MarketNow

MarketNow — Trust Infrastructure for AI Agents

Repo ecosystem (one owner per concern, split 2026-09-26):

Repo	Sole owner of
alicelabs-llc/MARKETNOW (this repo)	Product code: mcp-server (npm marketnow-mcp), atc-sdk/atc-python/atc-rust, Docker/Cline/Cursor integrations, CLIs, security audits
eddyflores100-lang/marketnow	Live marketplace: site (aep-marketplace/), catalog data (_data/, skills/, public/api/), the 21 scheduled data pipelines, Vercel deploys of marketnow.site
alicelabs-llc/universal-trust-adapter	ATC/1.0 protocol: spec, adapters, reference implementation, plugins
alicelabs-llc/marketnow-submissions	Public skill submissions queue
alicelabs-llc/status	Live status page

Data and site questions go to the marketplace repo; protocol questions to UTA; everything else lives here.

MarketNow doesn't sell AI tools. It determines whether AI agents should be allowed to trust and execute them.

What is MarketNow?

MarketNow is trust infrastructure for AI agents: a hosted registry that verifies skills, credentials and domains across 68,388 indexed MCP servers (132,737 tracked across GitHub, npm and PyPI), with signed skill submissions, revocation checks and a 9-tool MCP API.

Every indexed entry is security-first scored. The MCP API is free — 68,387 of the 68,388 indexed servers are free to install (paid: 1 in the public stats API).

The 9 MCP tools (endpoint v1.15.0)

Endpoint tracks the npm train: v1.15.0 (2026-09-26 — repository-field repair → alicelabs-llc/MARKETNOW, npm ↔ endpoint lockstep); previously v1.14.1 (2026-09-20).

The MCP server exposes 9 tools, all under the marketnow_* namespace so Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, LangChain and LlamaIndex can disambiguate them at tool-choice time:

#	Tool	What it does
1	marketnow_verify_trust	Verify any AI-agent credential (JWT, W3C VC, MCP Card, ATC v3, A2A, EAT-AI, ZTA, X.509) through the UTA 12-stage verification pipeline
2	marketnow_translate_credential	Translate a credential between 8 formats (ATC v3, JWT, W3C VC, A2A, EAT-AI, ZTA, MCP Card, X.509) losslessly via the Universal Trust Schema
3	marketnow_list_formats	List the 8 supported credential formats with their algorithms and status
4	marketnow_get_pipeline	Get the 12-stage verification pipeline details
5	marketnow_check_domain	Scam checker: returns a domain risk score with reasons
6	marketnow_search_skills	Search the registry of indexed MCP servers (GitHub, npm, PyPI), security-first scored
7	marketnow_check_revocation	Check revocation of an Agent Trust Card or CA key against the signed Revocation Registry (MNR-CRL-1.0) + live ledger
8	marketnow_fingerprint_tool	Cryptographically fingerprint MCP tool definitions (OWASP MCP Cheat Sheet) with RFC 8785 JCS + SHA-256
9	marketnow_submit_skill	Publish a skill to the catalog: validated and Sentinel-scanned (injection patterns, embedded secrets, dangerous capabilities)

Tool contract: deterministic marketnow_ snake_case names · intent-oriented descriptions · strict JSON-Schema parameters · structured { content, isError } responses.

Quick start

Add to Cursor — 1 click (no terminal)

Connect any MCP client (Streamable HTTP)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "marketnow": {
      "url": "https://www.marketnow.site/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Run the MCP server

npx -y marketnow-mcp

Run it in Docker (audited repo tree, published by CI)

docker run -i --rm ghcr.io/alicelabs-llc/marketnow-mcp:1.15.0
# or register it in the Docker MCP Toolkit:
docker mcp gateway add --docker ghcr.io/alicelabs-llc/marketnow-mcp

Cline

Paste the ready block from integrations/cline/cline_mcp_settings.json into Cline → MCP Servers → Configure. The repo also ships .clinerules/ house rules. Guide: integrations/cline/README.md.

Cursor

Open this repo as your Cursor workspace — .cursor/mcp.json auto-registers the server, and .cursor/rules/marketnow.mdc teaches Cursor the house rules. Guide: integrations/cursor/README.md.

Verify an Agent Trust Card (ATC/1.3)

curl "https://www.marketnow.site/api/atc?action=ca-key"    # public CA key (Ed25519, RFC 8032)
curl "https://www.marketnow.site/api/atc?action=spec"      # ATC/1.3 specification

L1 index checks	10/10 passing
L2 Sentinel scans	2,839 of 2,868 npm tarballs
Credential formats	8 (ATC v3, JWT, W3C VC, A2A, EAT-AI, ZTA, MCP Card, X.509)

Source of truth: https://www.marketnow.site/api/stats.json — CI fails if any surface diverges.

Security model

Two levels:

• L1 — index certification: all 68,388 entries pass 10 metadata/security checks before being indexed.
• L2 — Sentinel scans: shipped npm tarballs are scanned (2,839 to date) for injection patterns, embedded secrets and dangerous capabilities. Skills that fail are quarantined and published in the transparency report.

Conformance
