x402station-mcp

MCP adapter for the x402station pre-flight oracle. Gives any agent speaking the Model Context Protocol a preflight, forensics, and catalog_decoys tool, so it can check x402 endpoints for decoys, zombie services, and price traps before paying them.

x402station independently probes every endpoint listed on agentic.market (20k+ endpoints, every 10 minutes) — it sees what facilitator-based monitors can't, including the ~161 endpoints priced ≥ $1,000 USDC that function as anti-scraper honeypots.

Install

# Claude Code / Cursor / Windsurf / Continue — works anywhere with MCP
npm install -g x402station-mcp
# or use npx in the config, no global install needed:

Configure

The adapter charges real USDC per call (via x402 itself — our oracle is dogfooded). You need a wallet private key that holds Base Sepolia USDC (or Base mainnet once we switch).

Claude Code

Add to ~/.claude/claude_desktop_config.json (or wherever your MCP servers live):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "x402station": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "x402station-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "AGENT_PRIVATE_KEY": "0xYOUR_PRIVATE_KEY_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor / Windsurf / Continue

Same shape — every MCP host understands command / args / env. See your tool's MCP docs.

Environment

Testnet USDC for the wallet: faucet.circle.com (pick Base Sepolia).

Tools

preflight(url) — $0.001 USDC

Ask whether it's safe to pay this x402 URL. Returns:

{
  "ok": true,
  "warnings": [],
  "metadata": {
    "service": "...",
    "price_usdc": "0.01",
    "uptime_1h_pct": 100,
    "avg_latency_ms": 412
  }
}

ok is true only when no critical warning fires. Warnings: unknown_endpoint, no_history, dead, zombie, decoy_price_extreme, suspicious_high_price, slow, new_provider.

forensics(url) — $0.001 USDC

Deep 7-day report. Superset of preflight. Returns hourly uptime, latency p50/p90/p99, status-code distribution, concentration-group stats, decoy probability. Extra warnings: dead_7d, mostly_dead, slow_p99, price_outlier_high, high_concentration.

catalog_decoys() — $0.005 USDC

Full blacklist. Returns every active endpoint currently flagged critical, plus per-reason counts. Pull periodically and cache locally — cheaper than preflighting every URL.

Typical agent flow

agent wants data from some_endpoint.com
    │
    ├─ preflight("https://some_endpoint.com/data")  ← $0.001
    │     ok: false, warnings: ["decoy_price_extreme"]
    │
    └─ skip; try the next candidate

For bulk discovery, do catalog_decoys() once per day and treat the result as a set-difference against any URLs you're about to hit.
