Corroborate Me MCP Server

CorroborateMe

Prove end users to agents and apps.

CorroborateMe gives agents and apps company API keys and human login-links with multi-channel notify so they can prove who the end user is - plus OIDC client registration, integration secrets, and budget-aware billing. REST is first-class; MCP is optional.

Live endpoint: https://corroborateme.com/mcp

This repository is the public catalog and schema stub for directory crawlers. It is not the hosted server. Point MCP clients at the live URL above with a CorroborateMe API key (aa_...) or use MCP OAuth (PRM at /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource). Running the TypeScript in this repo does not authenticate users or store secrets.

Agent guide: see AGENTS.md for discovery URLs, auth, and MCP connect snippets.

Get an API key

Zero-human (agents)

1. POST https://corroborateme.com/api/agents/bootstrap with optional { "company_name": "...", "contact_email": "agent@example.com" } -> bootstrap token (no outbound mail).
2. POST https://corroborateme.com/api/billing/machine-pay with Authorization: Bearer <bootstrapToken> and optional { "sku": "pro_prepaid_30d" }.
3. Settle Stripe MPP when enabled (see live GET /api/config for amounts) -> response includes secret (aa_...) when unlock succeeds.

See llms.txt and llms-full.txt. Legal: Terms · Privacy.

Human path

1. Open corroborateme.com and create an account.
2. Subscribe on Pricing, then mint an API key in the console. Secrets start with aa_.
3. Use the company key for REST and MCP.

Never commit a real key. Use the aa_... placeholder in configs.

Connect a client

Transport is Streamable HTTP. Authenticate with either:

• Authorization: Bearer aa_... (API key from console or bootstrap + machine-pay), or
• MCP OAuth - host discovers PRM at /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource, registers via DCR, and obtains an access token for https://corroborateme.com/mcp

Cursor

Install via Cursor Marketplace (plugin)

This repo includes a Cursor plugin manifest and root mcp.json for one-click install from the Cursor Marketplace.

1. Install the CorroborateMe plugin from the marketplace (or clone this repo for local plugin testing).
2. Open Cursor Settings -> Customize -> CorroborateMe and set CorroborateMe API key (aa_... from bootstrap + machine-pay or the console).
3. Reload the window. MCP tools should appear under the CorroborateMe server.

The plugin points at https://corroborateme.com/mcp with Authorization: Bearer ${CORROBORATE_ME_API_KEY}. Never commit a real key.

Submit the public repo at cursor.com/marketplace/publish when ready.

Manual MCP config

User or project MCP config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "corroborate-me": {
      "url": "https://corroborateme.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer aa_..."
      }
    }
  }

Generic remote MCP

{
  "url": "https://corroborateme.com/mcp",
  "headers": {
    "Authorization": "Bearer aa_..."
  }
}

Discovery manifests on the product host:

• /.well-known/mcp.json
• /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource (MCP OAuth)
• /llms.txt
• /openapi.json

Tools

Schemas in src/server.ts match the hosted server.

Typical agent loop

1. Bootstrap a company (agent_bootstrap) and unlock prepaid Pro (billing_machine_pay) when needed.
2. Mint a key with keys_create if you need a durable aa_... secret.
3. Allowlist callback prefixes (webhook_allowlist_add), then create_login_link for human proof.
4. Poll with get_login_status (or wait for webhook / redirect / postMessage).
5. Use REST or MCP for keys, OIDC clients, and integrations as needed.

Prefer live docs and llms-full.txt for recipes that may change.

Auth and errors

• 401 - missing or invalid Authorization (API key aa_... or MCP OAuth access token)
• 402 / 429 - plan or quota; follow machine-readable actions from the live API
• Pricing amounts: read live GET /api/config - do not hardcode dollars as eternal truth (at time of writing: Pro $5.99/mo, agent prepaid Pro $5.99 per 30 days)

The CorroborateMe product (Worker, billing, IdP) is closed source. This catalog is MIT-licensed so directories can list tools and install snippets.

Directory listing

Registry name: com.cnrcode/corroborateme (domain namespace via cnrcode.com).

1. Ensure https://cnrcode.com/.well-known/mcp-registry-auth is deployed.

2. Set GitHub repo secret MCP_PRIVATE_KEY (the existing cnrcode.com Ed25519 private key hex; never commit it).

3. Push a version tag so GitHub Actions publishes server.json to the official MCP Registry:

   git tag v0.1.0
   git push origin v0.1.0
   

Directories that ingest the official registry (PulseMCP, MCPCentral, MCPFind, Glama connectors) pick the entry up from there. Other directories (Glama server listing, Smithery, mcpservers.org, mcp.directory, MCP Market, McpMux) are submitted by maintainers only. See docs/directory-listings.md.

Stdio stub (directory introspection)

This repo includes a stdio catalog stub (src/main.ts) so directories can build a container, start the process, and introspect the 13 tool definitions. It does not implement auth or billing - clients still connect to the hosted endpoint above.

Local verify:

npm ci && npm run build && npm start   # hangs on stdio - expected
docker build -t corroborate-me-stub . && docker run -i corroborate-me-stub
