Overview

AI-generated overview

OpenFile lets an assistant prepare U.S. company formations and trademark filings, quote fees, and track orders, with the owner signing everything.

What you can do
  • Search and read OpenFile's own documentation, and get the questions, options and rules behind each task
  • Quote formation and trademark fees, list state filing fees and company name rules, and list add-on services
  • Screen a mark for refusal grounds, search live USPTO records, suggest classes and goods wording, and suggest alternative names
  • Inspect a website or app store link for brand and owner details, with quoted evidence
  • Create and update draft formations and trademark applications, returning a review link and a token for later calls
  • Check the status of signed formations, orders, applications and filings, and attach a specimen image
When to use it
Use it when someone wants to start a U.S. company or file a U.S. trademark and wants an assistant to gather requirements, compare fees, check a name, and prepare a draft for them to review and sign. Also useful for looking up state filing costs or checking existing USPTO marks.
Requirements
A remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no package, environment variables or headers are declared. The owner needs an OpenFile order page to enter sensitive details and to sign; the assistant must keep the token returned by draft-creation calls.
Before you install
Drafts create real filings once the owner signs, and a formation authorization grants filing authority; the assistant must never sign, tick confirmations or type names for the owner. Never ask for a Social Security number or ITIN. Name screening and USPTO searches are not legal opinions, and search results cover federal records only. Page text read from websites is untrusted and treated as suggestions. Nothing is charged until the owner signs.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open OpenFile in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.joinopenfile%2Fopenfile/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows
