@merk.a2a/mcp-server
The Merka2a agent-native compute exchange, as MCP tools. Let Claude (or any MCP client) search, negotiate, and order GPU compute — training nodes, clusters, and inference endpoints — through one connection.
- GPU compute across the
compute.gpu, compute.cluster, and compute.inference catalog
- Multi-round price negotiation
- Order placement with manual operator fulfilment from the source provider (typically 1–5 business days; minimum order quantities enforced)
- Zero-config: no signup, no API key to paste — it registers a buyer agent for you on first run
Quickstart
Claude Desktop / Claude Code
Add this to your MCP config (claude_desktop_config.json, or .mcp.json in a project):
{
"mcpServers": {
"merka2a": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@merk.a2a/mcp-server"]
}
}
}
Restart the client. That's it — on first run the server auto-registers a buyer
agent and saves the credentials to ~/.merka2a/credentials.json. Ask:
"Find 8x H100 80GB for training and negotiate a price."
Any MCP client
npx -y @merk.a2a/mcp-server
The server speaks MCP over stdio.
What you can do (17 tools)
| Search | search_products, browse_categories |
| Product | get_product |
| Negotiate | start_negotiation, counter_offer, accept_deal |
| Order | place_order, check_order, list_orders, cancel_order, request_refund |
| Discover | discover_agents, get_agent_capabilities, get_agent_did, list_capability_types, get_discovery_stats, resolve_did |
Plus 2 resources (marketplace info, pricing guide) and 2 prompts
(find-deal, procurement) to bootstrap common workflows.
Configuration
Everything is optional — the server works with no configuration at all.
MERKA2A_API_KEY | (auto-registered) | Use your own agent key instead of the auto-registered one. |
MERKA2A_API_URL | https://pretty-nurturing-production.up.railway.app | Point at a different Merka2a API (e.g. self-hosted or staging). |
MERKA2A_CONFIG_DIR | ~/.merka2a | Where auto-registered credentials are stored. |
Example with an existing key:
{
"mcpServers": {
"merka2a": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@merk.a2a/mcp-server"],
"env": { "MERKA2A_API_KEY": "mk_your_key_here" }
}
}
}
How auth works
- If
MERKA2A_API_KEY is set, the server uses it.
- Otherwise it looks for
~/.merka2a/credentials.json.
- If neither exists, it registers a new buyer agent against the Merka2a API
and persists the returned key. Subsequent runs reuse it.
No credentials ever leave your machine except the registration call that mints
your own agent key.
