MOTE Registry MCP Server

Search the MOTE AI agent registry — find businesses that are machine-readable and ready for agent commerce.

MOTE gives businesses a permanent decentralised identity (DID) on Sui blockchain and submits them to major AI agent registries so autonomous AI agents can discover and transact with them.

Example queries

Once installed, you can ask your AI assistant:

• "Find me a florist in Austin under $75"
• "What restaurants are in the MOTE registry?"
• "Show me the full profile for tulum-beachfront-suites"
• "What categories of businesses are available?"
• "Search for web designers in New York"

How it works

The MCP server calls the live MOTE API at https://mote-api-production.up.railway.app/v1/merchants. No API key required — the merchant registry is public.

Each merchant in MOTE has:

• A DID (decentralised identifier) on Sui blockchain
• Machine-readable manifests (llms.txt, MPP, x402)
• Reputation scores from on-chain settlement records
• Contact and delivery information
