This repository is the public connection\nhome for developers and evaluators.\n\n## Connect\n\nThere is nothing to install for normal use.\n\n**MCP endpoint:** `https://mcp.askakil.ai/mcp`\n\n| Client | How to connect |\n|--------|----------------|\n| Claude | Add Akil as a custom connector, paste the MCP URL, and sign in when prompted. |\n| ChatGPT | Use connectors where available, add the MCP URL, and complete the Akil authorization flow. |\n| Codex | Register Akil as a streamable HTTP MCP server. Developer access can send an API key as a bearer token. |\n| Custom agents | Use OAuth for user-authorized sessions or API keys for backend jobs and partner workflows. |\n\nFull setup and docs:\n\n- [MCP overview](https://askakil.ai/mcp)\n- [Developer docs](https://askakil.ai/mcp/docs)\n\n## What agents can do\n\nAkil is organized around civic workflows rather than a single dataset.\n\n- Evaluate a business location: permits, licenses, inspections, location context\n- Research a property or building: ownership, deeds, permits, violations, sales, tax records\n- Follow public money: awards, payments, contracts, agency budgets\n- Understand influence: lobbying, campaign finance, legislation, votes, hearings\n- Check an organization: nonprofit registries, audits, funding history, compliance records\n- Ask about a place: address, BBL, district, neighborhood, radius, polygon, or corridor\n\n## Why this exists\n\nA general model can reason. Akil gives it records to reason from.\n\nThe useful part is not the number of tools. It is that fragmented public\nrecords come back with stable identifiers, source context, and next steps an\nassistant can actually follow.\n\n## Anchor-first design\n\nAkil responses are designed to keep agents oriented around durable civic\nidentifiers:\n\n- `BBL` for tax lots, buildings, ownership, permits, sales, tax records, and violations\n- `EIN` for nonprofits, audits, awards, filings, and organization checks\n- `Agency` for budgets, contracts, payments, rules, hearings, and payroll context\n- `District` or other boundaries for place-based questions\n- `License` and application identifiers for regulated businesses\n- `Time window` for bounded, usable queries\n\nThese anchors let an assistant move from one public record system to another\nwithout losing the subject of the question.\n\n## Example prompts\n\n```text\nI am looking at a storefront lease. What public records should I check before signing?\n```\n\n```text\nWho owns this building, and are there recent permits or violations tied to the tax lot?\n```\n\n```text\nShow public funding, contracts, and payments tied to this organization.\n```\n\n```text\nWhat changed in this council district over the last year?\n```\n\n```text\nIs this restaurant, liquor, tobacco, cannabis, or sidewalk-cafe location worth checking more closely?\n```\n\n## Standards and discovery\n\nFor clients, directories, and evaluators that probe machine-readable surfaces:\n\n- **Server Card:** [`https://mcp.askakil.ai/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json`](https://mcp.askakil.ai/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json) (also at `/.well-known/mcp.json`)\n- **OAuth resource metadata:** `https://mcp.askakil.ai/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource` (RFC 9728)\n- **Protocol:** serves current-era MCP clients (protocol revision `2026-07-28`) and 2025-era legacy clients on the same endpoint\n- **Health:** `https://mcp.askakil.ai/health` reports version and live tool count\n- **Tool behavior:** every tool is read-only and non-destructive, declares MCP safety annotations, returns a source-attribution footer, and states plainly when a search is capped or empty\n- **Registry manifest:** [`server.json`](./server.json) in this repository\n\n## Public surfaces\n\n- Product: [askakil.ai](https://askakil.ai)\n- MCP overview: [askakil.ai/mcp](https://askakil.ai/mcp)\n- Developer docs: [askakil.ai/mcp/docs](https://askakil.ai/mcp/docs)\n- Company: [akilventures.com](https://akilventures.com)\n- Contact: [hello@akilventures.com](mailto:hello@akilventures.com)\n\n## About\n\nAkil is built by [Akil Ventures, Inc.](https://akilventures.com), a Delaware\ncorporation building civic intelligence infrastructure for AI agents.\n\n## License\n\nMIT.
