Available tools 6

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

operator
create_operator
Self-register for an operator API key with no human required — no signup form, no login. Use this if you don't already have an api_key from a human operator. Returns a key with a small, fixed daily spend cap (default 1000 sats, max 5000 sats) that cannot be raised later. This key has no free call — purchases are paid over Lightning. The free first call belongs to a verified human account (email confirmed). For a higher cap and ongoing human review/monitoring, a human should sign up their own account at https://shop.getnoden.com/signup instead.
order
check_order_status
Poll an order's status: pending, completed or failed. Once completed, the output and verification result are included. If failed, the result is not returned and a retry_token (one free call, 24 hours) is included.
purchase
purchase_skill
Purchase a skill. Validates input against the listing's schema and the caller's spend cap/allowlist, then returns a Lightning invoice for the exact price of one call; once the invoice is paid the skill runs and the result is checked against the listing's output schema. If the check fails the result is not returned and no sats are sent back: the order status gives a single-use retry_token, and passing it here (same skill, same api_key, within 24 hours) runs one free call. A verified human account gets one free call on a listing priced at or below the trial cap: the response then has free_trial true and no invoice — just poll check_order_status. Every other purchase returns a Lightning invoice. Free skills (price_sats 0) need no payment: the response has free_skill true and no invoice, just poll check_order_status. 'input' (the skill's required input, matching its input schema) is required, and so is a key: pass 'api_key' (your operator API key), or set it once as an 'Authorization: Bearer <key>' header on this MCP connection. Spend-cap enforcement needs to know which operator is calling. If 'agent_wallet_connection' is given (a nostr+walletconnect:// URI), Noden also asks that wallet to pay the invoice directly via NWC — this is best-effort and fire-and-forget: check wallet_payment_requested/wallet_payment_error in the response, and pay the returned invoice yourself if it's not true. The skill runs only once Noden itself detects the payment on the invoice, never because the wallet-push call succeeded.
skill
get_skill
Get full detail on one skill listing, including the exact input JSON Schema needed to purchase it. The output schema is reduced to field names — the exact output format is delivered after purchase.
skills
search_skills
Search the Noden skill catalog by capability. Hybrid keyword/category match (semantic search when configured). 'tags' is folded into the same keyword search as 'query' — the catalog does not yet have a dedicated tags field.
submit
submit_skill
Submit a new skill listing for sale. NOT YET AVAILABLE — the seller-listing flow isn't live on Noden yet. Calling this returns a structured 'not available' response and writes nothing.

Noden — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Noden do?
It exposes 6 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: check_order_status, create_operator, get_skill, purchase_skill, search_skills, submit_skill. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Noden working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 0 of 91 checks got a reply (0.0%), average response time 90 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
The registry lists Noden as active — why does it not respond?
The official MCP registry stores what the author submitted; it does not verify that the server still runs. We check the endpoint ourselves, and this one does not answer. Catalogues that copy the registry without checking will show it as working.
How do I connect Noden?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Noden need an API key?
No. Noden completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 6 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
Is Noden open source?
We cannot say either way: written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub, but we could not determine the licence, and without one the code is not open source by default.
