How It Works

AI Agent (Claude/ChatGPT/Cursor/...)
  ↕ stdio (MCP protocol)
Encrata MCP Server (this package)
  ↕ HTTPS (REST API)
Encrata API (encrata.com/api/agent/*)
  ↕ parallel enrichment
10+ data sources

The MCP server runs locally on your machine as a stdio process. It bridges your AI agent to the Encrata REST API using the Model Context Protocol. All enrichment happens server-side — no data sources or credentials needed locally.
