Documentation Overview

opencrater-mcp

An MCP server for OpenCrater — the monetization network for the terminal. Surface OpenCrater inside any MCP client (Claude Code, Codex, …): live network stats, supported AI tools, and how to start earning USDC from your own MCP server or CLI tool.

No credentials needed — every tool reads public data.

Tools

Tool	What it returns
`opencrater_network_stats`	Live network momentum — Blips delivered, developers reached, budget committed to creators, USDC earned by maintainers, supported tools.
`opencrater_supported_tools`	The AI coding tools where OpenCrater Blips render.
`opencrater_get_started`	How a maintainer starts earning USDC with OpenCrater.

Two ways to connect — a local stdio package, or the hosted remote endpoint.
