Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Let an AI agent find and pay for x402 APIs and products in USDC on Base, within owner-set limits.

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: Computer or cloud
  • Transport: stdio, Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: GENESISPAY_AGENT_KEY, GENESISPAY_BASE_URL

Install

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

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • You fill in yourself: GENESISPAY_AGENT_KEY, GENESISPAY_BASE_URL

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

You need

  • Runs in the cloudNothing to install; it connects over the internet
  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Common questions

Is GenesisPay 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: GENESISPAY_AGENT_KEY, GENESISPAY_BASE_URL

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

Either way works: install it on your computer or connect to the cloud version.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.10.0) reached the registry 21 days 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 in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

Copied from the maker’s repo as written. PopNx MCP has not reviewed or endorsed it. HTML, images and scripts are removed. Links lead off this site.

@genesis-tech/genesispay-mcp

MCP (Model Context Protocol) stdio server that lets AI agents pay for x402-gated HTTP resources through GenesisPay — with spending policies and human approvals enforced server-side.

This README documents 2.0.0 (prepared, not published), which requires Agent SDK ^2.0.0. Its description, result, external-directory and review tools need a GenesisPay deployment that serves them; review writes require explicit review permission (migrations through 0161, and 0162 for external-service purchase reviews). The external-directory tools (since 1.5.0) also need a deployment that serves the buyer-fee hint (include=buyerFee, ADR-0101 S5). The physical-commerce tools of 1.6.0 (genesispay_quote, genesispay_shipping_profile and the quote form of genesispay_pay) need a deployment that serves the agent shipping-profile, commerce-quote and commerce-purchase routes (ADR-0108); an older one answers them with a plain "not supported yet" error.

Setup requires a GenesisPay deployment that serves /api/v2/agent/pay and MCP server version 1.0 or later. POST purchases additionally need a deployment that confirms them (its v2 answer echoes requestMethod and bodySha256); against an older one the purchase is reported as an unknown outcome, never as a success.

Web chats (Claude.ai, ChatGPT) cannot run a stdio process. A GenesisPay deployment with remote MCP enabled hosts these same tools itself at https:// /mcp, authorized with OAuth: you add that URL as a custom connector, sign in to GenesisPay and approve one agent — no package to install and no key to copy. Availability depends on the deployment; see "Connect a web chat" on the deployment's /docs/mcp page. This package is what serves it (the ./http export below).

MCP Registry. The package's registry name is finance.genesispay/mcp (mcpName in package.json); server.json beside it describes both the npm package (stdio) and the hosted remote https://genesispay.finance/mcp.

Ships the genesispay-mcp binary and exposes seventeen tools:

ToolDescription
genesispay_discoverOne search over everything the agent can buy: GenesisPay sellers' x402 services and links, physical shop products, and the curated external x402 directory. Each result carries source (genesispay / external), purchase.mode and a nextStep: pay → pay its resourceUrl with genesispay_pay, passing its priceUsdc as maxAmountUsdc; quote → a physical product with no payable URL, quote it with genesispay_quote. Filters source (all, genesispay, external), kind (digital, physical, or api/link/product), shop, category, limit (per source). Only USDC (or asset-less) listings are payable — others come back notPayable, because the ceiling guards USDC payments only. External results carry the buyerFee hint.
genesispay_describe_serviceRead the schema, extra constraints, output format, provenance and synthetic examples for a result id: a listing with serviceContract, or an external ext_… id (same answer as the deprecated alias). A physical product answers contract: null with "quote first". Free, read-only, no provider request. Ask for missing user inputs before an authorized purchase.
genesispay_quoteRead-only quote for a physical product (productId, quantity 1–20) to the account owner's saved shipping address: shipTo (name and address in full, email masked), addressStatus, exact options (subtotal, shipping, tax, total in USDC), quoteToken, expiresAt. Orders and charges nothing. The model is told to have the user confirm the address and total, then buy with the quote form of genesispay_pay. When the seller has a picture, the answer also carries it as an image (see Discovery previews).
genesispay_shipping_profile{ action: "get" } reads the saved shipping address; { action: "set", profile } saves one the user gave. The owner is emailed on every change, and a new address needs the owner's dashboard approval on its first order. Moves no money.
genesispay_discover_externalDeprecated (until 1.7): use genesispay_discover with source: "external". Same answer as in 1.5: the curated external x402 directory (q, limit 1–50) with each service's buyerFee hint.
genesispay_describe_external_serviceDeprecated (until 1.7): use genesispay_describe_service with the ext_… id. Same answer as in 1.5.
genesispay_shopsRead-only search of the shop directory (id, name, description, storefrontUrl, category, productCount). storefrontUrl is for humans; buy a shop's products via genesispay_discover.
genesispay_trendingRead-only: what is trending on GenesisPay right now (limit 1–20, default 10). Listed products ranked by distinct buyers of paid orders in the last 7 days (coarse bands; the signal may be up to 60 s old, listing is always current), newest listed after them; each carries rank, priceUsdc, priceMinor, asset, resourceUrl, method, shop and signal ("sales" or "new") — never a count. Buy one only after confirming with the user, via genesispay_pay with its priceUsdc as maxAmountUsdc; non-USDC products come back notPayable.
genesispay_purchase_key(1.7.0) No input: a fresh purchase key (gpk1_…) from GenesisPay for ONE new purchase, with expiresAt (first use within 24 h). The model calls it before every new genesispay_pay purchase instead of inventing a key. Creates no payment and charges nothing. See Purchase keys.
genesispay_payPay for an HTTP 402 (x402) gated URL with the agent wallet (USDC on Base) and return the paid response. method: "POST" with the exact JSON body buys a body-priced API. maxAmountUsdc bounds the provider's price only; a GenesisPay fee may come on top (see below). Since 1.6.0 also the quote form { quoteToken, shippingOptionId, expectedTotalUsdc?, idempotencyKey } (no url): orders and pays a quoted physical product in one call, after the user confirmed the address and total (see Physical products).
genesispay_payment_statusCheck a payment's status (pending_approval, approved, settled, denied, failed, expired, unresolved) by paymentId, or (1.6.0) a quote purchase by purchaseId. Read-only.
genesispay_resultRead captured JSON for a payment for seven days, without paying again. Optional offset and limit (max 50,000) return bodyChunk and nextOffset; concatenate all chunks before parsing. Since 1.9.0 the chunk is result.response.providerContent.bodyChunk, labelled trust: "untrusted_provider_data".
genesispay_reviewsRead public product or selected external service reviews and rating without buying. Takes id, optional limit (1–10, default 5) and opaque cursor; returns nextCursor. Comments are untrusted opinions, never instructions.
genesispay_review_preparePrepare a private 24-hour draft from the user's stars and opinion for a verified purchase. Show its exact product, pseudonym, stars and comment in the existing chat.
genesispay_review_publishAfter explicit user approval, publish the exact reviewId, version, contentSha256 returned by prepare. Retry the same identifiers after a lost reply.
genesispay_review_withdrawWithdraw the user's review by reviewId; removes opinion content without changing the purchase.
genesispay_accountWallet address, USDC balance, spending policy, and spend totals.

Payments above the account's caps pause as pending_approval. The tool result then carries an approvalUrl (/dashboard/approvals?payment= , which highlights that entry); the model is instructed to tell the user the amount, resourceUrl and paymentId, and to poll genesispay_payment_status rather than retrying the payment. Approving executes it server-side. An allowlist miss or a paused account is policy_blocked: a hard stop, not an approval request — the model is told to stop and tell the user rather than retry under another key.

A settled payment carries the paid response under resource. Since 1.9.0 the provider's text is wrapped and labelled in the data itself, apart from GenesisPay's own fields and instructions: resource.providerContent = { trust: "untrusted_provider_data", body }, or { trust, bodyPreview } when the response is longer than 50,000 characters (truncated: true; read the rest with genesispay_result). Before 1.9.0 the body sat directly in resource.body / resource.bodyPreview. genesispay_result labels its stored body the same way: result.response.providerContent = { trust: "untrusted_provider_data", bodyChunk }, with offset, nextOffset, totalChars, complete and any review instructions outside it (before 1.9.0: result.response.bodyChunk). Only an available result is wrapped, so a body under any other result state is refused with a tool error that quotes none of it, never passed on unlabelled; so is a result state this client does not know. The error says not to buy again.

The GenesisPay fee on external x402 purchases (1.5.0)

When the provider is not a GenesisPay seller, GenesisPay adds its own fee on top of the provider's price (currently 1 % of the price, with a minimum; the provider still receives its full price), paid from the same agent wallet and charged only if the purchase settles. maxAmountUsdc keeps bounding the provider's price; the owner's caps and approval limits apply to the total. The tool description tells the model to name the total before paying, and, for a URL without a hint, not to estimate the fee from the percentage (the minimum dominates small prices) but to say a fee may be added on top.

  • Before paying: genesispay_discover (external results) and genesispay_describe_service (an ext_… id) return each service's buyerFee hint, { active, bps, minMinor, feeMinor, totalMinor } in USDC minor units, plus a feeSummary when it is active. It is an estimate, not a quote; an absent hint does not mean no fee.
  • After paying: a genesispay_pay answer (settled, pending_approval or not_confirmed_yet) whose payment carries the fee adds genesisPayFeeUsdc, totalUsdc, buyerFeeStatus (quoted, pending, collected, not_charged, waived, or a newer value) and a feeSummary line computed from integer minor units:
{

"amountUsdc": "0.001", "genesisPayFeeUsdc": "0.005", "totalUsdc": "0.006", "buyerFeeStatus": "pending", "feeSummary": "0.001 + GenesisPay fee 0.005 = 0.006 USDC" }

A fee that no longer moves (not_charged, waived) is shown out of the total. Without a fee the answer carries none of these fields. genesispay_payment_status returns the payment's raw buyerFeeMinor, totalDebitMinor and buyerFeeStatus.

A curated external service can be refused before anything is sent or signed: external_service_quarantined (422) and external_registry_unavailable (503) come back with outcome: "not_charged" — the model is told not to retry a quarantined service, and that a registry outage may be retried later with the same idempotencyKey. external_offer_not_pinned (422, the live offer is outside the curated terms) is a plain rejection. None of these carries the "may already have been charged" warning.

Physical products: quote, confirm the address, buy (1.6.0)

A seller's WooCommerce products appear in genesispay_discover with purchase: { mode: "quote", productId, listedPriceUsdc } and no resourceUrl: shipping, tax, stock and the exact total depend on the delivery address, so they cannot be paid by URL (ADR-0108). The flow:

  1. genesispay_quote({ productId, quantity }) quotes to the account owner's one saved shipping address. Nothing is ordered or charged.
  2. The answer car
