Quickstart — MCP

Quickstart — MCP (Model Context Protocol)

Verbitas exposes a standards-compliant MCP server, enabling AI agents and orchestration frameworks (Claude, GPT-4, LangChain, etc.) to sign and verify assets without custom API code.

Configure

Add to your MCP configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "verbitas": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@verbitas/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "VERBITAS_API_KEY": "vb_test_YOUR_KEY_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}
