Evidence

Things with no honest explanation: a promise that contradicts the code, code that runs at install time while hiding what it does, data leaving the machine.

Claims local-only, but the code calls out x402-guard/src/quotetext.ts:2275

Capabilities

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

Agent Wormhole — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Agent Wormhole?
Agent Wormhole 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 wormhole-x402 was installed 136 times last week.
How do I connect Agent Wormhole?
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 wormhole-x402 straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Agent Wormhole?
The npm package wormhole-x402 was installed 136 times in the last week. Week over week that is -87%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Agent Wormhole open source?
Yes — it is published under the Apache-2.0 licence, written in TypeScript, 5 stars on GitHub and 4 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
