Client Configuration
CLI
A standalone CLI is available in the cli/ directory.
npm install -g run402
run402 wallet create
run402 wallet fund
run402 deploy --tier prototype --manifest app.json
See cli/README.md for full usage.
OpenClaw
A standalone skill is available in the openclaw/ directory — no MCP server required. It calls the Run402 API directly via Node.js scripts.
cp -r openclaw ~/.openclaw/skills/run402
cd ~/.openclaw/skills/run402/scripts && npm install
See openclaw/README.md for details.
MCP Clients
Claude Desktop
Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"run402": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "run402-mcp"]
}
}
}
Cursor
Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project:
{
"mcpServers": {
"run402": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "run402-mcp"]
}
}
}
Cline
Add to Cline MCP settings:
{
"mcpServers": {
"run402": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "run402-mcp"]
}
}
}
Claude Code
claude mcp add run402 -- npx -y run402-mcp
How It Works
- Provision — Call
provision_postgres_projectto create a database. The server handles x402 payment negotiation and stores credentials locally. - Build — Use
run_sqlto create tables,rest_queryto insert/query data, andupload_filefor storage. - Deploy — Use
deploy_sitefor static sites,deploy_functionfor serverless functions, orbundle_deployfor a full-stack app in one call. - Renew — Call
renew_projectbefore your lease expires.
Payment Flow
Provisioning, renewing, site deployment, bundle deploy, and image generation require x402 micropayments. When payment is needed, tools return payment details (not errors) so the LLM can reason about them and guide the user through payment.
Key Storage
Project credentials are saved to ~/.config/run402/projects.json with 0600 permissions. Each project stores:
anon_key— for public-facing queries (respects RLS)service_key— for admin operations (bypasses RLS)tier— prototype, hobby, or teamexpires_at— lease expiration timestamp
