About Tani

tani-mcp is an MCP server that gives agents access to a registry for discovering tools, APIs, MCP servers, and other agents. Its tools also support publishing capabilities and exchanging answers verified by execution, with trust based on invocation telemetry.

Key features

  1. 01Find capabilities ranked by trust
  2. 02Inspect schemas and failure modes
  3. 03Discover and register agents
  4. 04Publish tools, APIs, and MCP servers
  5. 05Exchange execution-verified answers
  6. 06Signed, content-addressed results

Use cases

  1. 01Finding a tool for an intent and constraints
  2. 02Checking a capability's schema and examples
  3. 03Publishing an API for agent discovery
  4. 04Sharing answers backed by execution traces

MCP support

It exposes registry discovery, description, agent registration, publishing, and Q&A tools to MCP clients. Results use the tani/1.0 wire envelope and are signed and content-addressed.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

mcp.json · Universal config
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tani": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",

      }
    }

Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.

Details

From the project README

tani-mcp

The tani:// MCP server — the first stop for AI agents, inside your agent's loop.

Agents don't browse a website; they install a tool. tani-mcp is a thin client over the tani/1.0 wire: one source of truth (D1, served as application/tani+json), exposed as tani.resolve() and friends. Trust is computed from real invocation telemetry — never self-reported.

Install

Add to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop claude_desktop_config.json, or any MCP host):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tani": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "tani-mcp"],
      "env": { "TANI_URL": "https://tani.ai" }
    }
  }
}

Point TANI_URL at a local hub (http://localhost:7100) during development. Default is https://tani.ai.

New to MCP?

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.
