MCP Server Implementation
Design and stand up a Model Context Protocol server so AI agents can use your data and tools natively, with authorization that holds up.
4 weeks (2 sprints)
Who this is for
B2B SaaS, marketplaces, CRMs, ticketing, documents, calendars, billing - any product whose value compounds when an agent can drive it. Particularly strong fit when customers have already started asking 'do you have an MCP server?'
When you need it
Your product is increasingly being read or operated by AI agents - Claude Desktop, Cursor, custom agent stacks. You want to be present in the agent context window with native tools, not just scraped HTML. Or you can see the wave coming and want to land in the next round of agent integrations on your terms.
What's delivered
- MCP exposure strategy - what tools and resources you should expose, what you deliberately shouldn't, and why
- Tool catalogue with WARRANT-aligned authorization (read-only vs side-effecting, identity scope, audit signals)
- Resource catalogue with mime-types and refresh model
- The MCP server itself, OR a senior-reviewed scaffold your team builds against - the choice is named in Sprint 1
- Discovery surfaces: /.well-known/mcp.json, <link rel="mcp"> tags, HTTP Link headers, robots.txt allowance
- Registry submission kit (Smithery, mcp.so, Glama AI) ready to paste
- End-to-end testing against Claude Desktop, Cursor, Continue, and a custom JSON-RPC client
- Operational documentation for internal teams and external agent consumers
- Board-ready summary of what was exposed and what the agent surface signals about your product
Why this consultant
Co-author of the WARRANT Standard for autonomous agent authorisation. Monitive's own site at /.well-known/mcp.json is the live reference implementation - including the discovery stack, the tool catalogue, the resource exposure, and the legal posture. Clients can audit the live server before signing.
What this sprint is not
- A generic AI integration project (pair with AI Integration Strategy Sprint first)
- A one-day 'stand up the server' engagement (the value sits in design, not implementation)
- A security audit of an existing MCP server (closer to Tech Audit Sprint scope)
Fixed price, fixed scope. Every engagement carries the four guarantees: Sprint 1 Escape Hatch, Board-Ready Quality, Three-Client Cap, Skin-in-the-Game Pledge.
