What your AI can do with Ruthven
Real prompts you can type the moment it's connected — no setup, no docs to read.
“Use “ruthven_get_asset”: The universal RUTHVEN asset record: identity, tokenization, provenance, source works, components, construction sequence, hashes, documents,.”
“Use “ruthven_list_evidence”: The evidence records behind an asset, each with a stable evidence_id, its source (document, locator, ipfs uri, gateway url, ledger claim id).”
“Use “ruthven_get_evidence”: Retrieve the source record behind a stable evidence id (EVID-…) or an unknown id (UNK-…): where it was read from, its hash, its state, and h.”
“Use “ruthven_get_provenance”: Provenance and lineage: the timeline, source works, generated elements, components, the construction sequence, relationships, chain identity.”
How secure is the Ruthven MCP server?
Every server in the gate directory has to pass the same four checks before your AI can touch it. Here's how Ruthven holds up.
Official endpoint
Operated by Ruthven (ruthven.ai) 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 Ruthven adds or changes tools later, gate re-scans and alerts you — before your AI acts on the change.
Connected in three steps
Connect your gate
Add one gateway URL to Claude, ChatGPT, or any MCP client. One-time setup, about two minutes.
Pick Ruthven
Choose Ruthven in the gate directory. No sign-in needed.
Use it anywhere
Ruthven's tools are live in every AI client you've connected — with rules and logging built in.

https://ruthven.ai/api/ruthven/mcpQuestions, answered
Is there an official Ruthven MCP server?
Yes — Ruthven operates its own remote MCP server at ruthven.ai. 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 Ruthven to Claude or ChatGPT?
Add gate's gateway URL to your AI client once, then pick Ruthven in the directory. No account or sign-in is needed. From then on, Ruthven's tools are available in every client you've connected to gate.
Do I need to host anything?
No. Ruthven runs the server, and gate is fully managed. You just connect one URL — there's nothing to install, deploy, or maintain.
Is the Ruthven 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?
Yes — you can get started with gate for free and connect Ruthven in minutes. No credit card required.
