SoapBox Faith — MCP Server
Faith tools for AI agents: cited, public-domain (KJV) Scripture, ORA Bible Q&A, real sermon search, a church directory, and consent-gated prayer & giving. This is the official Model Context Protocol server for SoapBox Super App.
It's a thin protocol adapter: it speaks MCP (JSON-RPC 2.0 over Streamable HTTP) and forwards each tool call to SoapBox's hosted Faith Content API, which owns the auth, metering, and content logic.
Hosted endpoint (no need to run this yourself):
https://foyekanoxpnkydoibaas.supabase.co/functions/v1/faith-mcpTransport: Streamable HTTP (JSON-RPC 2.0)
Connect guide: https://soapboxsuperapp.com/for-agents · API reference: https://soapboxsuperapp.com/developers
Auth — keyless-first
The read tools need no API key — point your client at the endpoint and call them (per-IP rate-limited). A key is required only for tools that cost money to run or act on a user's behalf. Pass it as Authorization: Bearer <key> when needed; self-serve one at https://soapboxsuperapp.com/developers.
Free (no key) | Key required |

Prayer and giving additionally require an explicit, user-issued consent token (they act on a real person's behalf). Prayer submits a request to a live human community prayer wall — the AI does not "pray for you." Giving is passthrough — SoapBox takes no cut of donations.
Buying content. pay_with_x402 is keyless — the payment itself is the credential — and it is the only way an agent buys a paid sermon or bundle. The prepaid marketplace-credit tools (purchase_sermon, purchase_bundle) were retired on 2026-07-15: their endpoints answer HTTP 410, and they are no longer listed. A purchase is a content sale, never a donation — the church keeps 70% of net and SoapBox is Merchant of Record on sales only. get_api_key_status (called get_credit_balance before 2.0.0, which still routes but is unlisted) survives only to report your key's tier and daily rate limit; its balance field is always 0 and gates nothing.

Highlights
Anti-hallucination: call
verify_scripturebefore presenting any Bible quote — it confirms the quote is real and cited to the correct KJV reference.Grounded Q&A:
ask_orareturns KJV-cited answers (a study aid, crisis-safe — not a counselor).Real, consented content:
search_sermonscovers sermons pastors explicitly opted in to share with agents.Agent-native payments:
pay_with_x402pays per-call in USDC on Base (x402) — no account required. The paying wallet signs for its own payment, so a transaction hash alone can't be spent by anyone who sees it on-chain.
Run it yourself
# Deno 2.x
deno run --allow-net --allow-env index.ts # serves on http://localhost:8000
# or Docker
docker build -t soapbox-faith .
docker run -p 8000:8000 soapbox-faithSUPABASE_URL defaults to the production host, so read tools work out of the box. The MCP handshake (initialize, tools/list, resources/list) needs no configuration.
