OpenAI Responses API

Use this request body with your normal OpenAI API authentication. Replace the question before sending. The MCP authorization value is a random, non-personal installation token used only for privacy-safe attribution; it does not grant access. The request limits the MCP surface and forces one real search_official_docs call. OpenAI model usage may incur charges, while 404.directory itself currently requires no account or API key.

Complete the first useful call

If your client exposes MCP Prompts, open research-official-docs, verify-public-deployment, or evaluate-agent-tool and provide a real task.

Ask your Agent:
Use search_official_docs to find the current official guidance for MCP Streamable HTTP. Cite the first-party sources and distinguish facts from inference.

Installation counts only after a non-error tool result. Connection checks, probes, and repeated calls do not count.

For the direct configurations above, this page generated agent:fa3f94d9-089f-49d1-87de-45fdbe1d6ea3 randomly; keep it stable for that installation. The npm bridge and Claude marketplace plugin create and preserve their own local random IDs. 404.directory stores only an HMAC digest after a successful tool call—never the raw ID, prompt, arguments, or result.
