This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: AGENT_PAY_BURNER_SEED (32-byte hex secret the per-merchant payer addresses are derived from. Never your owner key.), AGENT_PAY_AGENT_KEY (The budget's agent key (needed when a vault is configured).). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Agent Pay MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Agent Pay MCP?
Agent Pay MCP runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @deepfirstsearch/agent-pay-mcp was installed 1 532 times last week.
How do I connect Agent Pay MCP?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @deepfirstsearch/agent-pay-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Agent Pay MCP?
The npm package @deepfirstsearch/agent-pay-mcp was installed 1 532 times in the last week. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Agent Pay MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 1 stars on GitHub and 14 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
