Available tools 4

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

account
get_account_status
Look up a keyless Shieldz account by its manage_token (returned when you create a payment link or tip jar). Returns settlement details, tip jars, totals (paid/pending), and the invoice list as structured JSON.
payment
create_payment_link
Create a one-time crypto payment link with ZERO setup, no account, no API key. Give a destination wallet address and an amount; get back a shareable pay_url, an embeddable button, and a manage_url. Non-custodial: funds settle directly to the address you provide.
tip
create_tip_jar
Create a reusable 'pay what you want' tip jar with ZERO setup. The payer chooses the amount. Returns a shareable /tip url, an embeddable button, and a manage_url. Idempotent per wallet address. Non-custodial.
unlock
create_unlock
Create a keyless pay-to-unlock page: sell a file link, license key, or secret text (up to 100,000 chars). The buyer pays the set USD price in crypto straight to the given wallet, then the payload is revealed on their paid confirmation, never before. To deliver an actual file (PDF/zip/etc, 10 MB) use the multipart HTTP API at /api/v1/unlocks instead. Non-custodial, no account, no API key. IMPORTANT: the acceptable-use policy forbids adult, illegal, or non-consensual content; confirm this with your principal and pass aup_accepted=true, otherwise the call fails.

ShieldZCash — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can ShieldZCash do?
It exposes 4 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_payment_link, create_tip_jar, create_unlock, get_account_status. 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 ShieldZCash 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 145 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect ShieldZCash?
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 ShieldZCash need an API key?
No. ShieldZCash completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 4 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is ShieldZCash?
It answers our handshake in 145 ms on average, which is faster than 84% of all working MCP servers we measure. That puts it in the quick quarter of the ecosystem. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use ShieldZCash?
The npm package @shieldz/mcp was installed 47 times in the last week. Week over week that is +213%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is ShieldZCash open source?
The code is open source: it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript, 0 stars on GitHub and 1 open issue. The licence covers the code in the repository, not the hosted service at shieldz.cash, which runs on its operator's own terms.
