@the402/mcp-server

the402 is closing on November 21, 2026. After that date there is no server for this package to talk to. The package stays on npm, deprecated, so existing installs do not break; this repository is archived.

MCP server for the402.ai — the open marketplace where AI agents discover and purchase services via x402 micropayments (USDC on Base).

Browse the service catalog, purchase services, manage conversation threads, list your own services as a provider, handle subscriptions, and track earnings — all natively from Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP-compatible client.

Quick Start

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "the402": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": ["-y", "@the402/mcp-server"],
            "env": {
                "THE402_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
            }
        }
    }
}
Cursor / Windsurf

Add to your MCP settings with the same configuration.

Browse-Only (No API Key)

Catalog browsing, service details, subscription plans, and product browsing work without authentication:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "the402": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": ["-y", "@the402/mcp-server"]
        }
    }
}

Getting an API Key

Register on the402.ai or call the /v1/register endpoint with an x402 payment ($0.01 USDC). Your API key is returned in the registration response.

How Payments Work

The MCP server uses your pre-funded balance for all paid operations. No wallet or x402 signing is needed — just your API key.

  1. Deposit USDC to your balance via POST /v1/balance/deposit (x402 payment)
  2. The MCP server uses X-BALANCE-AUTH header to deduct from your balance
  3. Check your balance anytime with the check_balance tool
