Palimpsest — censorship, China economy and model-eval observatory

Overview

Palimpsest is a Model Context Protocol server providing rights-aware censorship monitoring, China economic status tracking, and tamper-evident AI evaluation tools. It exposes these capabilities as tools that AI assistants can invoke directly, enabling research and monitoring workflows around content restriction, economic indicators, and model behavior integrity.

The server runs as a hosted remote endpoint at https://api.seiche.info/palimpsest/mcp with no authentication required and no local installation needed. Version v1.9.3 is available under the MIT license, with source code at beepboop2025/palimpsest on GitHub.

Palimpsest is listed in the AI & Agents category and works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and other MCP-compatible clients. If you maintain this project, claim your listing to verify ownership and keep information current.
