Kortex · agents & MCP · the platform as tools, with the bill on every result

Built to be read by agents

Kortex serves AI agents as first-class clients: an MCP server over the full platform (not just the graph), the cost of every call returned on every result, receipts an agent can cite and replay, machine-readable grounding documents, and a developed error contract. Deterministic underneath; the agent gets the same governed, source-traceable answers a human analyst gets.

The cost contract

Every tool result is JSON with a cost block: what was billed, the category floor, the delivered-output value and the basis. Settlement is max(floor, delivered-output value) at the same field weights as REST, on every channel, so no path through the platform is a cheaper pipe for the same data. Provenance metadata is never billed. A hard 402 gate re-checks the actual cost before the payload is delivered; a blocked response bills nothing, and tool errors bill nothing.

{"data": {…}, "cost": {"billed_credits": 51000, "floor_credits": 50000,
  "delivered_value_credits": 51000, "basis": "max(category floor, delivered-output value)"},
 "receipt_id": "…"}   // when the payload carries a retrievable provenance receipt

A server-side billing-integrity watchdog audits value density on every response (payload size vs credits billed) and flags any route serving materially more than it charges; flagged routes are reviewed and repriced at source.

kortex://correctionsthe corrections register: every governance-driven change to a served number, before/after and reason (also RSS at /v2/corrections.rss, deltas via ?since=)

These exist so an agent grounds itself in Kortex's actual governance instead of guessing: what things cost, what errors mean, what the rights position is, where every number comes from.

Answers an agent can defend

Envelope-bearing results carry a receipt: the frozen canonical answer, graph snapshot id, software build and resolved sources, retrievable forever at GET /v2/receipts/{id} or via the kortex_get_receipt tool. An agent that cites a Kortex receipt is citing an artifact its principal can independently replay. Absence is disclosed (present=false), contradicted data is quarantined and documented, and there is no LLM in the stack: the same call returns the same answer.
