Modexia
This server allows your AI agents (like Claude, LangChain bots, or custom swarms) to seamlessly execute secure cryptocurrency transactions (USDC) and zero-fee micro-payments straight from their system prompts.

<br />
Welcome to the Modexia AgentPay MCP Server (modexia-mcp). This server bridges the gap between Large Language Models and the real-world digital economy.
By integrating this standard Model Context Protocol (MCP) server into your AI stack (Claude Desktop, LobeChat, Dify, or custom multi-agent swarms), you instantly equip your AI Agents with a programmatic Smart Contract Wallet.
Instead of your agents hitting 402 Payment Required errors and failing, they can now autonomously negotiate paywalls, purchase premium data, execute zero-gas microtransactions via Circle Gateway, and trade compute resources with other agents in high-frequency vault channels.
Modexia gives your AI a bank account, and MCP gives it the tools to use it.
What's New in v0.4.1
Circle Gateway Nanopayments (x402) This release brings full agentic support for gas-free, sub-cent microtransactions directly to the MCP level.
nanopay— Fetch an x402-protected URL and automatically negotiate the payment using EIP-3009 offline signatures. Includes inline auto-refill logic.nanopay_activate— One-time activation for the agent.nanopay_deposit/nanopay_withdraw— Manage gateway funds directly from the main wallet.nanopay_balance— Track the True Available Balance (Gateway deposits minus pending/unsettled signatures).- Structured Error Handling — The MCP tools now pass back structured
ModexiaPaymentErrorcodes (e.g.,INSUFFICIENT_MAIN_BALANCE) so the LLM can reason about failures and take corrective action.
Previous: What's New in v0.3.0 (Intent-to-Pay)
Intent-Based Payments (v2) Execute standard USDC payments through a strict compliance pipeline with rich feedback.
submit_intent— Create a signed intent, validate against policies, and execute on-chain.get_intent/list_intents— Audit trail and tracking.
Features
- Circle Gateway Integration: Direct programmatic access to Circle's USDC nanopayment infrastructure.
- Gas-Free Microtransactions: Send payments as low as $0.000001 with zero blockchain fees.
- EIP-3009 Offline Signatures: Secure, off-chain payment authorizations that prevent double-spending.
- Intent-Based Routing: Strict policy enforcement, daily spend limits, and cryptographic audit trails.
- Automated Paywall Negotiation: Automatically detect
402 Payment Requiredheaders and fulfill them inline. - Smart Auto-Refill: Seamlessly top-up gateway balances from the main wallet when funds run low.

"env": {
"MODEXIA_API_KEY": "mx_test_YourApiKeyHere"
}
}
}
}
Contributing to Open Source
We actively welcome community contributions to make this MCP server even better. Because it acts as the primary interface for autonomous AI agents, we heavily prioritize stability and strict prompt engineering.
- Clone the Repo:
git clone https://github.com/Modexia/modexia-mcp.git - Install Dependencies:
pip install -e . - Run Locally: You can run the server in stdio mode for local testing via
python -m modexia_mcp - Submit PRs: Open a Pull Request targeting the
mainbranch.
Security Model
The Modexia MCP Server never exposes your private keys to the LLM context. The AI only has permission to trigger explicitly configured MCP tools. Policy limits (e.g., maximum daily spend, hourly caps) are enforced automatically on the Modexia backend. Even a hallucinating AI cannot drain your wallet above your predefined guards.
License & Support
modexia-mcp is an open-source tool governed by the MIT License.
