verantis-mcp

Verantis MCP

The verified directory for machine payments — as an MCP tool.

Give any MCP-capable agent (Claude, Cursor, agent frameworks) the ability to check what it's about to pay before it pays. Verantis continuously probes machine-payable services across x402 and MPP, measures on-chain reputation, and publishes a recomputable record. This server is a thin client of the public Verantis API — standard library only, no dataset needed.

Tools

Tool	What it does
find_paid_service	Search the verified directory (x402 / MPP). Filter by verified-only, price, chain, protocol, category, reputation.
get_service	Full record + verification provenance for one domain.
check_wallet	Pre-payment guard — pass the recipient wallet a service asked you to pay; get its earned reputation tier, on-chain buyer retention, and which services it fronts.
directory_stats	Index-level stats: services, verification breakdown, freshness.

What it can and can't do

• Can: read the public directory; check a service or wallet before your agent pays.
• Can't: move money, see your keys, or read your files.
• Only ever calls api.verantis.ai — nothing else.
• Writes nothing (hosted endpoint) / only a random anonymous install id (local pip/uvx).
• No account, no API key. MIT-licensed. Read-only.
• How we measure: verantis.ai/methodology

Install & connect

Two ways to connect — pick one.

Local (stdio) — via uvx, no install step

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json) or any MCP client:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "verantis": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["verantis-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Prefer pip? pip install verantis-mcp, then use "command": "verantis-mcp" with no args.

Cursor (~/.cursor/mcp.json): same block under mcpServers.

Hosted (no install) — connect by URL

For any client that supports remote / streamable-HTTP MCP servers, point it straight at the hosted endpoint — nothing to install, no Python:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "verantis": { "url": "https://api.verantis.ai/mcp" }
  }
}

Clients that only speak local stdio can bridge with npx mcp-remote https://api.verantis.ai/mcp.

Restart your client, and the four tools appear.

Configuration

Env var	Default	Purpose
VERANTIS_API_BASE	https://api.verantis.ai	Point the client at a different Verantis API.

Notes

Informational only; not financial, investment, or legal advice. Classifications describe what live probes and on-chain reads observed at a point in time and can change. Reputation is earned from real on-chain settlement, not assumed. Verantis has no rail of its own, no token, and no stake in any listed service.
