This one needs environment variables set before it will start: X402_PRIVATE_KEY (Base EOA private key (hex, 0x-prefixed) with USDC for signing x402 payments). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

X402 MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for X402 MCP?
X402 MCP 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 x402node-mcp was installed 59 times last week.
How do I connect X402 MCP?
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 runs locally, so the command pulls x402node-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use X402 MCP?
The npm package x402node-mcp was installed 59 times in the last week. Week over week that is -39%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is X402 MCP open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in JavaScript, 1 stars on GitHub and 7 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
