1cent Web Intelligence for AI Agents

Give AI agents safe, bounded web intelligence without subscriptions, API keys or handing a crawler unrestricted network access. Start with three free MCP tools; pay only for the URL operation used. Production uses x402 v2, Base Mainnet USDC and PayAI.

Try the real safe fetch path in one command — fixed example.com, no payment:

curl -sS https://1cent.maxzoa.ru/v1/demo/live-pulse

• MCP: https://1cent.maxzoa.ru/mcp

• Free product demo: https://1cent.maxzoa.ru/v1/demo/pulse

• Free live demo: https://1cent.maxzoa.ru/v1/demo/live-pulse

• Live catalog/prices: https://1cent.maxzoa.ru/v1/catalog

• Public trust status: https://1cent.maxzoa.ru/status.json

• Buyer guide: https://1cent.maxzoa.ru/docs/getting-started

Production exposes 32 paid REST/MCP operations plus three free MCP tools:

• catalog_search — find the correct operation and live price without a URL fetch;

• demo_url_pulse — inspect a fixed precomputed output sample without payment or network access.

• demo_live_url_pulse — run the real safe service against fixed example.com, rate-limited.

MCP also publishes one buyer prompt (choose_url_tool) and one static buyer-guide resource (onecent://buyer-guide). Every input field includes constraints, examples and machine-readable descriptions so agents can choose and call tools correctly on the first attempt.

Glama release verification uses the repository's onecent-glama stdio entry point. It loads the same MCP tool registry as production for schema inspection; it does not provide a payment bypass or a second implementation of paid URL operations.

Directory status is checked with dated evidence in Marketplace quality report. A page returning HTTP 200 alone is not counted as a successful listing: it must be searchable, current and installable.

Buyer setup starts with a no-payment diagnostic:

onecent doctor

For MCP clients without native x402 signing, install the local Buyer Bridge:

pipx install "onecent[buyer] @ git+https://github.com/maxzoa/1cent.git"
onecent wallet set
onecent bridge --max-usdc-per-call 0.001 --daily-limit-usdc 0.01

Manual one-call approval is the default. The OS keyring holds the buyer secret; 1cent, remote MCP and catalog services never receive it. UNKNOWN outcomes are never retried. See Buyer Bridge for Claude, Cursor, VS Code and Codex setup.

The direct CLI also refuses a paid call unless the buyer explicitly supplies a maximum amount, confirms Base Mainnet and types the one-call confirmation. See examples/buyer-python and examples/buyer-node.

PostgreSQL is the runtime source for tool availability and atomic Base USDC prices. Config values are clean-install fallbacks. Paid URL work begins only after successful payment checks.

Safety contract

• public HTTP/HTTPS only; private, loopback, link-local and rebinding destinations fail closed;

• strict input schemas; unknown fields rejected;

• bounded redirects, response bodies, extracted text, concurrency and queue depth;

• payment identifier, request fingerprint and idempotent replay protection;

• UNKNOWN settlement never retried automatically;

• no seller private key, buyer key, Docker socket or JavaScript execution on the server;

• Streamable HTTP host/origin protection enabled for remote MCP.

Local quality checks

Local Docker start

Copy .env.example to .env, replace placeholders, keep X402_ENVIRONMENT=testnet and X402_NETWORK=eip155:84532, then:

docker compose up -d --build
docker compose ps

Container UID/GID: 10001:10001. No host bind-mounted writable directory is required. This local example is intentionally testnet. Production mainnet activation requires owner approval, a fresh PostgreSQL backup, production preflight, development bypass disabled and rollback readiness.
