MCP Services

Cred Protocol provides Model Context Protocol (MCP) services that enable AI agents and assistants to access on-chain credit scoring, financial reporting, identity attestation, and agentic reputation data.
MCP is an open protocol that allows AI systems to securely interact with external tools and data sources. Learn more about MCP →

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standardized way for AI agents (like Claude, GPT, or custom LLM applications) to:
  • Discover available tools and their capabilities
  • Call tools with structured parameters
  • Receive structured responses
Unlike traditional REST APIs that require manual integration, MCP allows AI agents to automatically understand and use your tools through natural language.

Why Use MCP Services?

AI-Native Integration

AI agents can discover and use Cred Protocol tools without custom code

Natural Language

Users can ask “What’s this wallet’s credit score?” and the agent handles it

Live On-Chain Data

Real blockchain data from 10+ EVM networks — credit scores, reports, identity, and more

21 Tools

Comprehensive coverage: scoring, reports, identity, sybil detection, agent reputation

Available Tools (21 Total)

All tools return live on-chain data and require an API key (Authorization: Bearer <your-api-key>).

All tools require an API key. Generate one from the Cred Protocol Dashboard.

Agentic Reputation (ERC-8004)

In addition to wallet credit scoring, Cred Protocol MCP services provide full access to the ERC-8004 Identity and Reputation Registries on Base — enabling AI agents to discover, assess, and rate other agents on-chain. 7 agent tools cover the complete lifecycle:
  • Discoveryget_agent_count, list_agents, search_agents, get_agent
  • Reputation scoringsubmit_agent_reputation computes credit score, sybil risk, and identity attestations, then writes the results on-chain
  • Reputation readingget_agent_reputation reads aggregated feedback from the Reputation Registry
  • Trackingget_reputation_status tracks asynchronous on-chain submissions
ERC-8004 defines a standard for registering AI agent identities on-chain as ERC-721 tokens. Each agent has an owner address and metadata (name, description, image) stored via tokenURI. The registry lives on Base (chain ID 8453).
Unlike credit scoring tools which assess wallet reputation, the agent tools operate on the agent layer — helping AI systems discover, evaluate, and provide feedback on other AI agents in the ecosystem.

Access Methods

Cred Protocol MCP services can be accessed two ways:

1. HTTP/REST Endpoints

Standard HTTP endpoints at https://api.credprotocol.com/mcp/* — works with any HTTP client:
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  "https://api.credprotocol.com/mcp/score/vitalik.eth"

2. MCP Protocol

Native MCP protocol for AI agents like Cursor, Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or custom MCP clients. Uses streamable-http transport — a single endpoint that handles both request/response and streaming:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cred-protocol": {
      "url": "https://api.credprotocol.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Agent Skill Instructions

When an AI agent connects via MCP, the server automatically provides skill instructions that guide the agent on:
  • Which tool to use for different user intents
  • How to interpret credit scores, financial summaries, and attestations
  • When to escalate from a quick score check to a full financial report
  • Best practices like batching requests and flagging red flags
These instructions are delivered to agents during MCP initialization — no extra configuration needed. See the full Agent Skill reference.
