Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Buy BSV with USDC on Base through a local non-custodial MCP server.

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 on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other

Install

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

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

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

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "petasats": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "petasats-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add petasats -- npx -y petasats-mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

      "args": [
        "-y",
        "petasats-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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.

Common questions

Is PetaSats safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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 –, and the latest version (0.2.16) reached the registry yesterday.

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.

PetaSats MCP

Buy BSV with USDC on Base from your AI app through a local, non-custodial MCP server.

What it does

PetaSats supports USDC on Base to BSV only. Keys are made and kept on your machine.

  1. You lock USDC in the swap contract on Base.
  2. The market maker locks BSV.
  3. The kit verifies the lock against a merkle proof and block headers, then claims BSV and reveals the secret.
  4. The market maker uses that secret to claim USDC.

Swaps are about $5 to $100. Each buyer may make three swaps and $200 per day; a shared daily total also applies. Standard speed is the default and waits for one BSV confirmation. An explicit speed: "fast" request can reduce that wait for at most $25 only when both sides agree.

Install and connect

Use Node.js 22 or newer. Every command here runs this release, petasats-mcp@0.2.16. Use one version in your client's entry and in terminal commands; to move to a later release, change it while no swap is running and restart the client.

claude mcp add petasats -- npx -y petasats-mcp@0.2.16

Claude Desktop (claude_desktop_config.json), Cursor (~/.cursor/mcp.json):

{"mcpServers":{"petasats":{"command":"npx","args":["-y","petasats-mcp@0.2.16"]}}}

VS Code (.vscode/mcp.json):

{"servers":{"petasats":{"type":"stdio","command":"npx","args":["-y","petasats-mcp@0.2.16"]}}}

Codex (CLI, IDE extension, or app):

codex mcp add petasats -- npx -y petasats-mcp@0.2.16

Any client that starts local stdio servers can use command npx and args -y petasats-mcp@0.2.16. First start creates keys in ~/.petasats; PETASATS_HOME changes that location. Back up keys.json: it is the only copy. Run only one copy of a kit home, because two copies of the same keys can each sign Base payments the other cannot see.

Fund the kit

wallet_info shows the Base address. Send it USDC on Base and a little ETH for gas; 0.0002 ETH covers many swaps.

Use it

Ask: “Buy $20 of BSV and send it to 1...”

Limits you control

You can create ~/.petasats/limits.json to restrict where an AI may send funds and how much it may swap per UTC day:

{

"format": "petasats.limits/1", "bsvDestinations": ["1BoatSLRHtKNngkdXEeobR76b53LETtpyT"], "baseDestinations": ["0x1111111111111111111111111111111111111111"], "maxSwapUsdPerDay": 50, "allowFastSettlement": false }

Keep this file private to your user account: chmod 600 ~/.petasats/limits.json. The kit refuses a limits file that other users can read or write. It rereads the file before every money operation. A refusal says that it was refused by your limits file and that nothing was sent. Use npx petasats-mcp@0.2.16 limits to inspect it.

stop_spending stops new swaps and withdrawals immediately. Only you can resume with npx petasats-mcp@0.2.16 resume; recovery for swaps already started keeps working.

allowFastSettlement: false forbids fast settlement for new swaps. If the field is missing, an explicitly requested fast swap is permitted to negotiate it; standard remains the default.

These controls protect against an AI that can only use the kit's tools. An AI app that can run shell commands or edit files as you can also edit limits.json or STOP.

Progress and reporting

The server gives the AI an operating guide. With a person watching, it reports one line per stage and a final summary with transaction IDs. For a program it returns only the result. Reporting never holds up a swap, and nothing asks for confirmation after a swap starts.

Safety model

Funds can go only to the swap contract on Base, the kit’s own addresses, or an address you provide. The kit verifies before reveal. The standard Base gate is 60 confirmations (about 12 seconds). The market maker’s BSV can return about four hours (24 blocks) after lock; your USDC refunds after about 16 hours (288,000 Base blocks) if the swap does not finish. Recovery resumes after restart. Run one swap at a time and keep the server running during a swap.

Fast mode makes the kit reveal its secret against an unconfirmed BSV lock. If the market maker double-spends that lock, you can lose the swap amount. It is available only when both sides agree and the amount is at most $25; otherwise the swap waits for one BSV confirmation. Fast is the buyer’s explicit choice; omitting speed uses standard settlement.

Costs

get_quote shows the rate and comparison with market mid. You pay Base gas in ETH, the BSV claim fee, and a small extra BSV fee with deliver_to. See get_quote for protocol fees.

Verify what you run

The npm package is built by GitHub Actions from a tagged commit and published with npm provenance. Run npm audit signatures; the npm page links the build to its commit and workflow run. dist/petasats-mcp.mjs is not minified. Source under src/ is exported from the development repository for each release with internal development comments removed and internal names replaced by neutral ones; apart from that it is identical.

Files, status, and recovery

The kit uses ~/.petasats. Run npx petasats-mcp@0.2.16 status for status and npx petasats-mcp@0.2.16 recover after interruption.

A Base withdrawal left pending (for example after a fee rise) is re-sent unchanged; new swaps and Base withdrawals wait until it confirms. Run npx petasats-mcp@0.2.16 withdrawals to list pending withdrawals. If a finalized nonce was consumed but its receipt cannot be found, check the transaction in a Base explorer, then explicitly record the outcome with npx petasats-mcp@0.2.16 withdrawal sent or npx petasats-mcp@0.2.16 withdrawal not-sent.

Repeating the same Base withdrawal (same asset, amount, and address) within an hour is refused as a likely retry. Do not run two AI apps using the kit on the same folder at the same time.

A swap started with version 0.2.0 or 0.2.1 whose USDC lock never landed can stay at "Waiting for BSV lock" and block new swaps and withdrawals. If no other copy of the kit used the same folder while that swap ran, set PETASATS_RESOLVE_OLD_STUCK_SWAPS=1 in the kit's environment (for example "env":{"PETASATS_RESOLVE_OLD_STUCK_SWAPS":"1"} in your client's server entry) and restart the kit. It then sends a zero-value transaction to its own Base address so the old lock can never land, and marks the swap failed once that transaction is final, usually within 30 minutes. Swaps started with 0.2.2 or later resolve without this setting.

Troubleshooting

busy, limit, rate_limited, unavailable, and declined mean nothing was locked. If keys-file permissions are wrong, restore owner-only access. For RPC trouble, check your network connection and retry.
