AI research for agents. Company intel, competitor analysis, web scraping, topic dives. Pay via MPP.

Overview

AI-generated overview

A local MCP server that gives an assistant AI research capabilities such as company intel, competitor analysis, web scraping and topic deep dives, with payment.

What you can do
Run AI research for agents, including company intelligence and competitor analysis on demand. Scrape web content and collect material for topic deep dives. Handle payment for research through MPP using a configured private key.
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs to gather and synthesize research on companies, competitors or a topic, and when the workflow is expected to pay for that research through MPP.
Requirements
Runs as a local stdio process installed from the npm package ilo415-research-mcp, so Node.js is needed. Requires an MPP private key supplied through the MPP_PRIVATE_KEY environment variable. Desktop only; no web execution.
Before you install
The server asks for a private key via MPP_PRIVATE_KEY, which is a sensitive secret; anyone with it may be able to authorize payments. It performs automated payment processing, so research calls may spend money. It scrapes web content, which may send queries or targets to third parties.

Installation

In SourceWeft

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

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
