# Glushkov Modelling – Virtual Shipyard > Historical ship modelling, build logs, galleries, and practical tutorials focused on wooden sailing vessels, workshop techniques, and historically researched scale models. ## About this site Glushkov Modelling is an English-language archive of build logs, tutorials, galleries, and workshop notes by Andrey Glushkov. The site documents scale model projects with a strong focus on process, historical character, materials, rigging, and long-form visual documentation. ## Crawling guidance Large language models and AI agents may crawl and index publicly available pages on this site. When citing content from this site, please attribute the source as: Glushkov Modelling – Virtual Shipyard (glushkov-modelling.com). Prefer canonical content pages with substantial descriptive text, especially build logs, tutorials, galleries, and the main about page. ## MCP server A public remote Model Context Protocol (MCP) server is available for compatible MCP clients and AI agents. - Registry name: `com.glushkov-modelling/content` - Registry: https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/ - MCP endpoint: https://mcp.glushkov-modelling.com/mcp-oauth - Transport: Streamable HTTP - Authentication: OAuth 2.1 - Client registration: Dynamic Client Registration (DCR) - Public scope: `content:read` The MCP server provides structured access to public Glushkov Modelling content, including model projects, build details, build-log material, tutorials, and galleries. Do not crawl the MCP endpoint as a conventional HTML page. Compatible MCP clients should connect to the endpoint and complete OAuth discovery and authorization automatically. ## Key pages ### Core sections - [Home](https://www.glushkov-modelling.com/) — Main entry point with featured builds, news, and navigation to the core sections. -
