How to connect
How to connect attest-mcp-remote to Claude
The server address to paste into Claude settings:
https://attest-mcp-remote.it-e3f.workers.dev/mcp
- Open Claude (claude.ai or the desktop app).
- Go to Settings → Connectors.
- Click Add custom connector.
- Paste the server address copied below into Remote MCP server URL and click Add.
- In a chat, click + → Connectors and switch the new connector on.
Custom connectors are available on Free, Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise plans (Free is limited to one). On Team and Enterprise an organization Owner adds the connector first under Organization settings → Connectors.
Authorization
After you click Add, a sign-in window for the service opens. Sign in with your own account and approve access. Claude never sees your password.
How to connect attest-mcp-remote to ChatGPT
The server address to paste into ChatGPT settings:
https://attest-mcp-remote.it-e3f.workers.dev/mcp
- Open ChatGPT in a browser (chatgpt.com). A Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise or Edu plan is required.
- Turn on developer mode once: Settings → Apps → Advanced settings → Developer mode.
- Open Settings → Connectors and click Create.
- Fill in the form: Name (anything), Description (one line about what the service does), MCP server URL (copy it below).
- Under Authentication choose OAuth if the service requires sign-in, otherwise None. Click Create.
- In a new chat open + → Apps/Connectors and enable the connector.
OpenAI has renamed this section before (Connectors → Apps/Plugins). If the label differs, search settings for "developer mode". On Business/Enterprise workspaces an admin must allow custom connectors first.
Authorization
On first use ChatGPT opens the service's sign-in window. Sign in and approve access.
How to connect attest-mcp-remote to Cursor
The server address to paste into Cursor settings:
https://attest-mcp-remote.it-e3f.workers.dev/mcp
Fastest: click Open in Cursor below and confirm the prompt.
Manually:
- In Cursor open Settings → Cursor Settings → MCP and click Add new global MCP server.
- Paste the JSON copied below into
~/.cursor/mcp.json(per project:.cursor/mcp.jsonin the repo root). - Save the file. The server appears in the MCP list; authorize it there if asked.
Authorization
If the service needs sign-in, an authorize button appears next to the server in the MCP list.
Server tool list (8)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| service_status | Health of the Spazio Genesi attestation service components: worker (attestation engine), archive (certificate storage), signer (PDF cryptographic signature), anchor (Bitcoin/OpenTimestamps calendars). Values: ok | degraded | down | n/d. |
| check_anchor | Check whether a work's SHA-256 fingerprint has an OpenTimestamps proof anchored in Bitcoin. The proof is created at attestation time and matures (pending → Bitcoin-confirmed) within a few hours. |
| verify_attestation | Verify the server HMAC signature of an attestation issued by the Spazio Genesi service. Confirms that the attestation string (fingerprint + timestamp) and any declared metadata are authentic and untampered. Note: this checks the SIGNATURE only. Whether a given file matches the fingerprint must be checked locally by re-hashing the file. If the certificate carried declared metadata (title/author/year/notes), they must be provided EXACTLY as printed for the signature to verify. |
| lookup_certificate | Look up whether a work's SHA-256 fingerprint has an attestation certificate in the public archive, and get its permanent links (public certificate page, PDF download, OpenTimestamps proof, browser verification). Trust model: this information is reachable only by whoever knows the fingerprint. |
| authorize | Start the device-flow authorization to attest works in this session (up to 20 attestations, 24h). Returns a link the USER must open in a browser and approve (anti-bot check included). After the user approves, call `complete_authorization`. Not needed if the connection already carries an API key header, or for verification tools. |
| complete_authorization | Complete the device-flow authorization after the user approved in the browser. Polls the service briefly; if approval hasn't happened yet, just call this tool again. |
| attest_hash | Attest a work: the service binds the SHA-256 fingerprint to a server-side timestamp and signs it (HMAC). Requires a credential (device flow via `authorize`, or an API key header). Optional declared metadata (title/author/year/notes) are normalized and BOUND by the signature — immutable after issuance, but they remain self-declared (they don't prove authorship). Compute the SHA-256 locally if you have code execution (`sha256sum <file>` / `shasum -a 256 <file>` / `certutil -hashfile <file> SHA256`). NEVER send file bytes or base64 through tool arguments: this server never receives files. If you cannot compute a hash locally, point the user to the website (https://attestazione.spaziogenesi.org, full privacy: hashing happens in the browser) or the Telegram bot @SGAttestBot. |
| create_certificate_pdf | Generate and archive the certificate PDF for a fingerprint attested in this session with `attest_hash`. The PDF is cryptographically signed, anchored in Bitcoin (OpenTimestamps) and archived server-side; this tool returns the permanent links (the PDF itself is downloadable from its URL — it is never inlined here). |
