Otskit tools (6, 1 write)
write = sends, deletes, buys or postsRead from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.
create_timestampwrite actionStamps a SHA-256 hash against public OpenTimestamps calendars. IMPORTANT: the digest is sent to external calendar servers (alice.btc, bob.btc, finney, catallaxy).
inspect_timestampInspects a stored proof file without network calls. Returns calendar_attestations (promises from OTS servers, NOT Bitcoin confirmation) and bitcoin_attestations (actual Bitcoin blocks). A stamp is only truly confirmed when bitcoin_attestations > 0 and bitcoin_confirmed is true.
list_pendingLists stamp records with status and retry info.
upgrade_timestampChecks if a pending stamp has been confirmed in Bitcoin. Use the id returned by create_timestamp.
verify_timestampVerifies a stamp against Bitcoin. Does NOT affirm document authorship or truth \u2014 only proves the hash existed before a given Bitcoin block.
watchOpens a new terminal window that monitors pending stamps in real-time, polling at the given interval. The window stays open so the user can watch progress.

What the publisher says
From the Otskit repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
@otskit/mcp
OpenTimestamps MCP server - stamp, upgrade, and verify Bitcoin timestamps via AI agents.
Exposes a set of tools to any MCP-compatible agent so it can timestamp documents, monitor confirmation status, and verify proofs against the Bitcoin blockchain - all from a conversation.
This is an independent implementation of the OpenTimestamps protocol. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or maintained by the OpenTimestamps project.
Note on confirmation times: After stamping, a proof is pending until Bitcoin confirms it. Confirmations typically arrive within ~60 minutes, but can take several hours during network congestion. Use ots-mcp watch or upgrade_timestamp to monitor. A pending proof is not a failed proof.
Install
npm install -g @otskit/mcpAgent setup
ots-mcp setup claude # Claude Desktop
ots-mcp setup claude-code # Claude Code CLI
ots-mcp setup codex # Codex CLIEach command writes the MCP entry into the agent's config file, makes a .bak backup if the file already exists, and skips if ots-mcp is already configured. Restart the agent afterwards to apply the changes.
