What your AI can do with referencesource.org
Real prompts you can type the moment it's connected — no setup, no docs to read.
“Use “list_datasets”: What reference datasets are available? Lists every published dataset with its title, record count, last-verified date and a one-sentence sum.”
“Use “search_records”: Look up a specific record — search by state name, chemical, certificate number, product name or any keyword. Searches one dataset's records.”
“Use “get_record”: Fetch one record by id — for example, look up a FIPS 140 certificate's status, a state's boiler inspection rules, or a county's loan limit.”
“Use “verify_quote”: Is this value actually right? Check a claimed fact against a published record instead of trusting it. Reports whether the claim matches the.”
How secure is the referencesource.org MCP server?
Every server in the gate directory has to pass the same four checks before your AI can touch it. Here's how referencesource.org holds up.
Official endpoint
Operated by referencesource.org (referencesource.org) at its documented MCP endpoint — not a third-party mirror or community re-host.
No sign-in needed
This server only exposes public data — no account and no credentials are involved when you connect.
Scanned before it goes live
gate checks every tool for prompt injection, hidden instructions, data-exfiltration hints, and over-broad permissions before the server is available through your gateway.
Watched for drift
If referencesource.org adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.

https://referencesource.org/mcpQuestions, answered
Is there an official referencesource.org MCP server?
Yes — referencesource.org operates its own remote MCP server at referencesource.org. gate connects you to that official endpoint and adds security scanning, per-tool access rules, and an activity log on top.
How do I connect referencesource.org to Claude or ChatGPT?
Add gate's gateway URL to your AI client once, then pick referencesource.org in the directory. No account or sign-in is needed. From then on, referencesource.org's tools are available in every client you've connected to gate.
Do I need to host anything?
No. referencesource.org runs the server, and gate is fully managed. You just connect one URL — there's nothing to install, deploy, or maintain.
Is the referencesource.org MCP server safe to connect?
It's the vendor's official endpoint, and gate scans its tools for prompt injection and hidden instructions before it goes live, re-checks it whenever it changes, and lets you allow, block, or require approval for every single tool.
Is it free?
