_EMAIL, CRYPTAIR_BASE_URL

Which app do you use?

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

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cryptair": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@cryptair/mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CRYPTAIR_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "CRYPTAIR_EMAIL": "your-value",
        "CRYPTAIR_BASE_URL": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add cryptair --env CRYPTAIR_API_KEY=your-value --env CRYPTAIR_EMAIL=your-value --env CRYPTAIR_BASE_URL=your-value -- npx -y @cryptair/mcp-server

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cryptair": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@cryptair/mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CRYPTAIR_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "CRYPTAIR_EMAIL": "your-value",
        "CRYPTAIR_BASE_URL": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

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": {
    "cryptair": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@cryptair/mcp-server"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CRYPTAIR_API_KEY": "your-value",
        "CRYPTAIR_EMAIL": "your-value",
        "CRYPTAIR_BASE_URL": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

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.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

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

Values you fill in

  • CRYPTAIR_API_KEY secret env
    Optional. Pre-configured Cryptair API key. If unset, the agent can call register_agent at runtime to self-register and the key is silently stored at ~/.cryptair/credentials.json.
  • CRYPTAIR_EMAIL env
    Optional. Email used as fallback when submit_attestation auto-provisions a counterparty account.
  • CRYPTAIR_BASE_URL env
    Optional. Override the API base URL for self-hosted or staging environments. Defaults to https://www.cryptair.io.

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

Common questions

Is Cryptair MCP Server 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?

You need to fill in: CRYPTAIR_API_KEY

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 –, and the latest version (0.1.1) 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. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

Cryptair MCP Server

Cryptographic attestation for AI agents, exposed as native MCP tools.

Lets any MCP-capable agent (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, Zed, …) prove agreements, certify documents, and verify counterparty claims with on-chain receipts on Hedera Hashgraph. Works zero-config out of the box: agents can self-register and start using attestation immediately, with no email verification or human-in-the-loop signup.

What It Does

Cryptair lets two agents (or an agent and a human) prove they agreed on the same digital artifact at a specific moment. Every confirmed agreement is written as a SHA-256 hash to Hedera Hashgraph, producing a permanent, third-party-verifiable receipt.

This MCP server exposes six tools that map cleanly to how agents think:

ToolWhen to call
certify_document"I want to prove this file existed at this moment."
verify_document"Has this document been attested before? Is it tampered?"
initiate_attestation"I want my counterparty to confirm they have the same document I do."
submit_attestation"I received an attestation link from someone — confirm I have the matching file."
check_attestation"What's the status of this attestation session?"
register_agent"Create a Cryptair account for me so I can authenticate."

Install

npm install -g @cryptair/mcp-server

Or run directly via npx (no install needed):

npx -y @cryptair/mcp-server

Configuration

Claude Desktop

Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows):

{

"mcpServers": { "cryptair": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@cryptair/mcp-server"] } } }

Cursor

Edit ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{

"mcpServers": { "cryptair": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@cryptair/mcp-server"] } } }

Cline / Windsurf / Zed

All MCP-capable clients use the same config shape. Point them at npx -y @cryptair/mcp-server.

Optional: Pre-configure Credentials

If you already have a Cryptair API key, you can supply it via env so the agent skips registration:

{

"mcpServers": { "cryptair": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@cryptair/mcp-server"], "env": { "CRYPTAIR_API_KEY": "ctr_live_..." } } } }

Otherwise, the agent will call register_agent the first time it needs authentication, and the API key is silently stored at ~/.cryptair/credentials.json for future use.

Example Agent Prompts

After installing, try prompts like:

"Certify the contents of ~/Documents/proposal-v3.pdf so we have a timestamped receipt."

"Send ~/Documents/contract.pdf to Acme Corp and get them to formally acknowledge receipt — generate the link."

"Acme sent me this Cryptair link: https://www.cryptair.io/attest/abc...?token=xyz. Confirm ~/Downloads/contract.pdf matches what they sent."

"What's the status of attestation session abc-123?"

The agent will pick the right tool and handle credential bootstrapping automatically.

How Attestation Works

Single-party (`certify_document`)

  1. The MCP server hashes the file locally with SHA-256.
  2. The hash is sent to Cryptair, which writes it to a Hedera Consensus Service topic.
  3. You get back a Hedera transaction ID, consensus timestamp, and a public certificate URL.
  4. Anyone can verify by re-hashing the file and calling verify_document — the file content never has to leave your machine.

Two-party (`initiate_attestation` + `submit_attestation`)

  1. Agent A initiates with a document hash and counterparty name. Cryptair returns a shareable URL.
  2. Agent A sends the URL to Agent B via any channel (email, Slack, etc.).
  3. Agent B opens the URL and submits the file *they* have. Their MCP server hashes it locally.
  4. Cryptair compares hashes server-side:
  • Match → both parties' agreement is written to Hedera. Permanent record.
  • Mismatch → tamper event is written to Hedera. Both parties are notified.

Agent B does not need a Cryptair account to participate. If Agent B supplies an email when submitting, an account is auto-provisioned for them and the API key is silently persisted by their MCP server — so they can initiate their own attestations later without any signup friction.

Why MCP, Not Skills

This server is cross-vendor by design. Anthropic Skills are Claude-only; MCP works across Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, Zed, and any future MCP-capable client. One install, every agent ecosystem.

Environment Variables

VariablePurposeDefault
CRYPTAIR_API_KEYPre-configured API key. Skips register_agent.(none)
CRYPTAIR_EMAILEmail used for submit_attestation auto-provisioning if omitted from the call.(none)
CRYPTAIR_BASE_URLAPI base URL. Override for self-hosted or staging.https://www.cryptair.io

Development

git clone https://github.com/Syronius/cryptair-mcp-server

cd mcp-server npm install npm run build npm start

The server speaks JSON-RPC over stdio. To test manually, send tools/list to confirm all six tools are registered.

Free Tier & Pricing

The Cryptair free tier currently lets every account originate a small number of attestations per month. Counterparty completion (submit_attestation) is always free. Heavy users can top up with prepaid credits — see cryptair.io/pricing for details.
