Accord Trace vs Aga MCP Server

A side-by-side look at the Accord Trace and Aga MCP Server MCP servers: transport, auth, tools, quality signals, and the config to install either one in Claude, Cursor, Windsurf or VS Code.

Tools & capabilities

Accord Trace tools 9

  • accord_trace_create_proofCreate an AccordTrace hash-bound service record. If issuer signing is configured, the proof also carries an Ed25519 issuer signature. Submitted content is not stored.
  • accord_trace_verifyVerify an AccordTrace recorded proof, optionally compare supplied data/hash, and verify an issuer signature when one is present.
  • accord_trace_get_proofRetrieve public non-secret AccordTrace proof metadata by proof ID.
  • accord_trace_hashCompute AccordTrace canonical SHA-256 for JSON-compatible data without creating a proof.
  • accord_trace_network_capabilitiesRead the live one-level AccordTrace Agent Affiliate Network policy, economics, anti-downline rules and payout activation status. Read-only; it does not enroll or attribute an agent.
  • accord_trace_network_statsRead aggregate live affiliate-network states, distinguishing generated invitations, attributions, qualified direct sales, earned commissions and paid commissions.
  • accord_trace_passport_product_capabilitiesRead the live Agent Passport Certificate product price and commercial readiness gates. Read-only; it never initiates checkout.
  • accord_trace_wallet_capabilitiesRead machine-facing Agent Wallet feature gates, Ed25519 signing contract, funded-balance policy, USDC representation and explicit no-credit/no-lending boundary. Read-only; it never creates a wallet or moves funds.
  • accord_trace_resolve_referralResolve a direct AccordTrace referral code to its active public referral record and disclosure without reserving attribution or creating a sale.

Aga MCP Server tools 15

  • get_server_infoGet AGA server info, public keys, and portal state.
  • get_portal_stateGet current portal state, loaded artifact info, and enforcement status.
  • init_chainInitialize continuity chain with genesis event.
  • attest_subjectAttest subject, generate sealed Policy Artifact. Auto-loads into portal.
  • measure_integrityMeasure subject state, compare to sealed reference. Generates signed receipt for every measurement.
  • revoke_artifactRevoke an active policy artifact mid-session. Portal terminates on next measurement. (NCCoE Phase 3b)
  • verify_chainVerify continuity chain integrity.
  • generate_evidence_bundleExport the canonical SEP evidence bundle: signed PERMITTED/DENIED tool-call receipts + Merkle proofs + a mandatory signed checkpoint, for offline third-party verification (verify_bundle_offline, aga-verify, or aga-receipt-spec/verify/verify-sep.mjs). Pin gateway_public_key to prove provenance.
  • verify_bundle_offlineVerify a canonical SEP evidence bundle offline (full §6 algorithm: structural floor, receipt signatures, chain+ordering, leaf-recompute + Merkle bijection, signed checkpoint). Pass pinned_public_key to also prove provenance.
  • request_claimRequest disclosure of a claim. Auto-substitutes if denied.
  • list_claimsList available claims with sensitivity levels.
  • delegate_to_subagentDerive a constrained policy artifact for a sub-agent. Scope can only diminish, never expand. (NCCoE constrained delegation)

Frequently asked questions

Accord Trace is categorized under Cryptography and uses a remote HTTP/SSE transport. Aga MCP Server belongs to Cryptography and uses a local stdio subprocess. Pick Accord Trace for cryptography work and Aga MCP Server for cryptography.

Copy the mcpServers block from the config section on this page into your client's config (for example claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json), then fully restart the client.

Accord Trace has no declared pricing — check the project's own site. Aga MCP Server has no declared pricing — check the project's own site. If a server needs environment variables such as API keys, define them under the env key in your client's MCP config.

Yes. MCP clients support multiple servers: add accord-trace and aga-mcp-server as separate keys in the same mcpServers object, and your assistant will call tools from either one.
