Turn a local business question into one JSON report: Google search results, Maps listings, observed competitor domains and optional own-domain presence. The Local Market Check combines these observations in one paid package call. You can also start with a domain-ranking snapshot or selected keyword demand.

Result	Free recipe	Paid tool
Search + Maps for one term and location	Local Market Check · JSON recipe	local_market_check
Keywords a domain ranks for	Domain rankings · JSON recipe	ranked_keywords
Search volume and advertising competition for selected terms	Keyword demand · JSON recipe	keyword_metrics

The recipes are free and do not authorize payment. Resolve location and language, read the current contract and quote, then approve the scope and total spending limit before buying. Local Market Check returns JSON with serpTop, maps, competitors, optional presence and tips. Check partial and unavailableSections: missing data remains unknown. Tips are suggestions, not verified findings. The result is a sample, not a complete market analysis or a ranking/revenue promise. Do not buy the component searches separately or retry payment after an unclear result.

Other catalogue services include site audits, backlinks, SMS verification, receive-only inboxes, LLM chat hosted in Germany and x402 seller checks.

No account, no API key. Paid calls use USDC on Base via x402. Free endpoints (quotes, catalogue, status, locations) need no wallet at all.

Source and published package

Version 0.3.0 introduces the v2 payment client and persistent purchase guards described below. Earlier 0.2.1 installations use a different payment client; do not assume these safeguards for that version. Check npm latest and the official MCP Registry before installing. An unversioned npx command selects npm's published release, not necessarily the current GitHub source. Use the source setup for this checked-in version. GitHub, npm, Registry and Glama are separate release channels.

This repo provides three entry points:

Form	For	Install
MCP server (index.mjs)	Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, OpenClaw, Hermes, anything MCP	Published npm package; check its version, or use the source setup
Skill (skills/connskill-growth/)	Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw, Hermes (agentskills.io format)	copy the folder or install from this repo
Standalone script (skills/connskill-growth/scripts/x402-call.mjs)	any agent that can run node	node x402-call.mjs GET /v1/local-market-check-quote (free)

Tools are generated from the service's current OpenAPI catalogue and x402 prices when the MCP process first reads its catalogue. The available tool set follows those documents; endpoints marked for exclusion and wallet-signature operations are kept out of this adapter. Restart the MCP process to load an updated catalogue.

Payment model

The following describes version 0.3.0 and does not apply to earlier 0.2.1 installations.

• Free endpoints work with no wallet.
• Paid endpoints need X402_WALLET_KEY, the private key of a Base wallet holding USDC. The official x402 v2 packages sign an EIP-3009 authorization for the chosen request. The client permits Base mainnet, official USDC and the configured merchant only. It checks the complete resource URL and refuses redirects. Without a key, paid MCP tools return a clear hint instead of sending a purchase.
• X402_MAX_USD (default 1.00) is an exact USDC decimal with up to six fractional digits. Empty, negative, scientific and hexadecimal values are rejected. 0 disables payment. This is a per-call authorization limit, not a daily budget.
• Requests have a bounded duration and bounded JSON request/response sizes. A signed request is sent at most once. A timeout after dispatch is an unknown outcome, not proof that the merchant rejected payment.
• An accepted background job (202) is recorded as accepted, with its purchase and authenticated status URLs. It is not reported as a delivered result.
• Payment attempts are persisted before dispatch. Repeating the same canonical request does not create another payment by default. An intentional new purchase of an already delivered request requires MCP argument confirmNewPurchase: true or CLI flag --new-purchase. Neither option overrides an accepted or unclear purchase.
• Keep the private state directory and its parent together. The parent contains a bootstrap marker that detects a missing store. Damaged or incomplete state blocks payment; it is never silently reset. A completely lost parent and marker cannot be distinguished from first use by a new process. Do not delete them to retry a purchase. Separate clients or containers must share the same persistent state to share this guard.

MCP responses include payment state in _meta["io.connskill/payment"]; uncertain outcomes also contain the purchase reference and doNotPayAgain in the text result. No authorization signature or private key is saved in the attempt store. This client uses the purchase reference for support; it does not automatically replay a payment header or sign a replacement to recover a response.

⚠️ The key can spend real USDC. Use a dedicated wallet funded with only what the agent may spend. Never a main wallet.

Install

The 0.3.0 source requires Node.js 22 or newer. The lockfile includes runtime dependencies that require Node 22. The npx examples below select the published npm release; verify its version first. To run the checked-in source, use node and the absolute path to its index.mjs after the source setup. Free discovery needs no wallet.

Claude Code

claude mcp add connskill-growth -s user -e X402_WALLET_KEY=0x... -e X402_MAX_USD=0.50 -- npx -y @connskill/mcp-growth-services

Or install the GitHub plugin with its skill (a separate source route from npm; configure wallet credentials through your client):

claude plugin marketplace add CONN-SKILL/connskill-growth-mcp
claude plugin install connskill-growth@connskill

Codex

codex mcp add connskill-growth --env X402_WALLET_KEY=0x... --env X402_MAX_USD=0.50 -- npx -y @connskill/mcp-growth-services

Skill only: copy the complete skills/connskill-growth folder to ~/.agents/skills/. Its scripts share local modules; copying only x402-call.mjs is insufficient.

Cursor / Claude Desktop (mcpServers)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "connskill-growth": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@connskill/mcp-growth-services"],
      "env": { "X402_WALLET_KEY": "0x...", "X402_MAX_USD": "0.50" }
    }
  }
}

OpenClaw

openclaw mcp add connskill-growth --command npx --arg -y --arg @connskill/mcp-growth-services

Skill: copy skills/connskill-growth into ~/.agents/skills/ (or your workspace skills/) and set X402_WALLET_KEY under skills.entries.connskill-growth.env in openclaw.json.

Hermes (NousResearch hermes-agent)

hermes skills tap add CONN-SKILL/connskill-growth-mcp
hermes skills install connskill-growth

Or MCP in ~/.hermes/config.yaml under mcp_servers: with command: npx, args: [-y, @connskill/mcp-growth-services], env: {X402_WALLET_KEY: ...}.

From source

git clone https://github.com/CONN-SKILL/connskill-growth-mcp
cd connskill-growth-mcp
npm ci
node index.mjs            # MCP over stdio
node test-smoke.mjs       # lists tools, calls a free endpoint, checks the paid guard (never spends)

Container from source

Build from this directory using the checked-in lockfile and pinned official Node image:

docker build --tag connskill-growth-mcp:local .
docker run --rm -i connskill-growth-mcp:local

The container runs as the unprivileged node user and communicates over STDIO. Keep stdin open (-i); no port is exposed. Free endpoints work without a wallet. For paid use, keep the parent directory in a named volume and supply the wallet through the runtime environment:

docker run --rm -i \
  --mount type=volume,src=connskill-growth-state,dst=/home/node/.local/state \
  --env X402_WALLET_KEY --env X402_MAX_USD=0.50 \
  connskill-growth-mcp:local

Reusing the same volume preserves attempts across container replacement. An ephemeral container filesystem cannot provide that guarantee. Supply settings at runtime only. The build context contains only the explicitly allowed package files; it excludes credentials and local dependencies.

The local container candidate is separate from a published Glama release. Glama requires a successful build test and publication through its existing maintainer interface.

The copied standalone skill needs only Node for unsigned calls. For paid calls, install the locked package dependencies from this source tree, or install @x402/fetch@2.17.0, @x402/core@2.17.0, @x402/evm@2.17.0 and viem in a parent package directory where Node can resolve them. SDK imports are lazy; no wallet or payment store is required for free discovery.

Environment

Var	Default	Meaning
X402_ORIGIN	https://agent.connskill.com	Bare HTTPS origin; no credentials, path, query or fragment
X402_WALLET_KEY	–	Base private key holding USDC (enables paid calls)
X402_MAX_USD	1.00	Exact USDC limit per paid call, at most six decimal places
X402_PAY_TO	CONNSKILL merchant for the default origin	Expected Base recipient; must be explicitly configured for a custom origin
X402_STATE_DIR	~/.local/state/connskill-mcp	Absolute path to the private attempt store; preserve its parent and marker
