Command Center

Your company's purchased productivity tools, inventoried once — then usable as a second brain by any AI assistant. One repo, one source of truth, zero per-seat AI tax.

The idea

Every company pays for a sprawl of tools — email providers, campaign platforms, team chat — and nobody holds the full picture. Command Center fixes that in two layers:

1. Inventory — inventory.yaml records every purchased tool: plan, seats, cost, owner, renewal date. discovery/ scripts detect what's actually in use (MX/DNS checks, expense keyword lists) so the inventory stays honest.

2. Second brain — brain/server.py is an MCP server. Claude Desktop, ChatGPT, Cursor and friends connect to it and can answer "which tools do we pay for that do the same thing?" or "what renews next quarter?" straight from your inventory, as typed context packets. Read-only by design.

Quickstart

python3 -m venv .venv && .venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt

# 1. Detect a company's email provider (passive, no credentials)
.venv/bin/python discovery/mx_discover.py zoho.com

# 2. Record your stack
cp inventory.example.yaml inventory.yaml   # then edit it

# 3. Start the second brain (stdio MCP server)
.venv/bin/python brain/server.py

Register brain/server.py as an MCP server in Claude Desktop (Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector) or ChatGPT (Settings → Apps / MCP). Both speak MCP natively — one server, both assistants.

Why this, why now

SaaS inventory tools (Zylo, Torii, Vertice) are enterprise-quote-only with $50K+ floors. AI search tools (Glean) can't act; agent tools (Moveworks) cost six figures. And cloud second brains can vanish overnight — Limitless was acquired by Meta and shut down in Dec 2025. This is the MIT-licensed, self-hosted, MCP-native alternative: your context layer, owned by you. Tokens are rented. Context is owned.

Roadmap

• OAuth connector guides per catalog tool (least-privilege scopes)

• Expense CSV import → auto-suggest inventory entries

• Renewal reminders (scheduled brief)

• Tiny web dashboard over inventory.yaml
