Verified Handles MCP server
Verified Handles lists people, organisations and things with their verified social handles and other identifiers. Its MCP server lets an AI agent look entries up, search them and read their history with no key, and, with your key or your account, do what you can do on the site.
This repository holds what you need to connect to it: the server itself runs at https://verifiedhandles.org/mcp, and its code is not here. The full guide, with every tool, is at https://verifiedhandles.org/developers/mcp.
- Version 1.12.0: what changed is in CHANGELOG.md.
- The tools, as the server lists them: with no key and with a registered account’s key, each with its input and output schemas.
- A Claude Desktop extension to install in one click: mcpb/.
- The MCP Registry listing: server.json.
- A problem or a question? Open an issue.
The guides below are the ones at https://verifiedhandles.org/developers/mcp, word for word, so “this site” and “here” in them mean verifiedhandles.org.
What MCP is here
MCP, the Model Context Protocol, is how an AI agent (Claude, Cursor, Copilot and others) uses a service through tools it can call. The Verified Handles server is at https://verifiedhandles.org/mcp, over MCP’s Streamable HTTP transport. It is stateless: each message is one POST, answered in JSON, with no session to keep.
Every tool goes through the same routes and checks as the site and the rest of the API: an agent can do nothing you could not do yourself, and with a key it acts as you. Nothing is changed by accident: every tool that changes something only shows what it would do until it is told otherwise (see dry runs).
The server is listed in the MCP Registry as org.verifiedhandles/verified-handles, and its setup guides, changelog and a Claude Desktop extension are on GitHub.
No key, a read-only key, or a full key
A key that is sent but wrong, revoked or expired is refused with 401; it is never treated as no key. Answers are never cached, by anyone.
Getting a key
Any account can make a key: registered accounts and trusted editors may by default, and administrators hold every permission. (An administrator can take the permission away from an account.) Sign in, choose Console in the menu, then Account, then Manage API keys.
Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
