Event Intelligence

Build the Year MCP

The public reference for governed resources, analysis, portfolio intelligence, and human-controlled proposals across the Event Operating Layer.

Answer

What is the Build the Year MCP?

Build the Year MCP is the governed interface to event-led revenue intelligence. Reads share the product ledger used by ei. Governed writes stop at preview or propose; a human must approve and commit every change.

One governed path from ledger to agent

Governed Ledger → btyCoreReadService → MCP → ei and external agents. Every surface shares the same public capability catalog while live reads remain authenticated and scoped.

Read the contract before the capability

Job

The event-leader outcome the capability advances.

Output type

Deterministic, heuristic, associative, scenario, or resource.

Write contract

Read-only, or preview/propose with human approval and commit.

Governance

The policy, confidence, and provenance context that travels with an answer.

Scope

Whether the capability stays inside the active Chapter or is org-global.

Role

The minimum existing Build the Year role that may use the capability.

Do not

The explicit boundary an agent must not cross.

Governed capability catalog

Search and filter 46 public capability contracts. Every card remains in the page markup for crawlers and no-JavaScript readers.

Lookups and resources

Governed ledger context and reference objects that agents can read.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Build the Year MCP?

The Build the Year MCP is a governed Model Context Protocol interface to event-led revenue intelligence. It gives ei and external agents the same catalog of ledger resources, analysis tools, and controlled proposal actions.

Can an agent change committed capacity?

No. Scenario outputs are previews, and governed write tools stop at preview or propose. MCP cannot approve, commit, apply a scenario, or directly change committed capacity.

What does a governance envelope include?

Governed outputs carry the applicable confidence state, policy context, provenance, scope, and role boundary so a person can judge both the answer and the evidence behind it.

How are ei and MCP different?

ei is the in-app Event Intelligence experience. MCP is the governed interface used by ei and compatible external agents. Both use the same capability contract and governed ledger path.

How do I connect Claude or Cursor?

Create an MCP API key in Settings, under Data Sources and Event Intelligence, then configure the client to use https://api.buildtheyear.com/mcp. Never put a key into a public page or shared repository.
