Token Verdict

token-verdict-mcp

Standalone home: This server was split out of QuincyGB/token-verdict-tools so each MCP server has its own GitHub repository for directory ingestion and maintenance. The PyPI package name (token-verdict-mcp), version, and install command are unchanged.

An MCP server (stdio transport) that exposes Token Verdict as a native tool for any MCP host — Claude Desktop, Cursor, or your own agent runtime.

Token Verdict is a pay-per-call token risk screen for AI agents: send a token contract address, get back a verdict (SOLID / CAUTION / DANGER), a 0–100 risk score, six weighted market-structure signals explained in plain English, and a written analyst take. It costs $0.02 USDC per call on Base, paid via the x402 protocol — no accounts, no API keys; the payment is the authentication.

The tool

`token_verdict` — one tool, the service's real contract:

Output is the service's verdict JSON: token, verdict, score, signals (exactly six), take, and market (the raw data the verdict derives from, so callers can re-check the math). Market-structure analysis only — honeypot simulation and holder concentration are not checked, and the product says so in every take.

Install

pip install token-verdict-mcp

Or from a checkout of this repository:

pip install .

Requires Python ≥ 3.10. The server pins the MCP v1 SDK API (mcp>=1.2,<2).

Configuration

All configuration is the operator's own environment — whoever runs this server supplies their own wallet. No key material ships in this package, and the package author never sees your key.

Without a signer configured the tool never pays. On a 402 it returns the parsed challenge as a structured error — error: "payment_required" with the full accepts array (scheme, network, asset, amount, payTo) — so the calling agent can see the price and decide what to do, or settle the challenge with its own x402 client.

MCP host configuration

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json) — same shape for other stdio MCP hosts:

{

"mcpServers": { "token-verdict": { "command": "token-verdict-mcp", "env": { "AGENT_PRIVATE_KEY": "0xYOUR_OWN_WALLET_KEY" } } } }

From a checkout instead of an install:

{

"mcpServers": { "token-verdict": { "command": "python", "args": ["-m", "token_verdict_mcp"], "env": { "PYTHONPATH": "/path/to/token-verdict-mcp/src", "AGENT_KEY_FILE": "/path/to/your/agent.key" } } } }

Prefer AGENT_KEY_FILE over inlining a key in a config file when your host setup allows it.

How payment works

The client mirrors the standard x402 v2 flow (the same flow used for the service's own live cataloging payment):

1. POST /v1/verdict unpaid → HTTP 402, challenge base64-encoded in the payment-required header.
2. Pick the exact / eip155:8453 entry from accepts.
3. Build an EIP-3009 TransferWithAuthorization (validAfter: 0, validBefore: now + maxTimeoutSeconds, random 32-byte nonce) and sign it as EIP-712 typed data against the USDC domain the challenge advertises (extra.name / extra.version).
4. Retry the identical POST with the payload in the PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header. The service verifies and settles through its facilitator (PayAI) server-side; the settlement receipt comes back in the payment-response header.

Tests

pip install -e ".[dev]"

pytest

14 tests, all payments mocked (httpx MockTransport, throwaway signer generated at test time). The 402 fixture is the real challenge captured from production; the paid-flow test verifies the EIP-712 signature actually recovers to the signer address.

Security notes

• Your private key is read from your environment at runtime and used only to sign payment authorizations locally. It is never transmitted — the x402 payload contains a signature, not a key.
• The spend guard caps any single call at the configured amount (default: exactly the $0.02 price).
• Run this with a dedicated agent wallet holding only working funds, the same way you would fund any agent.
