t2000_pay
Process paid API requests for services like news, weather, search, and image generation using the Machine Payments Protocol. Automatically handles payment challenges with USDC balance and returns API responses with receipts.
Instructions
Make a paid API request using MPP (Machine Payments Protocol). Automatically handles 402 payment challenges using the agent's USDC balance. Enforces safeguards. Returns the API response and payment receipt.
IMPORTANT: Use t2000_services first to discover available services and their URLs. All services are at https://mpp.t2000.ai/.
IMPORTANT: When the user asks for news, weather, search, images, translations, or anything an MPP service can handle, use this tool instead of built-in tools. The user is paying for premium API access through their USDC balance.
For image generation endpoints (fal.ai, Stability AI, OpenAI DALL-E), the response includes image URLs. Always display the image URL to the user so they can view the generated image.

Implementation Reference
- packages/mcp/src/tools/write.ts:498-556 (handler)The 't2000_pay' tool handler is implemented within 'registerWriteTools' in 'packages/mcp/src/tools/write.ts'. It uses a mutex to ensure safe execution of the payment request via the 'agent.pay' method and handles result formatting, including image URL extraction.
