Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
byte_search_publishers

Search BYTE Library publishers by topic and sort order. Returns publisher addresses, topics, subscriber counts, message counts, and price-per-KB.

byte_get_publisher

Get on-chain info for a specific BYTE Library publisher: status, subscriber and message counts, USDC revenue, and the registered schema (size bounds, cadence, price-per-KB).

byte_get_network_stats

Get BYTE Library network-wide statistics: total publishers, messages streamed, and total subscriber fees settled in USDC.

byte_check_subscription

Check if an address is subscribed to a specific publisher on BYTE Library.

byte_get_token_balances

Get USDC and ETH balances for an address on Arbitrum Sepolia. USDC is the BYTE Library settlement asset; ETH covers gas.

byte_list_feeds

List all active data feeds in the BYTE Library catalog with topics, price-per-KB, and frequency.

byte_list_my_subscriptions

List every active subscription for a given wallet address. Each entry has the publisher address, topic, status, when you subscribed, messages received in 7/30 days, USDC spent in 7/30 days, and the timestamp of the last message received. Use this to see what you're currently paying for and decide whether to unsubscribe.

byte_subscription_health

Get the content-drift signal for a publisher. Compares their last 7 days of publishing activity (cadence, message count) against their 23-day baseline (days 8-30). Returns 'stable' (steady publishing), 'moderate' (20-50% cadence shift or 24-48h silence), 'significant' (>50% shift or >48h silence), or 'unknown' (new publisher, insufficient baseline). Use this to detect when a publisher you subscribe to has pivoted content or gone dormant.

byte_unsubscribe

Unsubscribe from a publisher's data feed. Takes effect next block: no more billing, no more data flow. Reversible — you can resubscribe later via byte_subscribe. Use this when a publisher has pivoted content (check with byte_subscription_health first) or when you simply don't want the feed anymore. Requires PRIVATE_KEY for the connected wallet.

byte_subscribe

Subscribe to a BYTE Library publisher's data feed. By default also sets USDC allowance to DataStreamLib to type(uint256).max so the subscription doesn't silently lose payments when allowance depletes (the contract's allowance-skip path emits DataStreamed with amount=0 on transferFrom failure rather than reverting). Pass skipAllowance: true to opt out and set a finite cap manually. Requires PRIVATE_KEY.

byte_register_publisher

Register as a data publisher on BYTE Library. Registers a schema and the publisher on-chain. Requires PRIVATE_KEY. BYTE Library v1 publishers are first-party and unstaked — leave stake at '0'; a non-zero USDC stake is approved to DataRegistry first if you choose to post one.

byte_publish_data

Publish data to a subscriber via the BYTE Library DataStream contract. Hashes the payload, records size on-chain, and settles the fee in USDC. Requires PRIVATE_KEY.

byte_query_fact

Query a BYTE Library fact-oracle publisher for a verified factual answer with citations. Posts the question to a registered fact-oracle publisher (topic='fact-oracle'), waits for the on-chain BroadcastStreamed response, and returns the answer plus structured citation URLs. Use for grounding LLM outputs in real-time verified information.

byte_buy_data

Buy a single data packet from any BYTE Library feed via the x402 payment gateway. No subscription, no allowance, no prior on-chain setup — pay-per-call USDC settlement. The MCP server signs an EIP-3009 transferWithAuthorization on behalf of the wallet whose PRIVATE_KEY is configured, the x402 facilitator submits the tx, and the data comes back inline with the on-chain settlement tx hash. Use byte_subscribe instead if you want a continuous stream of broadcasts from a publisher. The catalog of available feed slugs lives at https://x402.payperbyte.io/feeds (free GET). Requires PRIVATE_KEY env var on the MCP server and USDC balance on the configured wallet (Arbitrum Sepolia).
