humanMCP

A personal content server speaking Model Context Protocol (MCP/JSON-RPC 2.0).

Live: https://kapoost.humanmcp.net Landing page: https://humanmcp.net Marketplace: https://marketplace.humanmcp.net Network explorer: https://humanmcp.net/humannetwork.html Author: kapoost (Łukasz Kapuśniak) — poet, builder, sailor. Warsaw / Malta.

What it is

humanMCP lets you publish poems, essays, notes, images, listings, and typed data artifacts with cryptographic proof of authorship, explicit license terms, and full control over who can access what. AI agents connect via MCP and interact with your content natively.

Every human can run their own instance. One server, one person, their rules.

Access: public / members / locked
Gates: challenge (Q&A), time, manual, trade
Licenses: free, cc-by, cc-by-nc, commercial, exclusive, all-rights

Ecosystem

humanMCP Marketplace — federated search across all humanMCP servers. Find listings, offers, trades by humans. MCP endpoint · Source
humanNetwork — visual explorer aggregating content from the growing network of humanMCP servers

Contact

Public links: read_blob slug:"kapoost-contact" — name, handle, github, instagram, facebook, landing page.

Private email: read_content slug:"kapoost-contact-private" — gated. Answer the challenge to access.

Intellectual property

Every piece is signed with Ed25519. get_certificate returns:

SHA-256 content hash
Ed25519 signature + public key
Originality Index (0.0–1.0): burstiness (Fano Factor), lexical density (CTTR), Shannon entropy, structural signature — grades S/A/B/C/D
License terms and price in sats (for commercial licenses)

Discovery & REST API

Agent discovery:

/.well-known/agent.json — agent profile card
/.well-known/mcp-server.json — MCP server discovery
/openapi.json — OpenAPI 3.1 spec (ChatGPT, Gemini)
/llms.txt — LLM preferences (signed)
/for-agents — agent onboarding page
/connect — connection methods page

REST API (for agents without MCP):

GET /api/content — list all pieces
GET /api/content/{slug} — read piece
GET /api/search?q=... — full-text search
GET /api/profile — author name, bio, tags
GET /api/blobs — list data artifacts
GET /listings/feed.json — listings feed
