## Description
Open-source EIP-2612 Permit-based wallet sessions for AI agents using MCP.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "mcp-agentic-wallet-open-source-session-management-for-x402": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","mcp-agentic-wallet-open-source-session-management-for-x402"]
  }
}

# MCP Agentic Wallet

> **Open-source EIP-2612 Permit-based wallet sessions for AI agents.**
> The reference implementation for paid MCP servers — verify signatures, manage sessions, settle on-chain. No API keys. No recurring charges.

## What This Is

A human connects their crypto wallet, signs a one-time **EIP-2612 Permit** (gasless — no transaction fee), and receives a **session token**. AI agents use this token in MCP requests to pay for tool calls with USDC on Base. The server settles each call on-chain via `transferFrom`.

**No API keys. No recurring charges. No per-call wallet signatures.** The permit is the policy.

This is the reference implementation used by [mcpvot.xyz](https://mcpvot.xyz) — an x402 payment facilitator for MCP servers. The open-source core (`@mcp-agentic-wallet/core`) is framework-agnostic and works with any MCP server or Next.js app.

## Quick Start

### 1. Install the core library

```bash
npm install @mcp-agentic-wallet/core viem
```

### 2. Use in your MCP server

```typescript
import { InMemoryStore, settleCall } from '@mcp-agentic-wallet/core';

const store = new InMemoryStore();

// In your MCP tool handler:
const token = req.headers.get('Session-Token');
const session = store.getSession(token);
if (!session) return new Response('Payment required', { status: 402 });

// Consume budget ($0.005 = 5000 atomic USDC units)
const result = store.consumeBudget(token, 5000n);
if (!result.ok) return new Response('Insufficient budget', { status: 402 });

// Settle on-chain
await settleCall(session.humanAddress, 5000n, {
  treasuryAddress: process.env.TREASURY_ADDRESS!,
  hotWalletKey: process.env.HOT_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY,
});

return Response.json({ result: 'your data' });
```

### 3. Run the reference server

```bash
git clone https://github.com/MCPVOT/mcp-agentic-wallet.git
cd mcp-agentic-wallet
npm install
cp .env.example .env.local  # Configure your treasury + hot wallet key
npm run dev
```

Visit `http://localhost:3000/wallet` to connect a wallet and authorize a session.

## Core Library (`@mcp-agentic-wallet/core`)

| Class/Function | Description |
|---|---|
| `InMemoryStore` | Session store (in-memory, pluggable for KV/Redis) |
| `verifyPermit()` | Verifies EIP-712 Permit signature on-chain via viem |
| `settleCall()` | Executes `transferFrom(human, treasury, amount)` on Base |
| `submitPermit()` | Submits the `permit()` transaction to USDC contract |
| `checkAllowance()` | Reads on-chain USDC allowance for an owner→spender pair |
| `checkRateLimit()` | Simple rate limiter (per-wallet) |
| `toSessionInfo()` | Converts session to safe client-facing info (no permit signature) |

## Security

See [SECURITY.md](./SECURITY.md) for the full threat model.

Key features:
- **EIP-712 signature verification** — server verifies every permit signature on-chain before creating a session
- **Allowance cap** — max $100 USDC per session (configurable)
- **Deadline cap** — max 30 days
- **Rate limiting** — 5 authorizations per wallet per hour
- **Session revocation** — humans can revoke anytime
- **Settlement debt tracking** — sessions suspended after 3 failed settlements
- **Spender verification** — EIP-712 verification inherently checks `spender === treasury`

## Tech Stack

- **EIP-2612** (Permit) — gasless approval via typed data signature
- **EIP-712** — typed data signing and verification
- **USDC** (FiatTokenV2) on **Base Mainnet** (chainId 8453)
- **viem** — TypeScript Ethereum library
- **Next.js** — reference server implementation
- **Model Context Protocol** — MCP 2025-11-25 spec

## Use Case: iRacing + Blockchain

MCPVOT uses this wallet to power **on-chain sim-racing events**:

1. **Host creates event** — deploys an escrow smart contract on Base with entry fee + prize pool
2. **Drivers connect wallet** — sign EIP-2612 Permit via this library, get a session token
3. **Drivers pay entry fee** — `transferFrom` settles the entry to the escrow contract
4. **Race happens in iRacing** — server polls iRacing Data API for finish order
5. **Smart contract auto-disburses** — verified winners receive USDC/SOL from the prize pool

The iRacing MCP tools (`get_race_results`, `lookup_driver`, `search_hosted_races`) are available at [mcpvot.xyz](https://mcpvot.xyz) and use the same session-token flow for payment.

## Configuration

| Env Var | Required | Default | Description |
|---------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `TREASURY_ADDRESS` | Yes | — | Address that receives USDC payments |
| `HOT_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY` | Yes | — | EOA private key for gas (never commit to git!) |
| `BASE_RPC_URL` | No | `https://mainnet.base.org` | Base Mainnet RPC |
| `NEXT_PUBLIC_TREASURY_ADDRESS` | Yes | — | Treasury shown in wallet UI |
