Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

DEPRECATED: no live endpoint (AP2 is a spec; ap2.googleapis.com serves no API)

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
  • You need to fill in: AP2_API_KEY

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).
  • You fill in yourself: AP2_API_KEY

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

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": {
    "ap2": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@codespar/mcp-ap2"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AP2_API_KEY": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add ap2 --env AP2_API_KEY=your-value -- npx -y @codespar/mcp-ap2

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": {
    "ap2": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@codespar/mcp-ap2"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AP2_API_KEY": "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": {
    "ap2": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@codespar/mcp-ap2"
      ],
      "env": {
        "AP2_API_KEY": "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 one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

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

Values you fill in

  • AP2_API_KEY secret required env
    API key for ap2

Common questions

Is MCP Ap2 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?

You need to fill in: AP2_API_KEY

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 (0.2.0-alpha.4) reached the registry 40 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?

@codespar/mcp-ap2

Deprecated: no live endpoint. Measured on 2026-09-27: ap2.googleapis.com answers every path with Google's generic Error 404 (Not Found) page, and sandbox.ap2.googleapis.com (used with AP2_SANDBOX=true) fails the TLS handshake, because the certificate served there covers *.googleapis.com and not the extra label. AP2 is an open specification, not an API Google hosts. No tool in this server reaches a service. The package is deprecated on npm and stays in this repository for reference only. If you have a working endpoint, point the server at it with AP2_BASE_URL. To bring the package back, open an issue in mcp-dev-latam with the provider's documented base URL.

Alpha release — published under the alpha npm dist-tag. Pin exact versions during 0.x.x-alpha. Install with npm install @alpha.

MCP server for AP2 — Google's Agent-to-Agent Payment Protocol (authorization, audit, and trust for agentic payments)

What is AP2?

AP2 (Agent-to-Agent Payment Protocol) is Google's open framework for authorization, audit, and trust in agentic payments. It answers the critical questions: *Who authorized this payment? What limits apply? What's the full audit trail?*

The specification is published at ap2-protocol.org.

Quick Start

Claude Desktop

Add to ~/.config/claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{

"mcpServers": { "ap2": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@codespar/mcp-ap2"], "env": { "AP2_API_KEY": "your-key", "AP2_AGENT_ID": "your-agent-id" } } } }

Claude Code
claude mcp add ap2 -- npx @codespar/mcp-ap2
Cursor / VS Code

Add to .cursor/mcp.json or .vscode/mcp.json:

{

"servers": { "ap2": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@codespar/mcp-ap2"], "env": { "AP2_API_KEY": "your-key", "AP2_AGENT_ID": "your-agent-id" } } } }

Authentication

The server sends AP2_API_KEY as an Authorization: Bearer header and AP2_AGENT_ID as an X-Agent-Id header on every request (src/index.ts:69-73).

There is no portal issuing those credentials. The developer portal this README used to link, developers.google.com/ap2, answers HTTP 404, as does the ap2-spec repository it pointed at. The published specification is at ap2-protocol.org.

Environment Variables

VariableRequiredDescription
AP2_API_KEYYesSent as Authorization: Bearer
AP2_AGENT_IDYesSent as the X-Agent-Id header
AP2_SANDBOXNotrue switches BASE_URL to https://sandbox.ap2.googleapis.com/v1, which fails TLS

Use Cases

  • Authorized agent purchases — Agent requests spend authorization, gets approval with limits, then executes payment
  • Multi-agent commerce — Agent A authorizes Agent B to make payments on its behalf with scoped limits
  • Compliance & audit — Full audit trail of every authorization, approval, execution, and settlement
  • Cross-rail payments — AP2 bridges card payments, bank transfers, wallets, and x402 micropayments

Roadmap

v0.2 (planned)
  • create_policy — Define reusable authorization policies
  • delegate_authority — Allow agent-to-agent authorization delegation
  • get_spend_report — Get spend analytics and reports
  • OAuth 2.0 authentication flow
v0.3 (planned)
  • Webhook support for real-time authorization events
  • Multi-currency support with automatic FX
  • Integration with x402 as payment method
