Guides by TIC tools (5)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts
  • check_offerFree

    Compare an offer someone was pitched (a course, a trading bot, a done-for-you store, a micro-SaaS dream, AI books, voice agencies...) with the 15 schemes in the Reality Check and the 'do not start' guides. Returns what was checked, what could not be checked, and the sources. Use before giving an opinion on any 'AI income' pitch.

  • get_platform_rulesFree

    How a selling or posting platform works for small sellers: fees, house norms, what gets accounts removed, and whether automation or AI help is allowed. Platforms include Etsy, Gumroad, Fiverr, Upwork, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, X, dev.to, Amazon programmes and more.

  • get_wayFree

    Full detail for one way to earn (id from search_ways, or its name): what you sell, honest earnings note, one-time setup, the platform rules, a stop rule and risks, with the link to the public guide.

  • recent_changesFree

    Dated changes that affect people earning online (fee changes, new rules, headwinds and tailwinds), newest first, each with a 'so what' and a source. Optionally filter by platform.

  • search_waysFree

    Search 40 sourced guides to earning online (selling digital products, content, services, resale, clipping, AI-assisted work). Filter by verdict, time per day, or free-to-start. Returns short cards with a link to each full guide. Use for 'what could I do with 1 hour a day', 'is X worth trying', or to list options.

Guides by TIC: an MCP server for earning online, with sources

Ask your AI assistant what is worth trying for extra income online, and get an answer from dated, sourced guides instead of from memory. Ask it about an "AI income" course or a trading-bot pitch, and it checks the pitch against what could and could not be verified.

It serves the public guides at tori-tic.github.io: 40 ways rated worth a try, watch, not proven yet or do not start, rules and fees for 33 platforms, 23 dated platform changes, and a Reality Check of 15 "make money with AI" schemes. Every answer links back to the guide it came from.

Read-only. No account, no API key, no outbound network calls from the server, nothing stored. The data ships with the server.

Tools

All five are marked read-only.

Use it

Hosted endpoint (Streamable HTTP, nothing to install): https://tic-guides-mcp.vercel.app/mcp

  • Any MCP client that takes a URL: add it as a remote server. In Claude, add it as a custom connector.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http tic-guides https://tic-guides-mcp.vercel.app/mcp
  • Claude Code plugin (adds a skill that tells Claude when to use the tools):
/plugin marketplace add Tori-TIC/tic-guides-mcp
  /plugin install tic-guides@tic
  • Gemini CLI: gemini extensions install https://github.com/Tori-TIC/tic-guides-mcp
  • Official MCP Registry: io.github.Tori-TIC/tic-guides

Run it yourself (stdio): clone this repository, npm install, then point your client at node src/stdio.js. The server makes no network calls.

What it is not

It does not promise income. A verdict is a judgement from public sources on a given date, and an earnings note is what could be checked, not what you will make. It is not financial, tax or legal advice. The data is a snapshot; the linked guide is the current version.

Develop

npm install
npm test
