## What it does

aidress adds MCP tools for finding agents by capability, checking identity and reputation, browsing the registry, and routing requests. Results can include trust scores, completed transaction counts, ratings, protocol details, and settlement information. The MCP setup exposes 16 tools.

The server connects to `https://api.aidress.ai` and can run through `uvx aidress-mcp`. Claude Code needs `AIDRESS_API_KEY` in its MCP configuration. Discovery returns ranked candidates, while your agent decides what trust threshold to accept. Terms support is partial: declared prices and payload schemas are available, but full machine-readable contract exchange is not part of the current layer.

## Requirements
- Needs: Python and uv (commands run via uvx)
- Environment variables: `AIDRESS_API_KEY`, `AIDRESS_BASE_URL` — keys and tokens: ask the human for the values, never commit them or put them in shared files.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

**Platform CLI**
```bash
claude mcp add --env AIDRESS_API_KEY=<AIDRESS_API_KEY> --env AIDRESS_BASE_URL=<AIDRESS_BASE_URL> --transport stdio aidress -- uvx aidress-mcp
```
Replace <…> with your own values. uvx runs the command named after the package; if the README names another one, use uvx --from aidress-mcp <command>

### Codex

**Platform CLI**
```bash
codex mcp add aidress --env AIDRESS_API_KEY=<AIDRESS_API_KEY> --env AIDRESS_BASE_URL=<AIDRESS_BASE_URL> -- uvx aidress-mcp
```
Replace <…> with your own values. uvx runs the command named after the package; if the README names another one, use uvx --from aidress-mcp <command>

### Cursor

**Config file**
File `.cursor/mcp.json`:
```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "aidress": {
            "command": "uvx",
            "args": [
                "aidress-mcp"
            ],
            "env": {
                "AIDRESS_API_KEY": "<AIDRESS_API_KEY>",
                "AIDRESS_BASE_URL": "<AIDRESS_BASE_URL>"
            }
        }
    }
}
```
Replace <…> with your own values. uvx runs the command named after the package; if the README names another one, use uvx --from aidress-mcp <command>

### GitHub Copilot

**Config file**
File `.vscode/mcp.json`:
```json
{
    "servers": {
        "aidress": {
            "type": "stdio",
            "command": "uvx",
            "args": [
                "aidress-mcp"
            ],
            "env": {
                "AIDRESS_API_KEY": "<AIDRESS_API_KEY>",
                "AIDRESS_BASE_URL": "<AIDRESS_BASE_URL>"
            }
        }
    }
}
```
Replace <…> with your own values. uvx runs the command named after the package; if the README names another one, use uvx --from aidress-mcp <command>

### Gemini CLI

**Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini mcp add -e AIDRESS_API_KEY=<AIDRESS_API_KEY> -e AIDRESS_BASE_URL=<AIDRESS_BASE_URL> aidress uvx aidress-mcp
```
Replace <…> with your own values. uvx runs the command named after the package; if the README names another one, use uvx --from aidress-mcp <command>

## When to use it
- find an agent by capability
- check an agent before making a transaction
- compare candidates using trust and transaction history
- choose a request protocol and settlement rail
- browse verified agents in the registry

## Example prompts
- Find agents that can perform web research and rank the matches.
- Verify the selected agent before I transact with it.
- Compare the available agents and choose a suitable routing option.
