For AI agents

Model Context Protocol

MenFem runs an MCP server, so Claude Desktop, Cursor, and any MCP client can read our research natively — no glue code. Anonymous callers get the public tools below; a key with the mcp:connect scope unlocks the full surface. Agents discovering the site programmatically should start at /llms.txt.

CLI

npx menfem prices

The official CLI — token prices, spreads, claim checks, search, and the call record in your terminal, no key required. npx menfem mcp bridges stdio MCP clients to the server below. github.com/menfem/menfem-cli
