Agent infrastructure
An open standard from Anthropic for exposing tools and data to large-language-model hosts (Claude Desktop, Cursor, agentic frameworks). VC Deal Flow Signal ships a free MCP server — `npx @gitdealflow/mcp-signal` — that lets any MCP-compatible host call six read-only tools: get_trending_startups, get_signals_summary, get_methodology, get_startup_signal, search_startups_by_sector, get_methodology. The same surface is mirrored at /api/mcp/rpc (Streamable HTTP).
