ProvenTools
Read-only ProvenTools business ideas, evidence, build prompts, and validation reports.
Runs on your machine from its package; the steps are below.
What it does
- Reads
- Writes
- High impact
At most: only reads or looks up information.
What it costs
FreeOdel charges nothing per call. The publisher may charge for its own service.
Runs locally over stdio
This server isn't hosted — your MCP client launches it from a package registry. Use one of the commands below, or drop the config into your client (e.g. Claude Desktop).
Run
npx -y @proventools/mcp
MCP client config
{
"mcpServers": {
"proventools": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@proventools/mcp"
]
}
}
}ProvenTools agent clients
Official open-source clients for connecting developer tools and local agents to ProvenTools.
proventools: read-only CLI plus a bundled agent skill@proventools/mcp: read-only local stdio MCP server
The hosted ProvenTools application, API implementation, datasets, content, and customer systems are not part of this repository.
Status
The CLI and read-only local MCP betas are published on npm and GitHub.
The repository also contains metadata prepared for the official MCP Registry, Claude's community plugin marketplace, and the Cursor Directory. Installing the clients is free. Access to ProvenTools data still requires an eligible ProvenTools account and API key.
Directory publication is approval-gated and is not performed by the test or npm staging workflows.
Verify
Use Node.js 22.14 or newer:
npm test
The tests build the real npm tarballs, enforce exact contents, scan for common credential and personal-data patterns, install both packages offline, and run their executable smoke tests.
Security
Never include a ProvenTools API key in an issue, prompt, command argument,
checked-in configuration, or log. Report vulnerabilities privately through
https://www.proventools.net/contact.
