# RevClamp MCP Server & CLI (`revclamp-mcp`)

[![RevClamp Enterprise — B2B Revenue & Compliance Guardrails](https://revclamp.com/assets/revclamp-product-banner.png)](https://revclamp.com)

[![mcptry](https://mcptry.com/badge/com.revclamp/revclamp-mcp.svg)](https://mcptry.com/servers/com.revclamp/revclamp-mcp)

**`revclamp-mcp`** is a standalone, zero-dependency **Open-Source Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server & CLI** (`index.mjs` + `local_engine.mjs`) implementing **9 deterministic B2B FinOps, Stripe `2025-03-31.basil`, Visa CE 3.0, EU/XI VIES VAT, Shopify Plus B2B Net-15/30/60, and Webhook Security tools** in pure Node.js.

- **100% Local In-Process Execution (Default — Zero Network / Zero API Key Required):** All 9 MCP tools (`initialize`, `tools/list`, and `tools/call`) execute locally in-process inside [`local_engine.mjs`](./local_engine.mjs) using pure Node.js (`node:crypto` HMAC-SHA256 verification, integer-cent double-entry accounting, 72-hour webhook replay state machines, and `18,000` UTF-16 code unit CE 3.0 linting). Zero network calls are ever made unless `REVCLAMP_API_KEY` or `REVCLAMP_MCP_URL` is explicitly configured.
- **Optional Hosted Cloud Workspace Sync (`REVCLAMP_API_KEY`):** When `REVCLAMP_API_KEY` (`rg_live_...`) is configured, `revclamp-mcp` connects to [**RevClamp Enterprise**](https://revclamp.com) (`https://api.revclamp.com/api/mcp`) to unlock the **90-day durable transactional usage & audit ledger**, **24/7 autonomous Stripe dispute & entitlement webhook outbox**, and **real-time EU Commission VIES SOAP gateway consultation numbers**.
- **Flat-JSON REST, OpenAPI 3.0.3 & RapidAPI Hub Gateway (Clay.com / n8n / Make.com):** In addition to MCP stdio/HTTP, all 9 deterministic tools plus **B2B Domain Tech Stack & Payment Rail Intelligence** (`POST /api/v1/b2b/domain-intelligence`) are available as flat-JSON REST endpoints via [`https://revclamp.com/openapi.json`](https://revclamp.com/openapi.json), [`https://revclamp.com/api/v1/integrations/templates`](https://revclamp.com/api/v1/integrations/templates), and the [**RapidAPI Hub Gateway**](https://rapidapi.com/lhphong09t2/api/revclamp-b2b-revenue-and-compliance-api).

## Local Open-Core (`local_engine.mjs`) vs. Hosted Cloud (`REVCLAMP_API_KEY`)

| Capability | Local Open-Core Default (Zero API Key) | Hosted Cloud (`REVCLAMP_API_KEY`) |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| **Execution & Network** | 100% in-process (`local_engine.mjs`), zero network calls | HTTPS JSON-RPC to `https://api.revclamp.com/api/mcp` (`redirect: "error"`) |
| **Usage & Audit Storage** | Stateless evaluation of caller-supplied JSON snapshots | **Persistent 90-day durable transactional ledger** + Stripe historical backfill |
| **Dispute & Entitlement Action** | Returns non-destructive `submit: false` draft & `revoke_entitlement` decision | **24/7 autonomous Stripe webhook outbox** (`disputes.update` & signed revoke webhooks) |
| **EU & `XI` B2B VAT (`VIES`)** | Deterministic syntax & `GR -> EL` normalization (`FORMAT_ONLY` default, `valid: null`) | **Live EU Commission VIES SOAP consultation IDs** + circuit-breaker retry queue (`viesMode: "LIVE"` + `REVCLAMP_API_KEY`) |
| **Monthly Event Tiers** | Unlimited local in-process evaluations (0 network cost) | **Free Sandbox** (`5,000` events/mo) · **Starter $19/mo** (`100k`) · **Growth $59/mo** (`1M`) · **Scale $199/mo** (`5M`) |
| **Data Minimization & Privacy** | Nothing ever leaves your machine | Only explicit `tools/call` arguments are sent over TLS after local live-secret scrubbing (blocks `sk_live_`, non-test `whsec_`, and `shpat_` locally before any network request) |

## Open-Source MCP Tools Implemented in `local_engine.mjs` (9)

| Tool Name | Domain | Local In-Process Implementation (`local_engine.mjs`) | Execution Mode |
| :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: |

## Quick Start (Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf)

Add `revclamp-mcp` to your `claude_desktop_config.json` or `.cursor/mcp.json`. By default, `revclamp-mcp` runs **100% locally in-process** with zero network calls and zero API keys required:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "revclamp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "github:lhphong09t2/revclamp-mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

*(Optional)* To connect to a live workspace on [`https://revclamp.com/dashboard`](https://revclamp.com/dashboard), pass `REVCLAMP_API_KEY` in `env` or use the hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint (`POST https://api.revclamp.com/api/mcp`):

```bash
curl -sS -X POST https://api.revclamp.com/api/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list","params":{}}'
```

### Continuous Daily Hiring Diff Monitoring (`search_ats_job_postings` / `resolve_company_ats_board` + `/api/v1/b2b/ats-watchlist` + `n8n-nodes-revclamp`)

- **Point-in-Time Discovery (`search_ats_job_postings` & `resolve_company_ats_board` in `@revclamp/unified-ats-jobs-mcp` / `POST /api/v1/b2b/ats-jobs`):** Resolves any company domain or career page URL across Greenhouse, Ashby, Lever, SmartRecruiters, and Workday into normalized job postings and hiring velocity metrics.
- **Stateful Daily Diff Watchlist (`/api/v1/b2b/ats-watchlist`):** Pairs with `search_ats_job_postings` and `resolve_company_ats_board` to persist canonical board snapshots (50-to-1 deduplicated upstream polling) and emit structured daily `JOB_OPENED`, `COMPENSATION_UPDATED`, and `JOB_CLOSED` diffs via `/api/v1/b2b/ats-watchlist/preview-diff`, `/api/v1/b2b/ats-watchlist/sync`, and `/api/v1/b2b/ats-watchlist/events`. Try the interactive browser sandbox at [`https://revclamp.com/tools/ats-hiring-watchlist`](https://revclamp.com/tools/ats-hiring-watchlist).
- **Official n8n Community Nodes (`n8n-nodes-revclamp`):** Install `n8n-nodes-revclamp` (`RevClampHiringWatchlist` Action node + `RevClampHiringWatchlistTrigger` Polling Trigger node) to trigger automated outbound, recruiting, and CRM enrichment workflows whenever target accounts open new roles or raise salary bands.

## Security & Resource Bounds

- **Local-First Deterministic Execution:** Runs all 9 tools locally in-process inside `local_engine.mjs` with zero external npm dependencies.
- **Strict Origin Pinning (Cloud Mode):** When `REVCLAMP_API_KEY` is provided, only connects to `https://api.revclamp.com/api/mcp` or `https://revclamp.com/api/mcp` over TLS (`redirect: "error"`).
- **Bounded Execution:** Enforces a hard `10,000ms` request timeout (`AbortSignal.timeout`) and a `32,768`-byte request/response payload cap.
- **Full LLM Reference:** [`https://revclamp.com/llms-full.txt`](https://revclamp.com/llms-full.txt)
