io.github.Postcept/mcp
Verify agent actions against the system of record and get signed completion receipts.
Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

@postcept/mcp
A Model Context Protocol server that exposes Postcept, outcome verification for AI agents, as MCP tools.
After an agent performs a high-risk action (a refund, a subscription
cancellation, a support-ticket resolution), it calls a verify_* tool to confirm
the action actually completed in the system of record (Stripe, Zendesk, and more)
and obtain a signed completion receipt. "done" becomes proof, not a claim.
The server is a thin wrapper over the live Postcept HTTP API. It holds no credentials of its own beyond your Postcept API key, and verification is read-only against your systems of record.
Configuration
| Variable | Required | Default | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
POSTCEPT_API_KEY | yes | none | A Postcept API key (pcpt_sk_...) with verifications:write. |
POSTCEPT_BASE_URL | no | https://api.postcept.com | Point at a self-hosted or staging API. |
Create an API key in the Postcept dashboard under API keys.
Use with Claude Desktop / Claude Code

Tools
| Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|
verify_refund | Verify a claimed refund (exists, amount/currency/customer match, not duplicated). |
verify_cancellation | Verify a subscription was actually cancelled. |
verify_ticket | Verify a support ticket is in the expected state. |
get_verification | Fetch a past verification and its signed receipt by id. |
reconcile_verification | Re-verify a past verification against the live system of record. |
verified_completion_rate | Read the organization's Verified Completion Rate. |
Every verify_* tool accepts test: true to run against the deterministic
sandbox connector (excluded from your Verified Completion Rate), so an agent can
exercise the full flow without a live system of record.
A non-verified result (incomplete, duplicated, mismatched,
policy_failed) means the work is not done. Surface the gap and recover.
Advisory, by design
MCP puts the verification call in the agent's hands, which makes it the right integration for development, demos, and workflows where the agent's judgment is already trusted. It is advisory: an agent can skip the call, pass the wrong identifiers, or ignore the answer.
For consequential actions, enforce the decision outside the agent. The workflow
or orchestrator calls the Postcept API (or the SDK's guard()) itself and
branches on safe_to_claim_complete before anything customer-facing happens.
The agent then receives the allowed outcome instead of deciding it. Both
patterns use the same API and the same receipts, what changes is who owns the
branch.

Frequently asked questions
What is io.github.Postcept/mcp?
Verify agent actions against the system of record and get signed completion receipts.
How do I install io.github.Postcept/mcp?
It runs on your machine. In Claude Code: claude mcp add io-github-postcept-mcp -e 'POSTCEPT_API_KEY=<your postcept_api_key>' -- npx -y @postcept/mcp@0.3.3. For other clients, paste the JSON configuration from this page into their MCP settings.
Does io.github.Postcept/mcp need an API key?
Yes. It expects POSTCEPT_API_KEY, which you set in its configuration.
Is io.github.Postcept/mcp open source?
Yes. Its code is on GitHub under the MIT license.
Who maintains io.github.Postcept/mcp?
It is published by Postcept. AI.tn lists it but does not maintain or endorse it.
From the official MCP Registry. Listing is not an endorsement: review a server's code and permissions before giving it access to your data.
