hive-mcp-prior
MCP server for Hive Prior — LEX-IP Patent Priority Timestamping (Project Tachyon §6.1).
Hive Prior issues dual-signed ML-DSA-65 + Ed25519 CBOR receipt envelopes that bind a content hash, an inventor DID, and an exact timestamp on the Hive network. Multiple inventors can stamp the same content; the earliest stamp is the provable first discloser.
Brand color: #C08D23 (Hive Gold, Pantone 1245 C).
