MCP support
Available through GAIP's streamable HTTP MCP server at https://www.gaipagents.com/mcp. MCP clients can call GAIP tools without signing in.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Details
From the project READMEGAIP
GAIP, the Governed Agentic Intelligence Platform, keeps an independent, dated record of what AI agents, MCP servers and online shops publish, and answers questions about that record with signed receipts. Free, read-only, no key; facts at a stated time, never an assessment.
First call: gaip_check with a url on https://www.gaipagents.com/mcp. This one runs as-is; then use the URL
of the agent, MCP server or API you care about:
curl -s https://www.gaipagents.com/mcp \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' -H 'Accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"gaip_check","arguments":{"url":"https://mcp.deepwiki.com/mcp"}}}'
Without MCP: GET https://www.gaipagents.com/v1/free/conformance/check?url=<url>.
The map: every question GAIP answers, grouped by who asks, with its tool and HTTP route: https://www.gaipagents.com/v1/free/map. Every completed answer carries a continuity handle; send it back and the answer is bound to your own history with GAIP.

In CI: two GitHub Actions
GAIP Watch fails your build when an MCP server or agent your agent depends on changed its tools, schemas, sign-in or prices, with dated receipts (watch/):
- uses: tjcgraham-rgb/gaip-agents/watch@main
with:
urls: https://mcp.example.com/mcp
GAIP Agents check runs gaip_check on your own agent card, MCP server or OpenAPI document on every push:
- uses: tjcgraham-rgb/gaip-agents@v1
with:
agent-url: https://your-agent.example/.well-known/agent-card.json
fail-on-error: "true"
Outputs: verdict (READY, FIXES_NEEDED, UNREACHABLE or NOT_CHECKED), receipt-id, error-count, warning-count.
Providers can show their own dated record with the badge

Comments
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.
