MCP x402 — Evidence-Backed Web Verification for AI Agents

Verify a seller, product, offer, policy, or claim before an agent acts

Give an AI agent a public HTTP(S) page and 1 to 10 concrete conditions. The verificar_condicoes tool returns an evidence-based decision for every condition:

• confirmado — the page clearly supports the condition.
• rejeitado — the page clearly contradicts the condition.
• incerto — the available page evidence is insufficient.

Each verification includes the final source URL, page title, timestamp, condition-by-condition explanation, quoted evidence when available, a unique verificationId, and a SHA-256 pageHash.

Designed for

• AI purchasing and procurement agents;
• seller, product and offer verification;
• pre-purchase due diligence;
• policy and terms checking;
• commercial automation that requires evidence before taking action.

• $0.05 USDC per verification on Base mainnet.
• No account or subscription required.
• Available through MCP and HTTP.
• Ready-to-run buyer included in this repository.
• Bazaar discovery metadata enabled on the paid HTTP and MCP surfaces.

Decision verification

verificar_condicoes — $0.05 USDC

A paid decision-verification tool for agents.

Give it a public URL and one or more concrete conditions. It returns a decision based only on evidence extracted from that page:

• confirmado — the page clearly proves the condition.
• rejeitado — the page clearly contradicts the condition.
• incerto — the page does not provide enough evidence.

Each result includes the final source URL, page title, verification timestamp, condition-by-condition explanation, and a short quoted proof where available.

Example conditions:

• “The page identifies the seller.”
• “The product is available in Portugal.”
• “The page shows a price in euros.”
• “The document states that the service supports x402.”

This is designed for agents that need an evidence-based decision before taking the next action.

Environment Variables

Server

Local Buyer

Example local .env.test file:

EVM_PRIVATE_KEY=your_private_key_here

Local Development

Install dependencies:

npm install

Start the development server:

npm run dev

Build the project:

npm run build

Start the compiled server:

npm start

Health Check

The health endpoint is public and does not require payment:

curl https://mcp-x402-production.up.railway.app/health

Ready-to-Run x402 Buyer

The repository includes ready-to-run buyers for applications and AI agents. The MCP buyer connects to the live service, validates the x402 payment requirements against Base mainnet USDC and a maximum payment of $0.05, signs the payment, retries the same tool call, and prints the settlement receipt and result.

Clone and prepare the buyer:

git clone https://github.com/Diogoup26/mcp-x402.git
cd mcp-x402
npm install

Create a local .env.test file in the project root:

EVM_PRIVATE_KEY=0xYOUR_64_HEX_CHARACTER_PRIVATE_KEY

Never commit .env.test or expose the private key.

Build the project:

npm run build

The following commands authorize real x402 payments on Base mainnet:

• consultar_ia: $0.02 USDC
• analisar_url: $0.05 USDC
• verificar_condicoes: $0.05 USDC

HTTP URL Analysis

npm run analyze -- "https://example.com" "Summarize this page."

HTTP Decision Verification

npm run verify -- "https://example.com" "The page identifies the seller."

MCP URL Analysis

npm run mcp:analyze -- "https://example.com" "Summarize this page."

MCP AI Consultation

npm run mcp:consult -- "Reply only with: MCP OK"

MCP Decision Verification

npm run mcp:verify -- "https://example.com" "The page identifies the seller."

A successful MCP payment prints:

• PAGAMENTO MCP: success
• the settlement receipt
• the tool response

The MCP buyer never prints the private key and rejects any payment that:

• is not on Base mainnet;
• does not use the configured Base USDC contract;
• exceeds $0.05 USDC.

Optional Conversion Feedback

Every paid HTTP or MCP response advertises x-feedback-endpoint and the allowed normalized reason, stage, and intent values. The free preflight responses include the same information in a feedback block. Feedback is submitted to POST /feedback, contains no free text, and never includes a private key, prompt, URL, page content, or payment payload.

The three buyers accept:

--feedback-reason <research_only|no_wallet|unsupported_network|insufficient_funds|spending_not_authorized|price|insufficient_value|integration_error|other>
--feedback-stage <discovery|preflight|payment|execution|delivery>
--feedback-intent <research|analyze_page|verify_conditions|general_question|evaluate_service|other>

When --feedback-reason is supplied without --feedback-stage, the stage defaults to payment and the buyer does not authorize a payment. The HTTP buyers first receive the unsigned 402 challenge, submit the explicit feedback, and stop. The MCP buyer stops after its free preflight and submits the explicit feedback without requiring a wallet.

Example: report that the price stopped an evaluation, without paying:

npm run analyze -- "https://example.com" "Summarize this page." --feedback-reason price --feedback-intent evaluate_service

To submit explicit feedback after a completed delivery, select that stage:

npm run mcp:consult -- "Reply only with: MCP OK" --feedback-reason other --feedback-stage delivery --feedback-intent general_question

Buyers automatically submit only integration_error, and only for an objectively detected technical failure such as failed discovery/preflight, an HTTP 5xx result, a paid MCP tool error, or a missing settlement receipt after a payment was made. They never infer price, research_only, no_wallet, or another human or commercial motivation.

Controlled Smoke Test (No Payment)

After deployment, validate discovery, preflight, the OpenAPI feedback contract, normalized feedback submission, HTTP 402 challenges and feedback headers, HTTP method handling, MCP initialization, tool discovery and the MCP x402 challenge:

npm run build
npm run smoke

Use SERVICE_URL to target another deployment. The test uses one persistent x-journey-id, sends User-Agent: Diogo-Smoke/1.2.5, verifies that the MCP x402 challenge advertises the public HTTPS endpoint with type=mcp and the correct toolName, and never creates or signs a payment.
