💸 Payment Model

This server uses payment passthrough — the MCP server holds NO wallet. Each agent provides their own signed payment per call.

Flow:

• Agent calls a tool without payment → MCP returns 402 + payment requirements
• Agent signs the payment locally with their wallet (hardware wallet, MPC, smart wallet, or private key)
• Agent retries the tool with _payment argument or PAYMENT-SIGNATURE HTTP header
• MCP forwards the signed payment to the underlying x402 service

Easiest signing: use @x402/fetch to wrap your fetch — it handles the 402 → sign → retry loop automatically:

import { wrapFetchWithPaymentFromConfig } from "@x402/fetch";
import { ExactEvmScheme } from "@x402/evm";
import { privateKeyToAccount } from "viem/accounts";

const account = privateKeyToAccount(process.env.WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY);
const paidFetch = wrapFetchWithPaymentFromConfig(fetch, {
  schemes: [{ network: "eip155:*", client: new ExactEvmScheme(account) }]
});

// Now calls to mcp.x402tools.xyz auto-pay on 402

Manual signing (for hardware wallets, MPC, smart accounts):

• Read requirements.accepts[0] from the 402 response
• Use @x402/evm's ExactEvmScheme.createPaymentPayload(2, requirements) with your ClientEvmSigner
• Wrap as v2 PaymentPayload: { x402Version: 2, payload, extensions: {}, resource, accepted }
• Base64-encode the JSON
• Send as PAYMENT-SIGNATURE HTTP header (or _payment tool arg)

🏷 Protocol

• Network: Base mainnet (eip155:8453)
• Token: USDC (0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913)
• Receiver: 0xcEbbB82a183Faa69b929eD1F417aAFc63fa3b5b6
• Header: PAYMENT-SIGNATURE (x402 v2)
