Install mercury-x402-mcp

The server’s own address, for the clients that take one directly. Or connect Ahel once and every client you use reads it from one address, with the account kept on Ahel rather than in each client’s config.

  • Claude Code

    claude mcp add --transport http --scope user mercury-x402-mcp 'https://network.mercury-hq.com/mcp'

    Run it once in your project, then open /mcp to approve any sign-in the server asks for.

  • Claude Desktop

    https://network.mercury-hq.com/mcp

    Add a custom connector in Settings, paste this address, and approve the sign-in.

  • Cursor

    cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install?name=mercury-x402-mcp&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL25ldHdvcmsubWVyY3VyeS1ocS5jb20vbWNwIn0=

    Open the link and Cursor adds the server at that address.

  • ChatGPT

    https://network.mercury-hq.com/mcp

    In Settings, enable Developer mode, create an MCP app, and paste this address. Your plan and workspace must allow custom apps.

  • Codex

    codex mcp add mercury-x402-mcp --url 'https://network.mercury-hq.com/mcp'

    Run it once, then sign in with codex mcp login mercury-x402-mcp if the server asks for an account.

From the project's README

As published by mercuryx402/mercury-x402-mcp in README.md.

17 keyless, signed-provenance web-data tools your AI agent can pay for itself — over x402 on Base mainnet (USDC). No Mercury API key, no account, no signup. Your agent calls a tool, it pays the SKU with your wallet, and gets back the result plus an EIP-191 provenance receipt it can verify offline, forever.

Tools include: clean fetch, LLM-ready markdown, structured extract, link graph, robots, diff, notarize, headers, table extract, feed, availability, validate, batch, sitemap, DNS, readability, redirect — built live from Mercury's catalog, so the list is always current.

Install

npx mercury-x402-mcp

Add to your MCP host (Claude Desktop / Cursor / Cline / any MCP client):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mercury": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mercury-x402-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "MERCURY_PRIVATE_KEY": "0xYOUR_BASE_MAINNET_WALLET_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

MERCURY_PRIVATE_KEY is your Base-mainnet wallet (funded with a little USDC). Mercury is keyless — the only thing you bring is a wallet to pay per call. Tools cost ~$0.003–$0.02 each.

The mercury_catalog and mercury_verify tools work without a wallet (free).

Why

Firecrawl / Jina / Tavily all gate behind a human-created API key + a credit-card plan — an agent can't onboard itself. Mercury can: an agent discovers the tools, pays over x402, and every result is cryptographically signed so the bytes are provably genuine and untampered — what RAG, trading, and agent-to-agent commerce actually need.
