Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http ryecentral-consensus \
  https://ryecentral-wtb.silent-sky-6573.workers.dev/wtb/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY"

Any client that only takes a URL: append the key as a query parameter, .../wtb/mcp?key=YOUR_KEY. The server also accepts an X-RyeCentral-Key header.

How the score works

• Sources: independent, publicly published ratings and reviews (scored ratings, expert tasting notes, retailer and community reviews), filtered for fakes, promotion and paid tastings. One site counts once. See Which sources count.
• Score: weighted for sample size and source quality. A score moves only when a new reading differs by 0.1 or more.
• Confidence: a composite out of 100 built from six factors: distinct sources, source strength, rating volume, agreement, stability between readings, and how well-sourced the flavor profile is. It is a rating of evidence, not a statistical confidence interval.

Full method: RyeCentral review methodology. Every bottle, ranked: the RyeCentral Consensus Index.
