Connect over MCP

Launchfiles is the AI work harness for small companies: it holds your context, runs the checks, refuses to claim what it can't prove, and hands you one change to approve, with a receipt. Your AI agent can use it directly over MCP.

The endpoint is https://launchfiles.app/api/mcp. This page is for a person. It does not list the server in a registry.

Connect

Claude

In Claude Desktop, add the endpoint under mcpServers.launchfiles.url in claude_desktop_config.json. Free tools need no bearer.

Cursor

Add the same URL in .cursor/mcp.json, or open the install link. Not listed in the official Cursor Marketplace catalog yet. Workspace tools need a bearer.

Install in Cursor

ChatGPT

Add a remote MCP connector and set its server URL to https://launchfiles.app/api/mcp. Free tools need no bearer. If that chat cannot add an MCP server, open /cro, /search-repair-radar, or /deployment-trust in a browser. Those pages are not a tools/call.

Three tiers

Tool rows are read from the side-effect registry. Key and workspace bearers can still call the anonymous tools. Those tools are listed once, on anonymous. There is no fourth tier.

Key is an lf_agent_ bearer. Its tool is the spend class and debits credits. Workspace tools need a verified bearer. External submission still requires approval.
