What it exposes

Published company profiles, category metadata, editorial patterns, public profile URLs, website URLs, public funding fields when present, and public open jobs when available.

What stays private

  • Admin company management data
  • Auth profiles, sessions, or private user data
  • Submissions or submitter contact details
  • Raw source records, job payloads, agent runs, and automation logs
  • Supabase keys, service-role keys, cron secrets, or agent write secrets
  • Ask Atlas LLM calls or private prompt context

Run locally

Connect Claude, Codex, or another MCP client.

The server uses stdio transport and needs no new secrets. In MCP client configs, use silent npm mode so stdout remains valid JSON-RPC.
