@settlegrid/discovery

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets AI agents discover monetized tools on the SettleGrid marketplace. Instead of hard-coding tool URLs or relying on third-party directories, agents connect to this server and search, browse, and inspect tools programmatically — making SettleGrid the canonical discovery layer for the AI economy.

npm install -g @settlegrid/discovery
