Star: launch CLI and MCP for internet rounds

Star is a fundraising platform for internet rounds on Solana. The CLI is the primary interface. Same package is a local MCP server and a launch-token-on-star skill. Pin @star-factory/launch-cli@0.5.0. Docs: Curves and Quickstart. The product piece stays: Star internet rounds.

You authorize in the browser. Star derives the launch wallet and reserves a vanity mint. The agent never handles wallet secrets or mint keypairs. Nothing launches until you approve the payload.

Curves

A curve round raises USDC on a bonding curve. No fixed price. Backers can buy and sell during the raise. The sale completes at the graduation market cap, then the token migrates into a live pool. The round also funds onchain liquidity. Supply is 1,000,000,000 SPL: 60% public sale, 20% team (locked), 20% liquidity. After graduation the founder earns 0.7% of each secondary trade. Capital unlocks with market cap, max $8.6M. Larger than $50K: book a call.

Tier ids and economics come from star launch requirements, never from this write-up as a hard-coded contract. The CLI ships no economics of its own.

Install

Node.js 22 or 24. Pin 0.5.0. An unpinned install can resolve an older latest tag.

npm install --global @star-factory/launch-cli@0.5.0
star --version
npx -y @star-factory/launch-cli@0.5.0 --help

Launch

Four founder decisions, none defaulted: raise tier, equity link percent, compensation-band plan, Launch Rewards allocation. Ownership is offshore-dao, equity-linked, or ace-safe. --equity-link is only for equity-linked. Off a terminal, omit a decision and you get DECISION_REQUIRED. Production is the default. Staging needs --env staging on every command.

Unverified X handles are dropped at launch. Prove with star launch x-verify. Nothing in the ownership structure is set up unless the raise graduates.

MCP and skill

mcp add registers tools. It does not install the skill. Copy skills from the package, then serve. Rewards management is CLI-only today.

npm install --global @star-factory/launch-cli@0.5.0
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -R "$(npm root -g)/@star-factory/launch-cli/skills/." ~/.claude/skills/
claude mcp add --scope user star -- npx -y @star-factory/launch-cli@0.5.0 mcp serve

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "star": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@star-factory/launch-cli@0.5.0", "mcp", "serve"]
    }
  }
}

Rewards

Second login for rewards:manage. Start with star rewards requirements --json. Do not invent campaign budgets.
