MCP support
Exposes tools to submit a decision brief, check its status, and list recent briefs. It connects to the QuReDec API using a Bearer token.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
uvx quredec-mcpQUREDEC_API_KEYSecretPer-user API key. Generate one at https://quredec.com/account.QUREDEC_BASE_URLOverride the QuReDec API host. Defaults to https://quredec.com.QUREDEC_MOCKSet to 1 to run against an in-process mock (no network, no API key required). Development use only.Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.
Details
From the project READMEQuReDec MCP Server
Run a structured QuReDec decision brief from inside Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client.
Status: alpha (2026-04-30). Wired to the live QuReDec public API (
/api/v1/brief*, per-user Bearer-token auth). SetQUREDEC_MOCK=1for offline development.
What this does
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
decision_brief | Submit a question; receive a structured, evidence-backed decision brief with citations |
get_brief_status | Poll an in-progress brief by ID |
list_recent_briefs | List the caller's recent briefs |
The completed brief contains: executive_summary, recommendation,
confidence (0–1), key_facts[].citation_ids, implications[], actions[]
(with effort + impact), risks[] (with severity + citation_ids),
and citations[] (with citation_id, title, url, source_type).
Install
pip install quredec-mcp
Or from source:
git clone https://github.com/Advanced-Binary-Operations/QuReDec_MCP
cd QuReDec_MCP
pip install -e .
Configure
Generate a QuReDec API key at https://quredec.com/account → API keys. Each key is shown to you exactly once at creation; copy it into a password manager immediately.
Add to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop example):
{
"mcpServers": {
"quredec": {
"command": "quredec-mcp",
"env": {
"QUREDEC_API_KEY": "qrd_live_xxxxxxxxxxxx"
}
}
}
}
Optional env vars:
QUREDEC_BASE_URL— defaults tohttps://quredec.com.QUREDEC_MOCK=1— run against an in-process mock for development.
Usage example
In Claude Code or Claude Desktop:
Use the
decision_brieftool to evaluate "Should I migrate from Stripe to LemonSqueezy?"
The brief comes back with: recommendation, confidence score, key facts with inline citation ids, risks, recommended actions, and a public share URL. Briefs typically take 2–5 minutes; the tool blocks and polls by default (timeout 600 s) and falls back to a synthetic running status with a poll hint if the timeout fires.
Pricing
The MCP server is free. Briefs consume credits from your QuReDec account:
- Starter $4.99 — 3 briefs (one-time)
- Pro $49/mo — 30 briefs/mo
See https://quredec.com/pricing.
Development
Unit tests run against the in-process mock (no network, no key required):
pip install -e ".[dev]"
QUREDEC_MOCK=1 pytest
Run the server locally against the mock:
QUREDEC_MOCK=1 quredec-mcp
Live integration test
scripts/integration_test.py exercises the full path against quredec.com:
submit → poll → assert brief schema → list. It consumes 1 credit from the
account whose key you pass in, so run it sparingly.
QUREDEC_API_KEY=qrd_live_xxxxxxxxxxxx \
python scripts/integration_test.py
Optional env vars:
QUREDEC_BASE_URL— defaults tohttps://quredec.com.QUREDEC_QUESTION— override the default seed question.QUREDEC_TIMEOUT— poll timeout in seconds (default 600).
Exit code 0 on full pass, 1 on the first failed assertion.

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.
