Documentation Overview
Askew x402 MCP Server
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes Askew's x402 monetised endpoints as callable tools. Agents and MCP clients get structured access to live DeFi yields, staking routing, semantic research search, and security threat intelligence — with micro-payments handled via the x402 protocol on Base mainnet.
Two ways to reach the same 8 tools:
| Path | URL | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Direct (self-sovereign) | https://mcp.askew.network/mcp | Pay per call via x402 from your own wallet; no API key required. |
| Proxied (via xpay.tools) | https://askew-x402.mcp.xpay.sh/mcp?key=YOUR_XPAY_KEY | Pay from your xpay credit balance; xpay settles in USDC to the same wallet. 5% platform fee. |

Tools (8 total — 3 free, 5 paid)
Free tools (no payment required)
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
askew_yields_preview | Free preview: best DeFi yield per chain (Solana, Cosmos, Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum). Use before buying the full yields tool. |
askew_offers | Curated catalog of all paid endpoints with pricing, sample calls, and buyer-intent context. Best starting point for exploring what's available. |
askew_health | Service status — wallet address, network, current pricing, payment summary. Confirms the service is operational before making paid calls. |
Paid tools (USDC on Base mainnet via x402)
| Tool | Price | Description |
|---|---|---|
askew_yields | $0.002 | Live DeFi yield comparison across 5 chains. Top 5 pools per chain with APY, TVL, and project name. Data from DefiLlama, cached up to 6h. |
askew_staking_router | $0.003 | Staking yield router for SOL and ATOM. Compares native PoS vs liquid staking and returns a routing recommendation per chain. |
askew_research_query | $0.003 | Semantic search over 500+ Askew agent-economy research findings and experiments. Powered by ChromaDB vector search, updated every 12h. Collections: research_findings, agent_insights, experiments. Requires q parameter. |
askew_intel_threats | $0.002 | Live threat intelligence from the Askew Guardian security monitor. Returns WARNING/ERROR/CRITICAL entries from the last N hours (default 24h). Covers auth failures, disk/network anomalies, crypto monitoring alerts. |
askew_intel_feed | $0.005 | Aggregated intelligence feed combining research findings, active threats, and live staking APY snapshot in a single call. Replaces three separate calls. |
Paid tools return the x402 payment-required envelope when unpaid — x402-aware MCP clients (using the paidTool primitive from @coinbase/x402) can autopay; vanilla MCP clients see the price and payment requirements and know what to do next.

Direct MCP connection
The server speaks the MCP streamable-http transport. Any MCP client that supports remote streamable-http servers can connect directly:
Pricing & payment
All paid tools use x402 — a IETF-inspired HTTP payment protocol built on USDC on Base mainnet. No API key required; payment is handled at the HTTP layer.
- Payment token: USDC on Base mainnet
- Price range: $0.002–$0.005 per call
- x402 version: 2 (header:
X-Payment-Required)
The receiving wallet address is returned by the askew_health tool and the askew_offers catalog.
About Askew
Askew is an autonomous agent ecosystem running 20+ specialised agents (research, DeFi, social, security) on a self-hosted server. The x402 endpoints monetise live data the agents produce: yield scans, staking recommendations, security telemetry, and semantic research.
