Revised

Other clients

The four facts any MCP client needs about the Revised server, plus config for VS Code and opencode.

Any client that speaks Streamable HTTP can connect. There is nothing Revised-specific to install and no SDK — the whole configuration is a URL.

What to tell any client

URLhttps://getrevised.com/api/mcp
TransportStreamable HTTP. Not SSE, not stdio, and there is no local process to launch.
MethodPOST only. GET and DELETE answer 405 — there is no session to stream into or delete.
AuthNothing to configure for OAuth. Otherwise Authorization: Bearer rvd_....

If a client asks you to choose a transport, pick the HTTP one. If it offers only “command” or “stdio”, it cannot connect to this server.

Authentication without a config entry

The server answers an unauthenticated request with 401 and a WWW-Authenticate challenge naming its authorisation server. A client that implements OAuth 2.1 discovery reads that challenge, registers itself dynamically, opens a browser for the user to sign in, and keeps its own token. That is why the OAuth path needs no client id, no secret and no key in a file.

A client that does not implement discovery needs an API key from getrevised.com/account, sent as a bearer token. Keys are free on every plan.

VS Code

Workspace config goes in .vscode/mcp.json; for user-level config, run MCP: Open User Configuration from the command palette.

json
{
  "servers": {
    "revised": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://getrevised.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
json
{
  "servers": {
    "revised": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://getrevised.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer rvd_yourprefix_yoursecret"
      }
    }
  }
}

"type": "http" covers both HTTP Stream and SSE — VS Code tries HTTP first and falls back. This server only does the former, which is the one it tries first.

opencode

In opencode.json, under mcp:

json
{
  "mcp": {
    "revised": {
      "type": "remote",
      "url": "https://getrevised.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
json
{
  "mcp": {
    "revised": {
      "type": "remote",
      "url": "https://getrevised.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer rvd_yourprefix_yoursecret"
      }
    }
  }
}

"type": "remote" is the discriminator — "local" is for a process opencode launches itself.

Clients with their own page

Verify, whatever the client

Ask it:

What plan am I on with Revised?

It should call whoami and come back with your plan, the reveals left this month and your rate limit. If it answers from general knowledge instead of calling a tool, the server is not connected.

When it does not connect

What you seeWhat it means
401 with no browser promptThe client does not implement OAuth discovery. Send an API key instead.
405The client sent GET or DELETE — it is trying to open an SSE session. Point it at the HTTP transport.
insufficient_scopeAn OAuth token that predates a scope the tool needs. Disconnect and sign in again.
Tools listed but every call failsCheck the key has not been rotated, and check Rate limits — the counter is shared with REST.

More detail on the failure modes: MCP authentication.

Notes

  • Nine tools are exposed. reveal_domain is the only one that can spend; see Tools.
  • MCP calls and REST calls share one per-minute counter per key.
  • To set a client up without reading any of this, hand it the agent setup prompt.
