About
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that integrates Incode's identity verification into AI assistants like Claude. Enable your AI to generate verification links, check session status, retrieve scores, and manage authentication tokens — all through natural language.
Available Tools
The server provides five powerful tools for complete identity verification workflows:
| Tool | Description | Key Parameters | Returns |
|---|---|---|---|
| generate_interview_link | Create a new verification session | None (backend configured) | Interview ID & URL |
| get_interview_status | Check session progress | interviewId | Status & progress info |
| get_interview_score | Get verification results | interviewId | Score & detailed results |
| get_interview_token | Get JWT token on successful interview (15 min TTL) | interviewId | JWT access token |
| validate_token | Verify token validity | token | Validation result & claims |
View Detailed Tool Specifications
generate_interview_link
Create a new identity verification session.
- Inputs: None (all values are configured on the backend)
- Returns: Interview ID and verification URL
get_interview_status
Check the current status of an identity verification session.
- Inputs:
interviewId(string): The interview ID returned fromgenerate_interview_link
- Returns: Current status and progress information
get_interview_score
Retrieve verification results and score for a completed session.
- Inputs:
interviewId(string): The interview ID returned fromgenerate_interview_link
- Returns: Verification result, score, and detailed information
get_interview_token
Get JWT token directly for successfully completed interviews (15-minute TTL).
- Inputs:
interviewId(string): The interview ID returned fromgenerate_interview_link
- Returns: JWT access token and metadata
validate_token
Validate JWT token and return claims.
- Inputs:
token(string): JWT token to validate
- Returns: Validation result and token claims if valid
Verification Workflow
The typical identity verification workflow is straightforward and powerful:

Step-by-Step Process
| Step | Action | Tool | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Generate Link | generate_interview_link | Create verification URL for user |
| 2 | Check Status | get_interview_status | Monitor completion progress |
| 3 | Get Score | get_interview_score | Retrieve verification results |
| 4 | Get Interview JWT Token | get_interview_token | Obtain JWT token when succesful interview with results (15 min TTL) |
| 5 | Validate Token | validate_token | Verify JWT token is from valid interview |
Quick Start
Get Your API Key 🔑
- Visit https://mcp-playground.labs.incode.com/
- Sign up for an account
- Verify your email and retrieve your API KEY
Install & Configure
Add this to your claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"incode-idv": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@incodetech/incode-idv-mcp"],
"env": {
"API_KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"
}
}
}
}
Tip: Replace
YOUR_API_KEY_HEREwith your actual API key from step 1
Configure Claude Desktop
- Open Claude Desktop App
- Navigate to Settings
- Go to Developer tab
- Click Edit Config
- Add the configuration above with your API_KEY
- Restart Claude Desktop to load the new MCP server. Ensure MCP server is enabled.
Verify Installation
After restarting Claude Desktop, ask Claude:
"Can you generate an identity verification link?"
If configured correctly, Claude will use the MCP server to create a verification session!
🔧 Troubleshooting
Having issues? Here's how to get back on track:
Common Issues
| Issue | Solution |
|---|---|
| Tools Not Working | Verify your API_KEY is correctly set in the configuration with a valid value |
| Path Errors | Ensure the project directory path or package name is correct. |
| Server Not Starting | Validate your claude_desktop_config.json syntax (no trailing commas, proper quotes) |
| Token Expired | JWT tokens expire in 15 min. Generate new ones as needed |
