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.

  • get_archives reads open 14h ago

    List all archives with statistics Returns an array of all participating archives including their archive code (used in other API calls), name, homepage URL, Twitter handle, ISIL code and search URL on Open Archives. Note: version 1.1 adds ISIL codes and removes defunct ArchiefWiki links.

  • browse_transcriptions reads open 14h ago

    Browse transcriptions hierarchically Returns a hierarchical browse of available page transcriptions. Mirrors `/transcripties/lijst/`. Three modes, depending on the supplied filters: * No filter — top-level list of source archives ordered by total transcription count (descending). * `archive_code` — list of all archive numbers (archieftoegangen) within that archive, ordered by archive number. * `archive_code` + `archive_number` — list of all inventories within that archive number, ordered by inventory number. The order of items is fixed and cannot be overridden. Results are always returned in full (no paging).

  • get_births_years_ago reads unknown 9h ago

    List births that occurred a specified number of years ago Returns a list of birth records for people born exactly the specified number of years ago from today. Note: version 1.1 uses `archive_code` instead of `archive` and includes the archive name and record URL.

  • get_event_type_stats reads unknown 7h ago

    Record count statistics per event type Returns statistics about event types. Without an archive_code all event types across the entire dataset are returned with total counts. With an archive_code, only event types for that archive are returned. Note: version 1.1 uses `archive_code` instead of `archive`.

_ 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 f1c2bcc17b4b6a7e.

Every step, filled in for this listing: https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/f1c2bcc17b4b6a7e/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/f1c2bcc17b4b6a7e/badge.svg)](https://brick.blue/agent/f1c2bcc17b4b6a7e?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 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.
