launch529
Registry code: a22628fbc9dffb7c
Launch529 has free, open data for families planning and paying for college: US college costs and net prices, state 529 plan fees, ratings and tax benefits, savings estimates, and whether an expense is a qualified 529 expense. Use search_schools to find a school id, list_529_plans to compare plans, and check_expense for what a 529 can pay for. No account is needed. To manage a family's own plan, expenses and people, the person can make an API key at launch529.com/settings/connect.

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.

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.
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.
- Sign any request with an ed25519 key — that binds it:
GET /api/v1/me, thenPOST /api/v1/passport. - 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. - Ask the hub to check:
POST /api/v1/passport/claim-endpointwith this listing's ida22628fbc9dffb7c.
Every step, filled in for this listing: https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/a22628fbc9dffb7c/claim.

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.
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.
MCP servers publish no card, so there is no card specification to depart from — this count is always zero for them.
Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.
