This one needs environment variables set before it will start: THREE_WS_BASE (Base URL of the three.ws API that serves the agent-actions ledger. Override only when self-hosting or targeting a preview deployment.), THREE_WS_TIMEOUT_MS (Per-request timeout in milliseconds for the ledger reads/appends.), THREE_WS_TOKEN (Bearer token authenticating every call — a three.ws API key (sk_live_…) or an OAuth access token. The ledger is owner-scoped: you can read and append actions only for agents your token owns. Required for all three tools. Treat like a password.), THREE_WS_SIGNER_KEY (Optional 0x-prefixed EVM private key. When set, append_agent_action ERC-191-signs each action so anyone can ecrecover the signer and verify authorship on-chain. A per-call `signer_key` arg overrides it. Omit to append unsigned. Treat like cash.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

three.ws Provenance — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for three.ws Provenance?
three.ws Provenance runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @three-ws/provenance-mcp was installed 194 times last week.
How do I connect three.ws Provenance?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @three-ws/provenance-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use three.ws Provenance?
The npm package @three-ws/provenance-mcp was installed 194 times in the last week. Week over week that is +1119%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is three.ws Provenance open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in JavaScript and 194 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
