The io.github.unempyd/revenueos MCP server provides a self-hosted revenue department workflow. Its description indicates it supports finding opportunities, executing approved work, and measuring results, using local infrastructure rather than an external service.
RevenueOS โ connect once, everything runs free, pay when you agree with the result
RevenueOS
A revenue department for one business. It reads your website, ads, leads and mailbox,
turns what it finds into a short list of actions, does the ones you approve, and measures
what changed.
Connect once. Everything runs free. Pay when you agree with the result.
Free forever to run by hand, including the web panel. Running continuously on a schedule is
$99/month, and only after it has measured a result you agreed with, plus 14 days.
No account, and nothing is kept: the demo builds a workspace in a temporary directory and
deletes it before it exits. It is not offline, though. The pages it reads go to whichever
model you have configured, and only --no-llm keeps the run entirely local. Here is the
whole output on a neutral domain, verbatim:
code
RevenueOS demo โ Example Domain (https://example.com)
1 pages crawled ยท ad/analytics tags: none ยท booking link: no ยท phones: none seen
1. MISSING DESCRIPTION โ https://example.com
Page has no meta description.
โ RevenueOS writes the fix as a deliverable you approve, then re-checks the page.
2. THIN PAGE โ https://example.com
Only ~127 characters of body text were extracted.
โ RevenueOS writes the fix as a deliverable you approve, then re-checks the page.
3. NO SITEMAP โ https://example.com
No sitemap.xml was discovered at the host root or under the site path.
โ RevenueOS writes the fix as a deliverable you approve, then re-checks the page.
4. NO CANONICAL โ https://example.com
The homepage declares no canonical URL.
โ RevenueOS deploys this fix itself once the site is connected (git or WordPress), then re-checks it.
4 finding(s). Everything above runs free, every day, once connected:
pip install revenueos && revenueos init --from https://example.com && revenueos serve
You pay only when you agree with a measured result.
On a real business the same command also reads the homepage for tappable phone numbers,
LocalBusiness schema, booking links and ad tags (Meta Pixel, Google Ads, GA4).
To run it from CI instead, add one step and read the job summary:
revenueos init --from https://yoursite.com # the site fills the questionnaire; every inference is labelled
revenueos serve # TODAY / RESULTS / Connections / Spend on http://127.0.0.1:8791
A connection is an account you authorise once: Stripe, Google (Search Console, GA4,
Calendar, Ads), Meta Ads, a git-hosted site, WordPress. Every connection is read-only until
you turn on allow changes for it, and every change still waits for your approval on
TODAY. See docs/integrations.md.
How it works
Accounts you connect once feed workers that only read; workers write actions to the store; the CLI, control panel and MCP present them; your approval is the only door to the executors, the only things that write back to your accounts, and measure re-reads the live account
Four rules hold that picture together, each enforced in code and covered by tests:
Workers never send, publish or spend. They only write actions.
Only an approved action reaches an executor, and an executor that changes a connected
account also needs that connection's allow changes switch. It refuses in a plain
sentence otherwise.
An outcome is pending until there is evidence, measured or no_effect from evidence,
and unmeasurable with a note saying what would measure it. No metric is ever synthesised.
A deliverable that was produced but not published is reported as produced, never as a win.
A real run of the control panel: Connect, Discover, Analyse and Measure light up as the checks complete, Approve and Execute stay dark, and the log ends: Done โ 1 new opportunity waiting for your decision
RevenueOS TODAY: opportunities found for the connected business, each with Approve, Execute and Ignore
The run above and the brief below are from a live run against a real company's public web
presence, read-only, with no email sent to anyone. Nothing in them is mocked.
Workers
Worker
Discovers
Executes (after approval)
Measures
seo
crawl defects, authority gap, indexing surface
the matching SEO skill, or site_deploy when the site is connected
re-crawl: fixed or not
ads-audit
waste, over-pacing and concentration in ad exports; search terms that spend, convert nothing and are not excluded; then the full control audit (414 controls across 12 platforms, 97 Google and 72 Meta) under the upstream runtime contract, pass or fail only with evidence
the matching ads skill
next export delta; the next search-term read; a failing control re-checked by the next audit
ads-live
the same on connected Google Ads and Meta accounts, with keywords, quality scores, search terms and negative-keyword lists
Stripe revenue, MRR, customers, open invoices, paying subscriptions
send_invoice
Stripe paid status
discover
prospects from lead lists or an external prospecting service, through the qualification gate (business email, business website, real company name; reported as found ยท contactable ยท qualified)
none
via outreach
outreach
first-touch drafts from your business canon, re-verified against the live page before sending
sends, under a daily cap, a suppression list and an unsubscribe footer
replies, booked, pipeline value
inbox
replies, bounces and STOP requests on your mailbox
none
feeds outreach outcomes
intake
your own documents, dropped into data/inbox/documents/: PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, CSV and RTF read entirely on your machine, tables kept as rows; with a model, where a document contradicts or fills a gap in your business canon
records the proposed correction in learning-loop/CORRECTIONS.md, which every worker prompt then reads โ company-context/ is never edited by a worker
none directly: a canon correction shows up in the work it changes, and is recorded as unmeasurable with that note
content
content work matched to your channels; a short video brief when one of your channels is a video channel
the deliverable, then publish_post to WordPress after a second approval; render_video renders the approved brief to MP4/WebM in data/outputs/
published 0 โ 1 on the live URL; a rendered video is produced (not published)
monitor
Hacker News threads that pass a default-reject relevance gate
none
none
growth
external adoption numbers for your own surfaces: GitHub traffic, PyPI downloads, site reachability
none
recorded as metrics with a delta
heartbeat
the state of your objective: what is pending, approved but not run, measured, failed or blocked
none

revenueos orchestrator runs the workers on a schedule (data/automations.json).
revenueos serve is the same surface as a web panel, with password sessions, onboarding,
the brief and the results ledger.
What is proven, and what is not
That table says what the code does, which is not the same as what has been watched doing it.
The evidence is uneven, and it is worth knowing which row you are relying on. Dates and
transcripts: docs/proof.md and docs/integrations.md.
Path
Status
Evidence
Site fix deployed and measured
run live
site_deploy pushed two commits to the live site; the page carried both tags within 20 s; canonical_present 0 โ 1 and local_schema_present 0 โ 1 (2026-09-13)
Content deliverable
run live
a real crawl of a real company, one opportunity approved, the skill executed, deliverable_written 0 โ 1 (2026-09-12)
Stripe
read live
live account: 0 customers, MRR 0.00 AUD, revenue 30 days 0.00 AUD; an invoice draft created and deleted; the same call refused while allow changes was off
Google Search Console
read live
property verified, then revenueos run analytics returned 0 clicks and 0 impressions over 28 days (2026-09-13)
Mailbox
run live
inbox read a live IMAP mailbox; book_call sent a real calendar invite. No outreach email has been sent to anyone
Hosted, multi-tenant
run live
two accounts on one host, each bound to its own workspace; 401 without a login or with a wrong password
Google Ads and Meta Ads reads
not proven live
every request shape is exercised against mocked endpoints only. Two things gate a live Google Ads run, neither of them code: the adwords scope is not requested by default (revenueos connect google --scopes identity,searchconsole.read,analytics.read,calendar.write,ads.read asks for it), and a developer token is issued from the API Centre of a Google Ads manager account. ads-live refuses by naming the missing prerequisite instead of surfacing a 401. ads-audit on exported CSVs is a different and simpler path
GA4
not read
no GA4 property is configured on the site under test
RevenueOS has 0 customers and $0 in revenue. The rows above are the product doing work
and recording it, not a business result anyone has paid for. Every number RevenueOS reports
is something it observed. Where it cannot observe an effect, it says so instead of
estimating one.
Approval, permissions and honesty
Workers only look and propose. execute on an approved action is the single choke point,
whether it was triggered from the CLI, the panel or MCP. The one path that can mail a
stranger is bounded by a daily send cap, a persistent suppression list, a List-Unsubscribe
header, reply-STOP handling and a CASL identification footer. REVENUEOS_DRY_RUN=1 writes
every send to data/outputs/ instead of SMTP.
Credentials split in two, and the difference matters:
From the environment, never stored. Model keys, the mailbox passwords
(SMTP_PASSWORD, IMAP_PASSWORD), the panel password, the worker token and the connector
keys are read from the process environment and are never written into the workspace.
Stored on disk, because they have to outlive the process. A connection's secrets are
written to data/connections.json at mode 600: a Stripe secret key, Google and Meta OAuth
access and refresh tokens, a WordPress application password. They are encrypted at rest
only when you set REVENUEOS_TOKEN_KEY. Without that variable they are plaintext in that
file, readable by anything that can read it, including a backup or a sync client. Set it,
or accept that. What bounds the damage is the provider's scopes and the allow-changes
switch, which is off until you turn it on.
The panel refuses to bind a non-loopback address without a password. There is no telemetry
and no phone-home. Prompts carry a selected slice of your business canon plus the one item
being worked on, never the whole canon or the database. See
docs/security-and-approval.md and SECURITY.md.
Pay when you agree with the result
Community is free, MIT-licensed, and is the whole product: every worker, the control
panel, the connections and executors, the capability catalogue (13 packs, 790 skills, 104
agent definitions, 64 connector CLIs), the MCP server and the Claude Code plugin. It is not
a trial, and no clock starts before you have seen a result.
Everything runs free, including continuous operation, until RevenueOS has measured a result
on an action you approved. Then it keeps running free for 14 more days. After that one thing
asks for Pro ($99/month): revenueos orchestrator running continuously. One-shot runs,
every worker and the panel never lock. A licence key is Ed25519-signed and verified offline;
a missing, expired or unsigned key fails closed to Community.
That licence check is the only thing the software gates. Business and Agency ($299 and
$999 per month) are the arrangement under which we run and support RevenueOS for you, not a
larger feature set: multi-brand workspaces, multiple users, CRM sync, centralised analytics,
client fleets, white-label reports and an API do not exist, and nothing in this repository
gates them. Ask before paying for those. Full breakdown:
docs/community-vs-hosted.md.
Install
bash
pip install revenueos # or: uv tool install revenueos
revenueos init --from https://yoursite.com # or `revenueos init` for the questionnaire
revenueos run all # every worker once
revenueos today # the brief
revenueos approve 1 && revenueos execute 1
revenueos run measure && revenueos results
revenueos serve # the same surface as a web panel
Or run the published image, no Python toolchain needed:
bash
docker run --rm -v "$PWD/data:/app/data" ghcr.io/unempyd/revenueos:latest revenueos doctor
docker compose pull && docker compose up orchestrator panel # always-on, panel on 127.0.0.1:8791
From source:
bash
git clone https://github.com/unempyd/revenueos && cd revenueos
uv sync && (cd orchestrator && npm install)
uv run revenueos init
Requirements: Python 3.12+, and Node 20+ for the scheduler and the connector CLIs.
An LLM is used if one is present. RevenueOS tries them in order and moves to the next one by
itself when a provider is rate limited, overloaded or unreachable: ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, then a
signed-in Claude Code CLI, then any OpenAI-compatible endpoint you point it at with
REVENUEOS_LLM_BASE_URL + REVENUEOS_LLM_MODEL. revenueos doctor shows the order and which
ends are reachable. Without any of them, the deterministic half still runs: the site crawl and its findings, the
ad-export waste, pacing and concentration checks, search-term waste, lead qualification,
inbox replies and bounces, templated outreach drafts, content matching, and all measurement.
Four things do need a model, and say so rather than pretending: executing any action whose
executor runs a skill (the SEO, content and ads deliverables), the 414-control ads audit,
the relevance gate in monitor, and the specialist roles. Site deploys, campaign pauses,
invoices, bookings and email sends need no model.
It keeps working between sessions
RevenueOS holds an objective for the business (revenueos objective add "โฆ", the last
onboarding question, or a MANDATE.md at the workspace root). A heartbeat worker,
scheduled every 30 minutes, reads the state of that objective: what is pending, what was
approved and not run, what was measured, what failed and why, what is blocked and what would
unblock it. It writes one dated event per run, sets the next action, and leaves a message
for you only when a human is needed (revenueos messages, or the inbox block on TODAY).
Nothing in it sends, publishes or spends.
Specialist roles (revenueos agent run research|marketing|sales|measurement "<task>")
answer one question each with cited evidence, may spawn sub-tasks two levels deep, and can
only propose actions, which land on TODAY like any other. Every measured outcome becomes a
dated lesson (revenueos learn, learning-loop/LESSONS.md) that is injected into later
prompts. All of this works without a model except the roles, which then say so instead of
answering.
Integrations
Website crawl, Hacker News, ad-platform exports (CSV), lead-list CSVs, SMTP and IMAP
mailboxes, the connections listed above, 64 connector CLIs (analytics, CRM, email, SEO, ads,
enrichment) keyed by environment variables, and an optional external prospecting service.
See docs/integrations.md.
MCP server
uvx --from "revenueos[mcp]" revenueos-mcp runs RevenueOS as an MCP server over stdio for
Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cline, or another MCP host โ 12 tools over the same workers as
the CLI. llms-install.md is the minimum an agent needs to set it up with
no local clone; mcp/README.md is the full reference.
Deployment
Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml (orchestrator, panel, optional TLS proxy) and deploy/
(runbook, Fly.io, Railway, smoke test). See deploy/README.md.
Develop
bash
uv sync --extra dev --extra mcp && uv run pytest -q # runs green
(cd orchestrator && npm test && npm run typecheck)
uv run ruff check src tests
RevenueOS is an assembly, not a fresh codebase. Most capability is vendored from pinned
upstream repositories, and the code in src/revenueos/ is the glue: business context,
store, orchestration, approval surface, measurement and billing. Do not edit anything under
src/revenueos/vendor/, skills/, agents/ or tools/; those are regenerated by
scripts/vendor.py. See CONTRIBUTING.md.
RevenueOS is self-hosted software, not a service. You run it on your own machine or
server. The RevenueOS project operates no backend, receives no copy of your data and has no
way to reach your workspace. There is no telemetry, no usage reporting, no crash reporting
and no analytics of any kind. Nothing in the product ever calls a RevenueOS-operated host:
licences are HMAC-signed keys verified locally by billing.py, so even licensing contacts
no server. (Verified by enumerating every outbound host literal and every network primitive
โ httpx, urllib, socket, smtplib, imaplib, subprocess โ in the shipped tree,
src/revenueos/ included, on 2026-09-14.)

What is stored, and where โ all of it on your disk, none of it anywhere else:company-context/ (the business canon, plain Markdown), revenueos.yaml (site,
competitors, channels, sender identity, SMTP/IMAP host and user โ passwords are read from
the environment, never written to the file), data/revenueos.db (SQLite: actions, leads and
their contact details, email drafts and sends, replies, outcomes, metrics, documents),
data/exports/ (the CSVs you drop), data/outputs/, data/reports/, data/documents/,
logs/, and learning-loop/CORRECTIONS.md. Credentials for connected accounts live in
data/connections.json at mode 0600, in plaintext unless you set REVENUEOS_TOKEN_KEY,
which seals them with Fernet. In hosted mode accounts.json (also 0600) holds an email and
a PBKDF2-HMAC-SHA256 password hash at 200,000 rounds.
Documents you drop into data/inbox/documents/ are parsed entirely in-process by
pure-Python libraries (intake.py): no upload, no conversion service, no external binary.
The file itself never leaves the machine. Only the extracted text is sent to your model
provider, and only when a credential is configured. The intake worker never edits
company-context/ โ it queues a correction action for you to approve.
What you are responsible for as the operator: you are the data controller. That includes
the lawful basis for contacting the prospects you import, honouring opt-outs (RevenueOS keeps
a suppression list and appends a CASL footer, but the obligation is yours), securing the host
and the workspace directory, setting REVENUEOS_TOKEN_KEY if data/connections.json matters
to you, and your model provider's own terms for the content you send it.
Deleting data means deleting files: remove the workspace directory, or individual files
under data/. revenueos disconnect <provider> erases that provider's stored tokens. Keep
the unsubscribes table โ dropping it would let outreach re-contact someone who asked you to
stop.
The marketing site (website/, published at
https://unempyd.github.io/revenueos/) is static: no analytics script, no cookies, no
browser storage, no third-party requests. GitHub Pages serves it and keeps its own logs.
