About Enigma MCP

Enigma's beta hosted MCP server gives AI clients access to U.S. business intelligence, company and person research, card-revenue analytics, KYB, government records, adverse-media research, and sanctions screening.

What you can use it for

  • Research businesses and their revenue/growth; inspect business locations and associated legal entities; find related people and public registration context; compare markets and competitors; search government records and negative news; perform KYB and sanctions screening. Use only authorized business or compliance workflows for person and screening data.
Connection and setup
Hosting
Remote, vendor-hosted
Transport
Streamable HTTP; OAuth is the default documented flow, with a separate API-key endpoint
Endpoint
https://mcp.enigma.com/http
Authentication
Interactive browser OAuth through /http, or an Enigma API key sent as x-api-key to /http-key. Enigma documents API-key auth as recommended for Claude Code and Cursor and OAuth for its Claude/ChatGPT connector flows. An Enigma account is required; API key is created in Enigma Console ? Settings ? Account ? API keys.

Requirements

  • Enigma account and access to its Console. For API-key setup, create an Enigma API key. Client plan/permissions vary: official docs specify Claude Pro or Claude for Work owner permissions for Claude custom connectors; Cursor Pro or team admin; ChatGPT Pro/Plus or eligible managed workspace with developer/custom connector access. The remote MCP service is in beta.

Setup steps

  1. Native remote clients: add https://mcp.enigma.com/http and complete Enigma Console browser OAuth when prompted. For API-key transport, configure https://mcp.enigma.com/http-key with header x-api-key: <ENIGMA_API_KEY>. Claude Code command documented by Enigma: claude mcp add --transport http enigma https://mcp.enigma.com/http-key --header "x-api-key:<your_api_key>". Cursor/Gemini CLI/VS Code docs also show npx @enigma-com/enigma-mcp-remote@latest as a local bridge with the remote /http-key endpoint and x-api-key header; use that only for clients/configurations that require the bridge. Never place the key in chat. Restart/reload if tools do not appear. Verify with a harmless business lookup such as ?Find basic information about Tacombi's business.?
Tools 16

The main MCP tool pages document 14 tool names; the official MCP rate-limit tables also name generate_brands_segment and generate_locations_segment. Total documented set across these official pages: 16; whether available in a given workspace may depend on plan/product access.

Limitations and notes
  • Vendor documents the remote MCP as beta; beta clients may disconnect or change.
  • Tool availability depends on account access, enabled products, client permissions, and screening configuration. Decision tools require case management/decision recording to be enabled.
  • The endpoints differ by authentication mode: /http uses OAuth; /http-key uses the x-api-key header. Do not treat them as interchangeable without the documented auth.
  • The vendor documentation provides client-specific prerequisites and may require paid client plans or owner/admin permissions.
  • MCP documentation pages were last updated July 1?2, 2026; checked date is recorded separately as 2026-10-14.
