# Benefits City — authentication for agents

**No credential is required.** The MCP endpoint and JSON feeds are open and read-only.

- Flow: anonymous. Connect to `https://aiagentscity.com/benefits/mcp` (Streamable HTTP) with no Authorization header.
- No registration, API key, or OAuth. Nothing you send is stored as an identity; usage is counted as anonymous aggregates.
- Write operations: none. The server cannot change data on your behalf.
- Discovery: `https://aiagentscity.com/benefits/server.json`, `https://aiagentscity.com/benefits/llms.txt`, `https://aiagentscity.com/benefits/agents`.
- Apply links: use the `apply_url` field (our tracked link). When `sponsored` is true it is an affiliate link — see `https://aiagentscity.com/benefits/disclosure`. Ranking never depends on commissions.
