ImagePay MCP

An MCP server that exposes the ImagePay x402 marketplace — 40 paid API tools — to any MCP-capable agent.

What it does

Each tool is gated by an x402 micro-payment on Base. Call a tool; the server returns a 402 with signed payment terms; your x402-enabled client pays per call. No API key, no subscription, no signup.

Tools (40)

OCR — image → text
PDF — text, metadata, page split, merge
Image — filters, transforms, QR generate/decode, palette, perceptual hash, face-detect, crop, resize, watermark, EXIF read/strip
Tabular — csv↔json, xml→json, yaml→json
Web — URL metadata (title/description/OpenGraph)
Utilities — JWT decode, cron-next, unit conversion, slugify

Endpoint

code

https://making-absurd-felt-tip.ngrok-free.dev/mcp

Transport: streamable HTTP. A bare MCP client initialize + tools/list returns all 40 tools. Unpaid calls return x402 payment terms (the server is Bazaar-native under resource type mcp).

Using it

Point any x402-aware MCP client at the URL above. Example (TypeScript SDK):

import { Client } from "@modelcontextprotocol/sdk/client/index.js";
// connect to https://making-absurd-felt-tip.ngrok-free.dev/mcp

Self-hosting

The upstream server is open-source (Hermes Agent project). This repo only holds the registry metadata; the live service runs elsewhere.
