What it can do

lqwd_check_balance
Check your LQWD agent account profile. Returns your account tier, status, and registration date. Always free. Authenticate by sending the HTTP header `Authorization: Bearer ` on MCP requests (where is the `lqwd_...` key returned by lqwd_register).
lqwd_check_channel_status
Check the status of an inbound channel LQWD granted to your node during registration. Returns the current state (pending, active, failed), funding txid (when confirmed), and balances. Only meaningful if you registered with pubkey+node_uri; agents without a channel grant will get
lqwd_register
Register a new AI agent account with LQWD. Returns an API key and, when you supply a Lightning node's pubkey + node_uri, a one-time inbound channel on mainnet as part of the tier-1 faucet grant. Always free; no authentication required — this tool is how you GET your API key. To r

Common questions

Is LQWD Gateway 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 in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (3.0.0) reached the registry 6 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT Business and above.

What can I use instead?
