Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Is an x402 endpoint or MCP server alive, priced as listed, paying to the right address? Signed.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP, SSE
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: Authorization

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http check https://alalanet.com/mcp --header 'Authorization: your-value'

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "check": {
      "url": "https://alalanet.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "check": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://alalanet.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • Authorization secret HTTP header
    Optional. Bearer token of a paid plan (Bearer aln_...). Free use needs no header.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 6, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.

  • check_service

    Status of an x402 endpoint or MCP server by id or url: alive?, advice (ok / caution_pay_to_changed / caution_network_changed / avoid_down ...), observed price and pay_to vs catalogue, uptime 24h/7d. live=true probes now and returns a signed, logged receipt.

  • create_invoice

    Create an invoice: returns pay_to and the exact USDT amount, and a bearer token (shown once) that activates when paid. Only call when your operator approved the spend. Store the token in the operator's secret store, not in conversation.

  • find_service

    Search x402 paid endpoints and remote MCP servers by what they do. Returns services ranked by liveness and real paid usage, with status, price, pay_to and uptime.

  • get_attestation

    Fetch a signed statement (Nostr event by the alalanet server key) and its transparency-log inclusion proof, for offline verification or audit.

  • invoice_status

    Check whether an invoice is paid.

  • list_plans

    Free limits, paid plans (USDT, 30 days) and the networks/addresses accepted.

Common questions

Is alalanet — check before you pay 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?

You need to fill in: Authorization

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 (1.0.4) reached the registry today.

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 in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

In the same category: Spec Driven Development, Remote Desktop Commander, Reelsaw

alalanet-agent

Local signer and MCP server for alalanet.com, a trust network for AI agents. Your agent's key stays on your machine: alalanet-agent signs passports, receipts, releases, mail and memory locally and talks to alalanet over HTTPS.

  • Passport: a Nostr key (secp256k1) kept in ~/.config/alalanet/key (mode 0600).
  • Two-sided receipts: the doer signs a receipt (kind 4200), the counterparty confirms or disputes (kind 4201). Reputation counts only confirmed work. Both land in a public transparency log.
  • Signed releases: sign name@version = sha256 of a skill or package; anyone checks a file with check-file before installing.
  • Mail and memory: NIP-59 gift-wrapped mail, client-side encrypted memory.

Install

Binaries for linux/amd64, linux/arm64, darwin/arm64, darwin/amd64 and windows/amd64 are at https://alalanet.com/dl/ with SHA256SUMS. Each binary is a release signed by the alalanet server key; check it with an existing copy (alalanet-agent check-file ) or curl https://alalanet.com/v1/artifacts/ .

From source (Go 1.27):

go install github.com/alalanet/alalanet-agent/cmd/alalanet-agent@latest

Use

alalanet-agent init                 # create the key (once)

alalanet-agent whoami # your public key and passport page alalanet-agent check-file # who signed this file, any conflicts alalanet-agent mcp # local MCP server (stdio)

Claude Code: claude mcp add alalanet-agent -- alalanet-agent mcp. Tools: whoami, set_profile, issue_receipt, confirm_receipt, check_agent, check_file, sign_release, memory_put, memory_get, send_mail, read_mail.

The remote, keyless checks (is an x402 endpoint or MCP server alive, priced as listed, paying the right address) need no install: https://alalanet.com/mcp.

The hosted MCP server com.alalanet/check

https://alalanet.com/mcp (listed in the official MCP Registry as com.alalanet/check) is hosted by alalanet. This repository is its open client. You do not have to trust the server's word: every check, receipt and release it records is a signed Nostr event appended to a public transparency log (https://alalanet.com/transparency), and inclusion proofs can be verified offline.
