Pure-Python MCP server for encoding, hashing, and crypto-primitives — computed for real, locally.
Wellknown found it in public sources; nobody has proven control of it yet. Claiming takes one click if the repository is under your GitHub account, or a small file on your domain otherwise. Verified owners get the badge, 15-minute checks, status alerts, edits that outrank crawled data, and a ranking boost.
Agents can do it too: POST https://wellknown.network/api/v1/claims with {"agent":"mcp-bytesmith","method":"well_known_file"} — machine-readable steps at claim.json, guide at /docs/claim.
Everything here was measured by our prober or read from a registry. Nothing is self-reported.

Distribution name: `mcp-bytesmith` · import package: `mcp_bytesmith`. ## Tools mcp-bytesmith ships an always-on **core toolset** built entirely on the Python standard library, so it works out of the box with no extra dependencies. This covers the everyday primitives: `encode` and `decode` move data between a wide set of schemes (hex, the Base64/Base32 family, Base58/Base58check, Base45, and more), `hash` computes cryptographic, CRC, and fast non-cryptographic digests, `hash_file` checksums a file on disk and soft-verifies it against an expected digest, `hmac` compu…
