Install — Claude Code
claude mcp add cortex402 -- npx -y cortex402-mcpThen set the env var in your shell or in the config file produced.
Wallet setup
You need a wallet with USDC on Base mainnet (NOT Base Sepolia, NOT Ethereum mainnet). The wallet's private key goes in the CORTEX402_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY env var.
Easiest funding path:
Coinbase Wallet (self-custody app, not the exchange) → Buy crypto → USDC on Base network → debit card
~$5 USDC gives ~50 sanctions checks or ~50 aviation queries
Export the private key from Coinbase Wallet (Settings → Show recovery phrase → derive key)
Or use any existing Base mainnet wallet that you control the private key for.
What happens per call
Claude decides one of the CorteX402 tools is relevant to your question
The MCP server constructs the request and calls the corresponding
cortex402.vercel.appendpointThe endpoint returns HTTP 402 with payment requirements
The MCP server signs an EIP-3009 USDC transfer authorization with your wallet
Coinbase's CDP-authenticated facilitator settles the transfer on Base mainnet
The endpoint returns the data + an on-chain transaction hash receipt
Claude formats and returns the data to you
Total time per call: ~3–4 seconds end-to-end. No accounts, no API keys, no monthly minimums.
Security
Your private key is stored in your MCP client config and read via env var by this MCP server. The server never logs or transmits it.
All payments happen wallet-to-wallet on Base mainnet. No platform takes a cut.
Each successful call returns a Base mainnet transaction hash, permanently auditable.

Scored across 7 tools
Each tool targets a completely distinct domain (authentication, aviation weather, mortgage rates, property, sanctions, blockchain balance), with no overlapping functionality. An agent can easily distinguish them based on purpose.
All tool names follow a consistent pattern of lowercase words separated by underscores, typically combining two nouns (e.g., 'agent_session', 'aviation_weather', 'mortgage_rates'). There is no mixing of styles or irregular verbs.
With 7 tools, the count is within the reasonable range for a tool set. However, the broad scope covering multiple unrelated domains makes the number feel slightly more than if the server had a focused purpose.
The set lacks any coherent domain; each tool is a standalone call. For the implied purpose of a versatile data API, many common data needs are missing (e.g., stock prices, company info). Within each sub-domain, the coverage is minimal—typically just one operation per type.
