Details
From the project READMEHexadata Tools — business validation MCP server for AI agents
Hexadata Tools is a remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP, hosted on Apify) with 15 deterministic tools that an AI agent should call instead of guessing: check digits, official tables and official calculations. No LLM inside: the same input always gives the same answer, nothing is stored, and you pay per call ($0.005 per single call, $0.002 per item in batches; invalid input is free).

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
