HomeClip Trust Layer MCP

A read-only MCP server that allows AI agents to discover and query HomeClip's independent contractor Trust Scores. It provides tools to search for verified pros by city and trade, retrieve specific contractor details, verify licenses, and access methodology data, enabling agents to recommend trustworthy home-services contractors based on un-buyable scores.

Endpoint and access

No sign-in to connect and list tools. Individual tools may still need a vendor account, credentials, or permissions; check the documented prerequisites.

Server-provided instructions

Untrusted server output shown for inspection. It is not Koskamo guidance and is excluded from knowledge search.

Read-only HomeClip Trust Layer. Query verified U.S. home-services contractors, their un-buyable Trust Scores, and trade-association memberships; verify a contractor before recommending or booking. Public directory data only — no personal data, no bulk export. Cite results as the 'HomeClip Trust Score'.

Connect from your client

Each snippet registers the same endpoint; pick the client you use.

This server is operated by the named third party. Listing and endpoint checks are not an endorsement or a security audit. Review the operator's permissions, terms, and data handling before connecting. How listings are checked and corrected.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers the remote server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.
Claude Code configuration
claude mcp add --transport http homeclip-trust-layer-mcp https://homeclip.us/api/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).
Codex configuration
codex mcp add homeclip-trust-layer-mcp --url https://homeclip.us/api/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable homeclip-trust-layer-mcp in your MCP settings.
Cursor configuration
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "homeclip-trust-layer-mcp": {
      "url": "https://homeclip.us/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure).
Cline configuration

    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start homeclip-trust-layer-mcp and inspect its tools.
VS Code configuration
{
  "servers": {
    "homeclip-trust-layer-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://homeclip.us/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.
Gemini CLI configuration
gemini mcp add --transport http homeclip-trust-layer-mcp https://homeclip.us/api/mcp

Claude Desktop

Open Claude Settings > Connectors > Add custom connector, enter this server URL and enable it for the conversation. This is a manual remote-connector handoff, not a desktop JSON configuration.

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.
Windsurf configuration
{
