Overview

AI-generated overview

Local MCP server that lets an assistant buy Hermes Asia market-intelligence reports, paying per call in USDC on Base through the x402 protocol.

What you can do
Purchase Asia market-intelligence reports: China/Taiwan/Japan trade policy, Japanese research, anime industry, Tokyo night economy, China silver economy, lying-flat trend and China real estate 2026, each at a listed per-call price in USDC on Base, with no API keys or subscriptions.
When to use it
Use it when an assistant needs paid Asia-focused market or policy research and you are willing to pay per request in USDC on Base, with no API key or subscription setup.
Requirements
Node.js 20 or newer, run locally via npx or a global npm install. A wallet holding USDC on Base and a small amount of ETH on Base for gas. The X402_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY and WORKER_URL environment variables must be set. Network access to the Hermes worker endpoint.
Before you install
The server needs X402_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY, a wallet private key, and signs payment manifests with it; use a dedicated low-balance wallet. Every tool call spends real USDC on-chain, roughly $0.02 to $0.03 per report plus gas, automatically and without human confirmation. Requests and payment go to a third-party worker endpoint.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open X402 Mcp Server in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.
