Agent skill + remote MCP server: find verified free AI credits, free tiers, startup programs and student perks, with source links.

Perq skill

An agent skill (plus a remote MCP server) that answers "what free AI credits can I get for X?" with verified offers from Perq: free tiers, signup credits, startup programs, student and research perks, and perk marketplaces for AI APIs, models, GPUs and dev tools.

Every offer comes from the vendor's own page and includes the source URL, a verbatim quote from that page, and a last-verified timestamp. The skill tells the agent to show the source link and date with every offer and never to invent offers or amounts.

It works with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Hermes Agent, and any agent that reads SKILL.md files (agentskills.io format).

The skill is one file: skills/perq/SKILL.md. The repo also has:

  • .claude-plugin/plugin.json and marketplace.json: Claude Code plugin (skill + MCP server)
  • .mcp.json: the remote MCP server config for clients that read it
  • gemini-extension.json: Gemini CLI extension (MCP server + skill as context)
  • server.json: the official MCP Registry entry (sh.perq/perq)

Install

Any agent (skills.sh)

npx skills add f-o-x11/perq-skill

Add -g to install for all projects, or -a claude-code, -a codex, -a cursor, or -a hermes-agent to pick the agent.

Claude Code

As a plugin (installs the skill and the MCP server):

claude plugin marketplace add f-o-x11/perq-skill
claude plugin install perq@perq

MCP server only:

claude mcp add --transport http perq https://perq.sh/mcp

Or as a plain skill:

mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/perq && curl -fsSL https://perq.sh/skill.md -o ~/.claude/skills/perq/SKILL.md

Codex

npx skills add f-o-x11/perq-skill -a codex -g

Cursor

npx skills add f-o-x11/perq-skill -a cursor

Or add the MCP server to ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "perq": { "url": "https://perq.sh/mcp" } } }

Gemini CLI

gemini extensions install https://github.com/f-o-x11/perq-skill

Hermes Agent

hermes skills install f-o-x11/perq-skill/skills/perq

What it does

Ask your agent "what free credits can I get for speech-to-text?" The agent runs:

curl -sS -G "https://perq.sh/api/search" --data-urlencode "q=free speech to text credits" -d limit=5 -d ref=skill

and answers with each offer's value, eligibility, claim link, source link and last-verified date. Filters: category, type, student=true, no_application=true, include_closed=true, limit.

MCP tools: find_credits(need, filters), get_offer(id), list_packs(), get_pack(slug), recently_changed(days).

ref=skill tells Perq that a search came from this skill. It does not change the results.
