ZeroTrue MCP Server
OfficialEnables GitHub Copilot to analyze files, URLs, and text for AI-generated content.
Enables JetBrains IDEs to analyze local files and text for AI-generated content via ZeroTrue.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@ZeroTrue MCP Serveranalyze this text for AI-generated content"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
ZeroTrue MCP Server
Official Model Context Protocol server for the ZeroTrue AI Detection API. Detect AI-generated text, images, video, and audio from any MCP-compatible agent or IDE.
Quick Start
Requires a ZeroTrue API key. Get one at zerotrue.app.
ZEROTRUE_API_KEY=zt_your_key npx -y @zerotrue/mcp stdioTools
Tool | Description |
| Detect AI-generated content in plain text |
| Analyze media or text at a direct HTTP(S) URL |
| Analyze a local file by path (preferred for desktop/CLI clients) |
| Analyze a Base64-encoded file |
| Retrieve a previous analysis result by ID |
| Return API metadata and supported formats |
All tools accept optional isDeepScan and isPrivateScan flags where applicable.
zerotrue_analyze_local_file
The recommended tool for local MCP clients. Pass an absolute path: the server validates the file, detects its MIME type, and uploads it as a multipart form to ZeroTrue. No manual Base64 encoding needed.

{ "id": "246c6522-195d-45d3-af96-0f2360d2e0bc" }Response Format
Every tool returns a consistent JSON envelope:
{
"ok": true,
"data": {
"id": "246c6522-195d-45d3-af96-0f2360d2e0bc",
"status": "completed",
"result": {
"ai_probability": 0.998,
"human_probability": 0.002,
"result_type": "ai_generated",
"feedback": "High probability of AI generation detected"
}
}
}Errors use the same shape with ok: false:
{
"ok": false,
"error": {
"statusCode": 401,
"message": "ZeroTrue API key is required.",
"code": "ZEROTRUE_API_ERROR"
}
}Client Setup
[mcp_servers.zerotrue]
command = "npx"
args = ["-y", "@zerotrue/mcp", "stdio"]
[mcp_servers.zerotrue.env]
ZEROTRUE_API_KEY = "zt_your_key"Add to claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"zerotrue": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@zerotrue/mcp", "stdio"],
"env": {
"ZEROTRUE_API_KEY": "zt_your_key"
}
}
}
}copilot mcp add zerotrue \
--transport stdio \
--env ZEROTRUE_API_KEY=zt_your_key \
--tools '*' \
--timeout 310000 \
-- npx -y @zerotrue/mcp stdio
Or add manually to your workspace .vscode/mcp.json:
{
"inputs": [
{
"id": "zerotrue-api-key",
"type": "promptString",
"description": "ZeroTrue API key",
"password": true
}
],
"servers": {
"zerotrue": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@zerotrue/mcp", "stdio"],
"env": {
"ZEROTRUE_API_KEY": "${input:zerotrue-api-key}"
}
}
}
}Add to your Cursor MCP settings:
{
"mcpServers": {
"zerotrue": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@zerotrue/mcp", "stdio"],
"env": {
"ZEROTRUE_API_KEY": "zt_your_key"
}
}
}
}Use the IDE MCP settings panel with a local stdio server:
{
"mcpServers": {
"zerotrue": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@zerotrue/mcp", "stdio"],
"env": {
"ZEROTRUE_API_KEY": "zt_your_key"
}
}
}
}Run the HTTP server:
ZEROTRUE_API_KEY=zt_your_key \
ZEROTRUE_MCP_PORT=8787 \
npx -y @zerotrue/mcp httpOr with Docker:
docker run -p 8787:8787 \
-e ZEROTRUE_API_KEY=zt_your_key \
zerotrue/mcpMCP endpoint: http://localhost:8787/mcp
Health check: http://localhost:8787/healthz
Point your MCP client to the endpoint above. For production, place the server behind HTTPS and add authentication.

Store
ZEROTRUE_API_KEYin your MCP client config, never in source control.Prefer
stdiomode for personal use: your key never leaves your machine.zerotrue_analyze_local_filecan only access files readable by the MCP server process.For HTTP deployments, do not expose the
/mcpendpoint publicly without authentication and rate limiting.
Troubleshooting
ZeroTrue API key is required - Set ZEROTRUE_API_KEY in the environment where the MCP server starts.
File is not readable or does not exist - Use an absolute path and confirm the MCP server process has read access.
fetch failed - Check connectivity: curl https://api.zerotrue.app/api/v1/info. If details.cause.code is present, use it to diagnose DNS, TLS, or proxy issues.
Stale tool behavior after an update - Restart the MCP client. Most clients keep MCP subprocesses alive between tool calls.
