Post-quantum readiness of any website, PQC adoption figures, the probe map; paid checks via x402.
Checks whether public websites use post-quantum key exchange, and reports internet-wide PQC adoption figures, probe locations and service status.
Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
Follow the launch instructions in the repository.
Witnessory measures how far the internet has moved to post-quantum cryptography. This is the client: the services as Python functions, a command line, and an MCP server so an agent can use them as tools. Standard library only; Apache 2.0.
Command witnessory, argument mcp. For example, in a client's configuration:
Tools: check_site, pq_headline, probe_map, service_status, pricing. Resources: Witnessory's llms.txt and
pricing.json. Messages are JSON-RPC, one per line, on stdin and stdout.
A free check is one vantage, once: 20 new checks an hour from one address, results reused for 10 minutes. A paid
plan's key (WITNESSORY_KEY, or --key) makes checks fresh and counted per month instead of per address. Every
answer carries offers: what more there is and where the prices are (https://witnessory.org/pricing.json). Watching
your own sites over time from several networks, with alerts and signed evidence, is a separate product on the same
page.
No account is needed: GET https://api.witnessory.org/pay/check?domain=example.org answers 402 with what to pay
(x402 v2; USDC on Base), and any x402-capable client pays and resends. This client can pay too:
From code: witnessory.pay.check("example.org") and witnessory.pay.buy_key("api-developer"). As an MCP tool:
pay_check. Index of what is sold: https://api.witnessory.org/pay.

Check whether one public website's encryption would stay private against a future quantum computer: whether a current browser gets post-quantum key exchange from it, and what its certificate uses. Signed result with a plain summary. Domain names only (no addresses, ports or private names).
domainrequiredThe observatory's current headline figures by layer (post-quantum key exchange on the top sites, SSH, DNSSEC, mail, routing and more), when they were computed and how many probes they rest on.
Takes no parameters.
Where Witnessory's probes measure from: probes active in the last 7 days by country and network, and the probes with the most credits.
Takes no parameters.
Whether each Witnessory service is up, from the hourly watch.
Takes no parameters.
Pay $0.01 from the configured wallet (WITNESSORY_PAY_KEY; USDC on Base) for one fresh, signed check of a public website, without an account. Use when the free check is rate-limited or a fresh (not reused) result is needed.
domainrequiredWhat Witnessory sells and at what price: watching sites over time from several networks with alerts and signed evidence, API keys with higher limits, evidence reports, data licences. Includes how to buy.
Takes no parameters.

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
