Overview

AI-generated overview

Read-only remote access to the Atlas of the Middle: 173 graded studies on middle managers and organizational change, with fact-checked answer pages.

What you can do
  • Search studies by words in title, summary, setting, authors or journal, with grade and one-line summary
  • Fetch a single study record by slug or DOI, including citation, design, setting, Loop parts and related studies
  • Match a question to the closest fact-checked answer page and return its text, graded sources and URL
  • List the parts of the Unfrozen Loop model with how many studies support, mix or challenge each
  • Read author, grading, citation and license details
When to use it
Useful when an assistant needs sourced, graded evidence on middle managers, leading change or organizational change, or a quick fact-checked answer with citations instead of general commentary.
Requirements
Remote streamable HTTP endpoint at unfreeze.us; no authentication, environment variables or headers declared. Network access only.
Before you install
Read-only, but results are a fixed third-party corpus: no study is currently rated High, and the server asks that summaries be quoted as given with counts kept to their date. The about tool includes a paid booking link, so treat any purchase as a separate decision.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Unfrozen Atlas of the Middle 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/us.unfreeze%2Fatlas/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

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.
