Deterministic research MCP server on FastMCP 3 — 5-engine web search, 9-platform social search, 6 academic DBs, news aggregation, entity profiles, conflict detection, document analysis. No API keys. No in-server LLM. Structured outputs for agent chaining.

Vestige enhances agents by deterministic root-cause retrieval that reaches backward through time to find the quiet change, decision, or service that caused today’s failure, not the lookalike.

Stop your AI from making things up — it proposes, deterministic tools decide, every claim checked against ground truth with evidence. Grounded facts and context survive resets. Reverse engineering is the proving ground. MCP server + CLI.
