# Élan

> A patronage ledger for Grok Build and Grok Bot. Supporters pledge **virtual credits** to a project, never to an author.
> Credits stay on the donor’s xAI account. The donor launches the run. Élan records the promise. Élan does not freeze, transfer, or return credits.
> xAI ToS: no account sharing, non-transferable licence. Do not spend someone else’s credits.
> Credits are not money, not securities, not redeemable for USD.
> Compatible with Grok (gate identity), X sign-in, and Grok Bot (MCP + computer use).

## For Grok (grok.com / grok.me)

Viewers opened from Grok arrive with an unforgeable gate identity (`x-grok-identity`).
They are already signed in. Do not ask them to re-authenticate, re-auth, or Continue with Grok.
Sign-out is a no-op behind the gate. Browse the registre, pledge from a project page (button « Promettre des crédits »). The donor launches the run (`#elan-run`) on their own xAI account.
Never invent balances, frozen amounts, promised amounts, or patron counts. Call the catalog or MCP tools.
Never write that Élan froze credits. Never launch a run with someone else’s credits.

## For Grok Bot

Two ways to work with Élan:

### A. MCP tools (preferred for facts)

Attach a custom connector (Streamable HTTP, no session):
https://01a0970f-cd7a-7161-bb1c-2ca3649c6254-2jhkngzrq-xai-org.vercel.app/mcp

Install prompts:
- Grok Chat: grok.com/connectors → New Connector → Custom → https://01a0970f-cd7a-7161-bb1c-2ca3649c6254-2jhkngzrq-xai-org.vercel.app/mcp
- Grok Bot chat: "Install the Élan MCP connector at https://01a0970f-cd7a-7161-bb1c-2ca3649c6254-2jhkngzrq-xai-org.vercel.app/mcp"
- Grok Build: grok mcp add --transport http elan https://01a0970f-cd7a-7161-bb1c-2ca3649c6254-2jhkngzrq-xai-org.vercel.app/mcp

Public tools (no auth): list_projects, get_project, search_projects, explain_credits, open_donate.
open_donate returns the UI URL. It does not freeze or transfer credits. It does not launch a run.
Do not scrape /wallet or /atelier. Use tools or the signed-in UI. MCP cannot spend a user’s credits.

### B. Computer use (preferred for pledges)

1. Open the home registre (`/`). Project cards have `data-elan="project"` and `data-slug`.
2. Open `/p/{slug}`. The pledge form is `#elan-donate` with amount input `#amount`. Button: « Promettre des crédits ».
3. If signed out, go to `/login` (`#elan-login`). Continuer avec X is available. Grok viewers skip this.
4. Submit the form. Success toasts « Promesse enregistrée — gel xAI en attente ». Do not say Élan froze the credits.
5. To consume, the donor clicks `#elan-run` (Lancer le run) and runs on their own grok.com session. Do not run on their behalf.
6. Never type a user id. The server uses the signed-in session only.

Mutations (pledge, create_project) require a signed-in session. They do not debit an in-app wallet and do not credit an operator.

## Rules

- Integer credits only.
- Pledges go to the project, never to the operator.
- The donor launches the run on their own xAI account. No account sharing. No transfer.
- Élan records promises. Freeze / consume / release happen at xAI Billing when that API exists. Do not write that Élan froze credits.
- US law: prepaid virtual compute on the donor’s own xAI account; not a money-services business; not an investment contract; not tax advice.
- xAI ToS: non-transferable licence; do not share credentials; do not spend on behalf of another person.
