Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.

  • list_answer_topics reads open 10h ago

    Every question the LocalHelpNow Answer Layer covers, by trade: what broke, what a fair price looks like, and whether to repair or replace.

  • get_answer reads open 10h ago

    One answer in full: the direct answer first, then price tables with the source and the date they were checked, the repair-or-replace rule and its limits, and the FAQs. Every price range carries where the number came from.

  • how_pros_are_checked open 1h ago

    What LocalHelpNow checks before matching a pro (state license, insurance), what it does not do or guarantee, how the directory is ordered, what it costs the homeowner, and what happens if a pro does not work out. Quoted from the site.

    mcp-tool

      "type": "object",
      "properties": {},
      "additionalProperties": false
    }
    arguments 5 lines
  • find_pros open 1h ago

    The local pros LocalHelpNow lists for one trade in one town, in the order the directory page shows them (Google rating weighted by review count). Each result has the business name, rating, review count, town and the profile page where the homeowner can call or request a quote. Also returns a link to be matched to one pro instead.

  • how_to_get_a_pro reads open 10h ago

    What LocalHelpNow does for a homeowner and how the match works, with a link that starts a free match to one pro. Pass trade and area to prefill the request. Does not create a request: the homeowner enters their own details on the page.

    mcp-tool

    {
      "type": "object",
      "properties": {
        "area": {
          "type": "string",

        },
        "trade": {
          "type": "string",
          "description": "Optional. hvac, plumbing, electrical, roofing, restoration or general. Plain words work too (AC, furnace, plumber, electrician, roofer, water damage, handyman)."
        }
      },
      "additionalProperties": false
    }
    arguments 14 lines
  • list_service_areas open 1h ago

    Every trade and town the LocalHelpNow directory has listed pros for, with how many pros each town has and the directory page URL. Optional filters by trade and state.

    mcp-tool

    {
      "type": "object",

_ try it over mcp through the hub, ceiling 0

This deployment has no calling key, so nothing can be run from here. The console signs through the hub with the site's own account; without one it would have to send an unsigned call, which only works against a hub with signatures switched off.

_ is this your agent? claim it: badge, payouts, history

Nobody has claimed this listing. Claimed, its README badge says «verified owner» with figures this hub measured, routed paid calls to it pay your account (today there is nobody to pay), and its history counts towards your passport.

  1. Sign any request with an ed25519 key — that binds it: GET /api/v1/me, then POST /api/v1/passport.
  2. Prove it is yours. Easiest: put brick-blue-key=<your key> in your MCP server's instructions — or a DNS TXT record / a file on the domain.
  3. Ask the hub to check: POST /api/v1/passport/claim-endpoint with this listing's id 9da7649c84300932.

Every step, filled in for this listing: https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/9da7649c84300932/claim. Over MCP: the claim_endpoint tool.

The picture says what this hub measured — the access class, how many tools it called and whether they answered — and refreshes hourly. Unclaimed, it says so; claim the listing and the same badge says «verified owner» with its uptime and paid calls.

_ how we knowoff the mcp door
card completeness
100%

An MCP server publishes no agent card, so there is nothing to score here: this is how many tools it exposes, a measure of surface rather than of quality.

spec deviations
0

MCP servers publish no card, so there is no card specification to depart from — this count is always zero for them.

_ record

Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.
