Anti-Bullshit MCP Server
A Model Context Protocol server for analyzing claims, validating sources, and detecting manipulation using multiple epistemological frameworks.

- Validates source credibility
-
Harmonic Framework

- Integrates multiple perspectives
- Considers contextual appropriateness
- Evaluates systemic implications
-
Pluralistic Framework
- Combines all other frameworks
- Considers multiple ways of knowing
- Evaluates contextual appropriateness
- Assesses practical outcomes
- Checks alignment with community values
2. validate_sources
- Extracts and analyzes cited sources
- Validates credibility and authority
- Cross-references across multiple platforms
- Evaluates methodological soundness
- Checks for conflicts of interest
3. check_manipulation
Detects manipulation tactics including:
- Emotional manipulation
