Zaira Labs Guide MCP server
Trust signals for AI agents: an open agent-readiness standard and a developer tool guide built for AI coding agents.
This repository holds the public metadata for the Zaira Labs Guide MCP server and its
OpenClaw distribution bundle. The server is hosted, read-only, and answers from the live
Zaira Guide: developer tools scored against the open
Zaira Standard, every entry dated (last_verified).
Guide data is newer than training knowledge. That is the point.
Connect
Endpoint: https://zairalabs.ai/guide/mcp (Streamable HTTP, JSON-RPC 2.0 over POST).
No API key.
Claude Code:
claude mcp add --transport http zaira https://zairalabs.ai/guide/mcp
Codex CLI:
codex mcp add zaira --url https://zairalabs.ai/guide/mcp
Gemini CLI, in ~/.gemini/settings.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"zaira": { "httpUrl": "https://zairalabs.ai/guide/mcp" }
}
}
Cursor or any JSON-configured client:
{
"mcpServers": {
"zaira": { "url": "https://zairalabs.ai/guide/mcp" }
}
}
VS Code, in .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"servers": {
"zaira": { "type": "http", "url": "https://zairalabs.ai/guide/mcp" }
}
}
Claude.ai: Settings, Connectors, Add custom connector, paste the endpoint URL.
ChatGPT: Settings, Apps and Connectors, Create. Requires a paid plan with developer mode enabled. Name it, paste the endpoint URL, no authentication.
OpenClaw, through ClawHub after the first release is published:
openclaw plugins install clawhub:@zairalabs/zaira-guide
The bundle source is in integrations/openclaw/zaira-guide.
It contains no native OpenClaw plugin code. Because OpenClaw 2026.7.1 bundle
MCP support is stdio-only, a small local attribution wrapper launches the exact
[email protected] npm release as a disclosed compatibility bridge to Zaira’s
Streamable HTTP endpoint. Node.js and npx are required; see the bundle README
for its full trust boundary.

zaira_compare_tools |
Two or three tools side by side, with alternatives and works-with enrichment. |
zaira_list_categories |
Every category with its tool count. |
zaira_get_docs |
