Unified Activity Reporting MCP Server

🎯 Overview

A unified MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that enables both Google Developer Experts (GDEs) and Microsoft MVPs to report their activities through AI-powered conversational interfaces.

Stop the boring manual data entry! Just talk to Claude and submit your activities naturally - whether it’s a YouTube video, blog post, conference talk, or mentoring session.

Supported Programs

• ✅ Microsoft MVP - Direct API integration with the MVP portal
• ✅ Google GDE - Integration with Advocu API
• 🔧 Both at once - If you’re both an MVP and GDE, use one tool for everything!
