Open Primitive Mcp
17 US federal data domains as MCP tools. FDA drugs, EPA water, CMS hospitals, NHTSA cars, BLS jobs, Census demographics, SEC filings, NOAA weather, and more. Signed responses with provenance
Overview
Open Primitive Protocol (OPP)
The data layer of the agent internet.
OPP defines how data providers make their data agent-consumable, verifiable, and discoverable. Three components: provider manifest, response envelope, query interface.
The Problem
Agents get data naked. No provenance. No freshness guarantee. No confidence score. No way to verify the source. The agent internet is missing its data envelope.
The Protocol
| Component | What it does |
|---|---|
Manifest (/.well-known/opp.json) | Declares what data a provider serves, how fresh it is, how to verify it |
| Response Envelope | Every response carries domain, source, freshness, confidence, citation, Ed25519 signature |
| Query Interface | Standardized HTTP GET endpoints with predictable parameters |
Conformance Levels
- Level 1 (Basic): Manifest + envelope with domain/source/freshness
- Level 2 (Cited): Level 1 + confidence scores + citations
- Level 3 (Verified): Level 2 + Ed25519 cryptographic proof
Reference Implementation
Live at api.openprimitive.com. 16 US federal data domains across 11 agencies. Level 3 compliant — every response is signed.
curl https://api.openprimitive.com/v1/drugs?name=aspirin
# Returns OPP envelope with proof.type: "DataIntegrityProof"
Quick Start
Use data from an OPP provider:
const res = await fetch('https://api.openprimitive.com/v1/drugs?name=aspirin');
const data = await res.json();
console.log(data.citations.statement);
// "According to FDA FAERS, aspirin has 601,477 reported adverse events"
Implement OPP for your own data:
// 1. Create /.well-known/opp.json (see spec)
// 2. Wrap responses in the OPP envelope
// 3. Optionally sign with Ed25519
