## Tools (for AI agents)

NonToxicLab exposes a Model Context Protocol server at `https://nontoxiclab.com/mcp` and a parallel REST OpenAPI surface at `https://nontoxiclab.com/openapi.yaml`. Browser-side WebMCP context is provided on every page via `navigator.modelContext`. Discovery: `https://nontoxiclab.com/.well-known/mcp/server-card.json`, `https://nontoxiclab.com/.well-known/ai-plugin.json`, `https://nontoxiclab.com/.well-known/agent-card.json` (A2A spec), `https://nontoxiclab.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server` (RFC 8414), `https://nontoxiclab.com/.well-known/oauth-protected-resource` (RFC 9728). Auth is OPTIONAL: the MCP server is a public read-only resource, but a decorative OAuth flow at `https://nontoxiclab.com/oauth/token` (client_credentials, accepts any credentials) is provided so agents that require token discovery before calling MCP can complete the handshake.
