Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Payaion every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: PAYAION_API_KEY (Optional. Without it you upload as a guest: 100 MB per file, 24-hour link, no account. A key raises the limits and is required to sell. Get one at https://payaion.com/dashboard). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Payaion — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Payaion?

Payaion 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 @payaion/mcp was installed 187 times last week.

How do I connect Payaion?

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 @payaion/mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use Payaion?

The npm package @payaion/mcp was installed 187 times in the last week. Week over week that is +60%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
