The tool

Once your client is connected to the VerveKit server, this appears in its tool list as MurmurHashSkill. It is read-only and open-world — it fetches and never mutates anything on your side — so most clients call it without asking you to confirm.

Tool call
{
  "name": "MurmurHashSkill",
  "arguments": {
    "text": "hello world"
  }
}

You do not name the tool yourself; the model picks it. Asking about hello world in the terms this skill covers is enough for it to reach for MurmurHashSkill on its own — naming it explicitly also works, and is the way to force the call.

Connecting

One server URL covers every skill in the catalog, including this one. Authorization is OAuth: the client opens a browser once, and there is no key to paste into a config file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "vervekit": {
      "url": "https://api.vervekit.com/v1/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Per-client setup — Claude, Cursor, VS Code, ChatGPT — is on the MCP setup page.

Arguments

These are the properties on the tool's inputSchema, so a well-behaved client validates them before the call is made. Premium arguments are accepted on every plan but only take effect on plans that include them.

ArgumentTypeDescription
textRequiredstringThe text to hash
seedOptionalintegerSeed value for the hash function
range 0–∞
variantOptionalstringHash variant: 32 (32-bit) or 128 (128-bit)
32128
default 32

What the model gets back

The result carries a structuredContent object matching the tool's declared outputSchema, so a client reads fields without parsing prose. status is "ok" and error is null on success; a null field means the value was not available for that input, not that the call failed.

Result
{
  "status": "ok",
  "error": null,
  "data": {
    "hash": 1586663183,
    "hashHex": "5e928f0f",
    "variant": "murmur3_32",
    "seed": 0
  }
}

Response fields

Paths are relative to data. Premium fields are absent rather than zeroed on plans that do not include them, so check for presence instead of comparing to 0.

FieldTypeExampleDescription
hashnumber1586663183Generated MurmurHash3 hash value as an unsigned integer. Use hashHex for the hexadecimal string form
hashHexstring5e928f0fThe hash rendered as a lowercase hexadecimal string
variantstringmurmur3_32Hash variant that was used (32 or 128)
seednumber0Seed value used for hash generation

Failure modes

Errors come back as tool errors carrying a sentence the model can act on, not a bare status code. Error handling covers the full list.

StatusWhat it means
400 / 422The arguments did not validate. The message names the offending one.
401The OAuth session is invalid or expired — reconnect the server.
403Blocked by a key restriction or an IP allow-list. Never a bad identity.
404This skill is not part of VerveKit. Check the catalog.
429Out of credits, or a brief rate limit. The message tells them apart.

A call costs 2 credits each time the tool actually runs; a model that reasons about the tool without calling it costs nothing.

Use cases

Hash Tables
Generate keys for hash-based data structures
Data Partitioning
Consistently distribute data across shards
Bloom Filters
Fast hashing for probabilistic data structures
Deduplication
Quickly identify duplicate records

Other ways to use MurmurHash Skill

Set up MurmurHash Skill on VerveKit, or reach the same source a different way. Your VerveKit account and credits work on all of them — one key, one balance.

Call it as a REST APIOne HTTPS endpoint and an x-api-key header, with SDKs for Node, Python and .NET.APIVerve →Reference →
