-MCP server for [Agent402](https://agent402.tools), the applied layer of [Agentic Finance](https://agent402.tools/agentic-finance) - a catalog of **500+ pay-per-call web tools and curated multi-tool skill packs** for AI agents, paid per call in USDC via the [x402 protocol](https://www.x402.org), **with compute (proof-of-work)** when no wallet is configured, or through a prepaid credits key already issued. (The hosted API is dual-stack: it also accepts [MPP](https://agent402.tools/what-is-mpp) clients on the same 402, settling on Base/Celo or natively on Tempo; this package pays via x402 or credits.) Built by [Havok Holdings LLC](https://github.com/MikeyPetrillo/Agent402).

-Your agent gets browser rendering, screenshots, PDF text extraction, URL→markdown, live web search **+ web answers with citations**, live **financial/crypto/macro data** (US equity quotes and daily bars from a licensed feed, CoinGecko, FRED, ECB FX, World Bank, yield curve), **SEC EDGAR filings** (10-K/10-Q text, XBRL, insider, 13F, IPO calendar), **deterministic stats & forecasting** (Pearson correlation, OLS, Holt-Winters), **compression** (gzip/brotli), DNS/TLS/WHOIS + email-deliverability checks, wallet-keyed shared memory, and the pure-CPU utilities - plus **skill packs** like `security-audit`, `trend-analysis`, `structured-scrape`, `decode-blob`, and `forecasting-bake-off` callable as MCP prompts, and the **report products** (deep research, company dossier, 13F fund report, domain audit, token risk, FDA recall, insider flow, market brief) as ordinary catalog slugs. Payment handled invisibly underneath the MCP calls. No signup, no API key.
+MCP server for [Agent402](https://agent402.tools), the applied layer of Agentic Finance: a catalog of **500+ web tools** that AI agents call one request at a time, paid per call in USDC over x402 or MPP (Machine Payments Protocol). Pure-CPU tools are free: each call solves a small proof-of-work puzzle on your own machine. Other tools are paid per call in USDC over the [x402 protocol](https://www.x402.org) from a wallet you control. Built by [Havok Holdings LLC](https://github.com/MikeyPetrillo/Agent402).
 
 ## Quick start
 
-**Zero install (hosted connector):** add `https://agent402.tools/mcp` as a remote
-MCP server - e.g. claude.ai → Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector. The
-pure-CPU tools run free there (rate-limited), and the paid tools are payable
-right on the connector over [MPP](https://agent402.tools/what-is-mpp): a paid
-call answers JSON-RPC error `-32042` carrying the challenges (`-32043` if a presented credential was refused), and an MCP client
-wrapped with `mppx`'s `McpClient.wrap()` (USDC on Base/Celo, or native Tempo)
-pays and retries on its own, receipt in `_meta`. For no rate limit, or to pay
-over x402 or with a credits key already issued, run this package locally:

-With a funded wallet (USDC on any EVM rail the server offers - Base, Polygon, Arbitrum, Monad, Celo, Avalanche, Sei, Optimism, Arc - or USDG on Robinhood Chain, or USDC on Solana via `SOLANA_AGENT_KEY`; the service also settles on Stellar and Algorand, which this package does not sign) - every tool available:
+**1. Free, no wallet.** Pure-CPU tools (no outbound calls, keys or models) run free. Each call solves a proof-of-work puzzle with your CPU, typically well under a second on a laptop. Tools that reach the network or a model ask for a wallet.

 ```
 
-With a prepaid credits key already issued (new credits are not on sale) - every tool except the wallet-scoped ones (memory, usage) is available:
+**2. Paid, with a wallet.** Paid tools are settled in USDC on each call.

+      "env": { "AGENT_KEY": "0xYOUR_PRIVATE_KEY" }
     }
   }
 }
 ```
 
-Without a wallet or credits key - the pure-CPU tools work free via proof-of-work (the network/browser/memory tools will ask for a wallet or a credits key):
+> Use a new wallet holding only a few dollars of USDC. Never use your main wallet.

+Use `SOLANA_AGENT_KEY` instead for USDC on Solana. Each call is capped at $4 by default; there is no session budget unless you set `AGENT402_BUDGET`.

 | `AGENT402_ASYNC` | `auto` | Slow routes (reports, video, the premium image; `async.recommended` on their `/api/pricing` row) are paid with `Prefer: respond-async` and collected from their job link, so a long run never outlives the connection. `off` waits on the connection instead (since 0.13.18 sending `Prefer: wait=<maxSeconds>` where the row gives `async.preferWait`); `always` uses a job on every route that runs as one. |

 The per-call cap is on by default and the session budget is opt-in; both are
 enforced on the payment that is signed (or before a credits call is sent) - a
-runaway model is refused, not billed. The
+call over the cap is refused before anything is signed. The
 wallet's x402 client carries a policy that drops every payment option over the
 per-call cap or what is left of the budget, so the 402 the wallet signs is held
 to the caps, and a wallet call sends no unpaid preflight first. Each option is priced from the
 known decimals of its asset (USDC on each rail, USDG on Robinhood Chain), never
 from a decimals value in the challenge, and an option in any other asset is not
 signed. A value that is not a USD amount or `off` reads as the default (the

 ## How it works
 
 - On startup the server reads the live catalog from `https://agent402.tools/api/pricing` + `/openapi.json`.
 - **Flagship tools** are exposed as first-class MCP tools under dotted names - `web.search`, `web.answer`, `web.news`, `browser.render`, `market.quote`, `audio.transcribe`, `memory.read`, `memory.write` - search/answer is the front door. Override the set with `AGENT402_TOOLS` (slugs; a non-flagship slug is listed as its snake_case name).
 - **Decide** (`decide.plan`, `decide.execute`, `decide.feedback`): describe a job and get a call-ready plan over the catalog and outside x402 sellers (tools in order, fallbacks, validated params, chained steps), then run it yourself or through Agent402. Listed when the server offers Decide; see https://agent402.tools/decide.
 - The rest of the 500+ tool catalog is reachable via the meta tools `catalog.search` / `catalog.find` + `catalog.call` - keeping your context window small. The same dotted names are listed on the hosted connector; the older snake names (`search_tools`, `find_tool`, `call_tool`, `get_payment_info`, `describe_server`, `list_top_sellers`, and the flagship `search_web` …) remain accepted as CallTool aliases, so existing configs keep working.
-- When a call hits HTTP 402: with a wallet key set (`AGENT_KEY` for the EVM chains, Robinhood Chain included; `SOLANA_AGENT_KEY` for Solana), the server signs an x402 payment on a chain the seller accepts and retries; with only a credits key it sends `Authorization: Bearer a402_…` and the server debits the balance on success; with neither it solves the tool's proof-of-work challenge (~0.2 s of CPU) on the eligible tools. (The service settles USDC on Base, Solana, Polygon, Arbitrum, Monad, Celo, Avalanche, Sei, Optimism, Arc, Stellar and Algorand, plus USDG on Robinhood Chain - 13 chains total - for callers using a raw x402 client rather than this package.)

Where the server also offers a Circle Gateway batched accept on Arc or Base, this package pays the plain accept beside it.)
 - Since 0.13.15 the server's requests to the catalog and to sellers (catalog reads, the 402 and the paid retry) refuse a TLS chain through one of the intermediate CAs listed in `networks.js` (keys reported recoverable in Mozilla bug 2083449), keyed on each certificate's SubjectPublicKeyInfo hash, on a dedicated dispatcher. With a proxy or custom dispatcher installed, requests go out through it unchanged.
 - **Slow routes run as jobs** (since 0.13.17): a paid call to a route the catalog marks slow carries `Prefer: respond-async`, answers `202` with a job link, and the server polls `GET /api/jobs/{id}` (free), waiting `Retry-After` seconds between polls, until the answer is ready, reading the job's `state` and falling back to its `status`. Payment settles only on the delivered answer. A caller that sends a `progressToken` gets `notifications/progress` from the job's stage, steps and ETA. A job still running when `AGENT402_ASYNC_TIMEOUT_MS` ends comes back with its `jobUrl` instead.
 - `payment.info` tells the model which mode it's in and what a wallet or a credits key would unlock.
