agenticpay
Supports using Coinbase CDP as a facilitator for mainnet USDC payment settlement on Solana.
Provides LangChain.js and LangChain Python integrations for paid tool calls in LangChain agents.
Allows OpenAI Custom GPTs to use paid tools via the agenticpay middleware and action schema.
Enables USDC micropayment settlement on Solana with sub-cent fees and ~1.5 second finality.
Offers Vercel AI SDK helpers to add paid tools to generateText/streamText workflows.
agenticpay
Get paid by AI agents. Open-source payment infrastructure for the MCP ecosystem — declare a price on any tool, agents pay in USDC over x402, settles on Solana in ~1.5 seconds.
No Stripe. No accounts. No API keys.
The full stack is here — SDK, CLI, paywall middleware, self-hosted x402 facilitator, and a live LLM agent demo. All TypeScript, MIT licensed.

Live demo
A real Claude Opus agent receives a task, decides which paid tools to use, pays autonomously via x402 micropayments on Solana, and answers the user.
$ pnpm --filter @agenticpay/two-agent-demo agent
Agent wallet: 3rHoEumCpH8EGrr6Lq2vBKeyec6h3yPRGj2nGG2FzEfX
Server: http://localhost:4021
Facilitator: http://localhost:4022 ← our own
Model: claude-opus-4-7
Task: Reverse the string 'agentpay rocks' and tell me how many words
are in 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog'.
[turn 1] tool_use: reverse_string({"text":"agenticpay rocks"}) → paying $0.001 USDC ...
✓ paid + got result in 1596ms: {"result":"skcor yaptnega"}
[turn 1] tool_use: word_count({"text":"The quick..."}) → paying $0.0005 USDC ...
✓ paid + got result in 1286ms: {"count":9}
Agent final answer:
1. Reversed string: skcor yaptnega
2. Word count: 9 words
=== payments summary ===
reverse_string $0.0010 USDC 1596ms

Why
The current AI agent stack assumes humans hold the credit card. That breaks the moment agents act on their own initiative — calling APIs, hiring sub-agents, paying for compute. You can't OAuth your way through it.
Stablecoin micropayments over HTTP fix it. agenticpay packages the missing ergonomics for the MCP ecosystem specifically: any tool can declare a price, any agent can pay it, and the whole pipeline — including the facilitator that actually submits the on-chain settlement — is open source and self-hostable.

Solana
(USDC SPL,
sub-cent fees)You can also point mcp-server at the public x402.org/facilitator for
testnet/devnet, or at Coinbase CDP for mainnet. We just made the
self-hosted route easy.
Packages
Package | What it does |
| TypeScript primitives: USDC transfers, wallet management, network config |
|
|
| HTTP server with x402 paywall middleware. Each tool has a price. |
| Self-hosted x402 facilitator — verify + settle USDC payments on Solana. Pays SOL fees on behalf of agents. |
| Eliza plugin — wraps paid HTTP endpoints as native Eliza Actions. Solana-native AI agents pay per tool call. |
| Vercel AI SDK helpers — drop paid tools straight into |
| Real MCP server (stdio + |
| Real Claude Opus agent paying for tool calls |
Install
npm install @agenticpay/sdk # Solana + USDC primitives
npm install -g @agenticpay/cli # `agenticpay` command
npm install @agenticpay/mcp-server # paywalled HTTP server
npm install @agenticpay/facilitator # self-hosted x402 facilitator
npm install @agenticpay/eliza-plugin # Eliza plugin (Solana-native agents)
npm install @agenticpay/ai-sdk # Vercel AI SDK paid tools
npm install -g @agenticpay/mcp-bridge # MCP server for Claude Desktop / CursorOr clone the monorepo to get the live two-agent demo and edit-friendly templates (recommended for first run — see Quickstart below).
Use with Claude Code
This repo ships an Anthropic Skill
at .claude/skills/agenticpay/SKILL.md. Copy it into your ~/.claude/skills/
to give Claude Code first-class context about agenticpay — it'll then walk you
through monetizing an MCP server, generating tool routes, and verifying
on-chain settlements without re-reading the README every time.
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r .claude/skills/agenticpay ~/.claude/skills/Quickstart (devnet, ~5 minutes, free)
# 1. Install
pnpm install
pnpm -r build
# 2. Generate a payer wallet, fund it on devnet
node packages/cli/dist/index.js wallet new
node packages/cli/dist/index.js wallet show
# → fund SOL at https://faucet.solana.com (paste pubkey)
# → fund USDC at https://faucet.circle.com (Solana Devnet, same pubkey)
# 3. (option A — fastest) Use our hosted devnet facilitator. Skip step 4.
export FACILITATOR_URL=https://agentpay-facilitator-e9b20a5fee6a.herokuapp.com
# 3. (option B — fully self-hosted) Start your own facilitator (terminal 1)
pnpm --filter @agenticpay/facilitator dev
# Note the printed feePayer address. It needs ~0.05 SOL devnet to cover fees.
# Either airdrop or use the helper:
pnpm --filter @agenticpay/facilitator fund
export FACILITATOR_URL=http://localhost:4022
# 4. Start the paywalled mcp-server (terminal 2)
PAY_TO=<recipient pubkey> pnpm --filter @agenticpay/mcp-server dev
# 5. Run the live LLM agent demo (terminal 3, needs ANTHROPIC_API_KEY in .env)
pnpm --filter @agenticpay/two-agent-demo agentFramework integrations

Status
Pre-alpha. Devnet validated end-to-end. Mainnet config supported but requires funding the facilitator with real SOL and pointing at a mainnet-capable RPC (Helius, QuickNode, etc.).
Roadmap
Devnet end-to-end demo (smoke + LLM agent)
Self-hosted x402 facilitator (verify + settle, fee_payer abstraction)
Real-world MCP server template (search, fetch, summarize, extract — instead of toy
reverse_string)On-chain escrow for long-running tasks (Anchor program)
Agent reputation registry on-chain
Hosted facilitator service (
agenticpay.com)
What's a facilitator?
If you've never seen x402 before: the facilitator is the trusted middleman that (1) verifies an agent's signed payment payload, (2) submits the USDC transfer on-chain, and (3) pays the SOL gas fees so the agent doesn't need any SOL — only USDC. Most MCP devs don't want to run their own; they point at a hosted one.
This repo ships a complete facilitator implementation. You can self-host it, fork it, audit it, or deploy it as a service for your own users.
