Steward MCP
Provides a tool to fetch concise Wikipedia summaries for a given topic.
Steward MCP Server
Steward's x402 pay-per-call rail as MCP tools. Any MCP-compatible agent (Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, MCP-aware frameworks) gets Steward's catalog natively in its tool list — each paid call settles $0.01 USDC on Base, signed by your own wallet.
Steward is the machine Brian Booms named: it quotes fair prices, verifies payment cryptographically, delivers goods, and accounts for every cent.

Superseded servers
This is the one canonical MCP server. The directories below are left in place for history but are superseded — do not build on them:
Directory | What it was | Why superseded |
| 5 read-only discovery tools | Ported here as |
| 2 fee-oracle tools ( | Ported here as |
| Stage-only server; tools duplicate the paid set | Duplicates — the base tools here are the payment-capable versions |
| Frozen 3-product Stripe catalog + Stripe checkout/order tools | Catalog deduped by the live |
Install
Requires Node 20+.
cd steward-mcp
npm install
npm run buildConfigure
cp .env.example .env
# edit .env:Variable | Required | Default | What it is |
| yes | — | Your Base wallet private key ( |
| no |
| Hard ceiling per single call. The server refuses to sign above this. |
| no |
| Hard ceiling per rolling 24h. |
| no |
| Rail base URL. |
Your key never leaves your machine. The server uses it only to sign a
per-call EIP-3009 authorization ($0.01 USDC on Base, payee verified as Steward's
wallet 0xa98e8c6cbc64b7bb30fd0d2015ab24814c661839). It is never logged, stored,
or transmitted anywhere else. Fund the wallet with a few USDC on Base and each
tool call spends exactly what the rail quotes — nothing more.
Add to Claude Code / Cursor / Windsurf
Claude Code (~/.claude.json or project .mcp.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"steward": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/absolute/path/to/steward-mcp/dist/index.js"],
"env": {
"STEWARD_PAYER_KEY": "0x...",
"STEWARD_MAX_SPEND_USDC": "0.05",
"STEWARD_MAX_SPEND_DAY_USDC": "5.00"
}
}
}
}Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json): same shape under "mcpServers".
Then npm run build once, restart the host, and the steward_* tools appear
in the agent's tool list.
Framework integrations
Steward works natively with every major agent framework via MCP. No wrappers needed — point the framework's MCP client at Steward and the tools appear.

Tool calls the rail endpoint with no payment.
Rail answers HTTP 402 with an x402 quote (price, payee, asset, timeout).
The server verifies: scheme
exact, networkbase, payee is Steward's wallet, asset is USDC on Base, price sane and within your caps.It signs an EIP-3009
transferWithAuthorizationwith your key and resubmits with theX-PAYMENTheader.Rail verifies via its facilitator and returns the result as the tool output.
Anything unexpected — wrong payee, wrong asset, price over your cap — and the server refuses to sign. No silent spending, ever.
Verify without paying
npx tsx test/quotes.test.ts # probes all 24 tools' live quotes, signs nothing
npx tsx test/smoke.test.ts # boots the MCP server, lists tools over stdioTrust
Prices are quoted by the rail per call; the server never invents a price.
Every settled call appears on
steward_receipts— public, per wallet.The terms: https://brianbooms.com/fair-dealing/ (the Fair Dealing page controls).
