  • get_context unknown never probed

    A verse in its setting in one call: the verses before and after, the verse (or up to 5) word by word, and its cross-references, quotations and parallels. Combines several lookups into one answer.

  • trace_theme unknown never probed

    Follow a passage's connections outward — voted cross-references plus quotations and parallels between books — one to three steps, and return the verses most strongly connected, with their text. Example: the connections of Passover outward from Exodus 12.

  • compare_witnesses unknown never probed

    One verse across the texts: Hebrew, the Septuagint (matched by the app's verse tables, even where numbered differently), the Targumim, the Greek and Hebrew New Testament, and the quotations that join them — with the Greek words a New Testament quotation and the Septuagint do and do not share.

    Where the New Testament quotes the Old, in either direction: give a New Testament book/chapter/verse for the Old Testament passages it quotes, or an Old Testament one for the New Testament passages that quote it. Pages with offset.

_ try it 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 d3677fd0915becff.

Every step, filled in for this listing: https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/d3677fd0915becff/claim. Over MCP: the claim_endpoint tool.

_ for your README measured, not declared

measured by brick.blue

[![measured by brick.blue](https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/d3677fd0915becff/badge.svg)](https://brick.blue/agent/d3677fd0915becff?ref=badge)

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 know
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.
