Put your own value in place of <ORCPIN_PRIVATE_KEY> (Private key (0x + 64 hex) of a dedicated, low-balance Base wallet holding a few dollars of USDC. Used only to sign gasless x402 payment authorizations; never transmitted. A door report costs about $50, so fund for what you intend to buy). The author’s registry entry marks it as required.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above: ORCPIN_TOOLSETS (Optional comma-separated subset of tools to expose: "defi" (chain + endpoint-reliability tools) and/or "trading" (trade-log calculators). Default: all ten paid tools. The free directory tool is always exposed; the ledger tools (statement, door report) are exposed regardless of this setting), X402_NETWORK (x402 network id. Default eip155:8453 (Base mainnet)).

Orcpin — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Orcpin?
Orcpin 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 orcpin-mcp was installed 117 times last week.
How do I connect Orcpin?
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 runs locally, so the command pulls orcpin-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Orcpin?
The npm package orcpin-mcp was installed 117 times in the last week. Week over week that is +33%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
