Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add a2apay --env A2APAY_PRIVATE_KEY=your-value -- uvx a2apay-io

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

    "a2apay": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "a2apay-io"
      ],
      "env": {
        "A2APAY_PRIVATE_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": {
    "a2apay": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "a2apay-io"
      ],
      "env": {
        "A2APAY_PRIVATE_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

A2APAY_PRIVATE_KEY secret env
Base mainnet wallet private key, only needed once the free tier (5 calls/day) is used up. Never required for free-tier-only usage.

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

Common questions

Is A2apay 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: A2APAY_PRIVATE_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 (0.1.0) reached the registry 30 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

a2apay

Python client for a2apay.io — pay-per-call AI answers and persistent memory for autonomous agents. No account, no API key.

pip install a2apay-io          # free-tier only

pip install "a2apay-io[paid]" # adds real payment support (eth-account)

(The PyPI distribution is named a2apay-io — an unrelated package already holds the bare a2apay name. The importable module is still a2apay.)

Quick start (free tier, zero setup)

Every call tries the free tier first automatically — 5 requests/day per caller, no wallet needed:

from a2apay import Agent

agent = Agent() answer = agent.ask("What's 7 times 8?") print(answer)

agent.remember("last_task", "processed invoice #4471", tags=["billing"])

With real payment (once the free tier is used up)

from a2apay import Agent

agent = Agent(private_key="0x...") # or set A2APAY_PRIVATE_KEY answer = agent.ask("What's 7 times 8?")

The wallet needs a small USDC balance on Base mainnet ($0.028/call). The private key is used only to sign a payment authorization locally — it is never sent anywhere.

Checkpoint / resume (task memory)

Write versioned, task-scoped state and read it back later — even from a different process. Each checkpoint() to the same key adds a new version rather than overwriting, and resume() always returns the latest.

from a2apay import Agent

agent = Agent(private_key="0x...") agent.checkpoint("invoice-batch-7", key="status", value="processed rows 1-400")

...process dies, or a second process picks up later...

agent2 = Agent(private_key="0x...") # same wallet records = agent2.resume("invoice-batch-7") print(records0) # "processed rows 1-400"

resume() always requires payment ($0.014/call) — there's no free tier for reads yet, so it needs a configured wallet even for your first call. checkpoint() follows the same free-tier-then-paid behavior as remember().

What this honestly does and doesn't do

ask() returns a real AI-generated answer.
remember() stores a flat key/value record with optional tags — this is simple text storage, not a document database. Values are stored as text.
Falls back to a real payment only when the free tier returns a 402; if no private_key is configured at that point, it raises a clear A2ApayError rather than failing silently.
Payment signing uses eth-account (maintained by the Ethereum Foundation ecosystem), implementing the real x402 "exact" EVM scheme per the x402 protocol spec.

MCP server

An MCP server (mcp_server.py) exposes ask and remember as MCP tools for any MCP-aware agent or framework (Claude Desktop, etc.):

pip install "a2apay-io[mcp]"

python mcp_server.py

Add to an MCP client config:

"mcpServers": { "a2apay": { "command": "python", "args": ["/absolute/path/to/mcp_server.py"], "env": {"A2APAY_PRIVATE_KEY": "0x..."} } } }

Honest scope note: remember is write-only — there's no memory read-back tool because the live API doesn't have a read-back route yet.
