Common questions

Is Agentmetal safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 6 days ago, and the latest version (0.3.5) reached the registry 6 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

@agentmetal/mcp

MCP server that exposes AgentMetal as tools, so an agent can discover → pay → provision → SSH in → run commands → manage → renew its own Linux server (VPS / cloud instance) with no human signup. Paid tools sign USDC payments over x402 v2 (or pay by card); the rest are plain HTTP.

Tools

13 tools. Paid tools sign a USDC/x402 payment; account-gated tools need AGENTMETAL_API_KEY (am_live_…) and ownership of the server.

Tool	Pays?	Account key?	What it does
`get_catalog`	—	—	List plans, locations, and add-on pricing (bandwidth, storage). The free discovery hook.
`provision_server`	✅ USDC	—	Provision a VPS (`plan`, `days`, optional `ssh_key`/`via`, `managed_key`) → id, IPv4, SSH. With `managed_key:true`, a server-side keypair is generated, authorized, and the private key returned once (stored only encrypted) to enable `exec_command`.
`get_server`	—	—	Status, IPv4, expiry, bandwidth, storage for a server id
`list_servers`	—	—	Fleet for a wallet/account
`extend_server`	✅ USDC	—	Extend a lease by N days
`destroy_server`	—	✅	Destroy now
`reboot_server`	—	✅	Soft-reboot an owned server
`server_logs`	—	✅	Hypervisor-level diagnostics without logging in: status, recent provider actions, a VNC console URL, and live CPU/disk/net metrics (no text boot log exists provider-side)
`exec_command`	—	✅	Run a shell command as root over SSH → exit_code/stdout/stderr. Requires a server provisioned with `managed_key:true`. Bounded: 1–120 s timeout, 256 KB output cap.
`get_firewall`	—	—	Read a box's edge-firewall rules. Callable from the box itself (source-IP identity) or with an account key.
`manage_firewall`	—	—	Open/close inbound ports on a box's edge firewall (protocol/port/source_ips). From the box itself or with an account key; SSH-lockout guarded.
`claim_account`	—	—	Email a one-time claim code (via AWS SES)
`verify_claim`	—	—	Redeem the code for an account API key. Link a wallet by also passing `wallet` + `wallet_signature`.

Add-ons (currently API endpoints, not yet separate MCP tools): extra storage ($0.01/GB/day, attached block volume) via POST /v1/servers/{id}/storage and extra bandwidth ($2/TB beyond the 20 TB included) via POST /v1/servers/{id}/bandwidth.

Configuration (env)

Var	Default	Purpose
`AGENTMETAL_BASE_URL`	`https://api.agentmetal.dev`	API base URL
`WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY`	—	`0x…` EVM key used to pay 402s. Omit and paid tools fail with a clear message.
`AGENTMETAL_NETWORK`	`eip155:8453`	CAIP-2 network (Base mainnet)
`AGENTMETAL_MAX_USDC`	`50`	Per-request spend cap, in USDC
`AGENTMETAL_API_KEY`	—	`am_live_…` account key, required for `destroy_server` / `reboot_server` / `server_logs` / `exec_command`

Use with Claude Code

// .mcp.json (or claude mcp add)

{ "mcpServers": { "agentmetal": { "command": "node", "args": ["packages/mcp/src/index.ts"], "env": { "WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY": "0x…", "AGENTMETAL_MAX_USDC": "50" } } } }

The wallet must hold USDC on Base. The spend cap (AGENTMETAL_MAX_USDC) bounds what any single tool call can pay; a 402 above the cap is refused before signing.

Status: client + server are unit-tested and the stdio handshake is verified.

Live USDC settlement needs a funded wallet + an x402 facilitator that supports the

exact / eip155:8453 kind.
