Nothing serious here today

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

Available tools 18

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

video
video_complete
POST /v1/video/complete — optional cleanup after retrieve.
video_queue
POST /v1/video/queue — paid settle+enqueue. Prefer generate_video for agents.
video_quote
POST /v1/video/quote — no settle, no job. Check clears_now vs price ceiling vs funding before queue.
video_retrieve
POST /v1/video/retrieve — power-user status/media poll.
generate
generate_image
POST /v1/image/generate — intent tool for image generation. Rejects enable_web_search. Returns images plus cost trace.
generate_video
Intent tool: POST /v1/video/queue (settles then enqueues). Returns queue_id + cost. Confirm before calling — this spends prepaid USDC. Poll with get_generation_status or wait_for_video.
agent
agent_me
GET /v1/agent/me — balances, key prefix, max price. Pending USDC is not spendable until confirmed. If confirmed is low, call funding_instructions.
capacity
get_capacity
GET /v1/capacity — routable DIEM and price bands before funding or spend decisions.
chat
chat_completions
POST /v1/chat/completions (buffered). Pass a live model id from get_models. Returns completion plus cost trace headers.
funding
funding_instructions
How to fund a PZERO account and authenticate MCP. MCP never accepts payment or wallet keys. Fund via Studio x402 top-up or agent HTTP signup/refill, then use Authorization Bearer pzero_…
generation
get_generation_status
POST /v1/video/retrieve once — JSON status or delivered MP4.
key
create_key
POST /v1/agent/keys — mint another key. Does NOT add USDC credit. Plaintext shown once.
keys
list_keys
GET /v1/agent/keys — list active API key metadata (never plaintext).
max
set_max_price
PATCH /v1/agent/max-price — raise/lower ceiling (30-80). Use when tools return no_eligible_supply with cheapest_posted_cents. Does not auto-apply.
models
get_models
GET /v1/models — resolve a live model id before inference. Optional id retrieves one public row (same object as that id in the list). Do not hardcode model ids.
request
get_request
GET /v1/agent/requests/{support_reference} — recover cost/trace for a prior request.
revoke
revoke_key
DELETE /v1/agent/keys/{id} — irreversible. Do not revoke the key used by this MCP session unless intentional.
wait
wait_for_video
Poll video retrieve until delivered or failed. Backs off on 502.

PZERO — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can PZERO do?
It exposes 18 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: agent_me, chat_completions, create_key, funding_instructions, generate_image, generate_video and 12 more. 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 →
What is PZERO mostly used for?
Its tools cluster around video and generate. That is what this server is built to work with — the grouping comes from the actual tool names, not from a category we assigned.
Is PZERO working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 92 of 92 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 296 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect PZERO?
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 is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does PZERO need an API key?
No. PZERO completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 18 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is PZERO?
It answers our handshake in 296 ms on average, which is faster than 54% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
