MCP Configuration

JarvisClaw exposes an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server. Connect from Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, or any MCP client to use AI models as tools.

Authentication

Method	Header	Use case
API Key	Authorization: Bearer sk-...	Pre-paid account
x402 USDC	PAYMENT-SIGNATURE: ...	No account, wallet direct pay

Discovery methods (initialize, tools/list, resources/list) are free — no auth needed. Only tools/call requires payment.

Claude Code

Add to ~/.claude.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jarvisclaw": {
      "type": "url",
      "url": "https://api.jarvisclaw.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sk-your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

After config, these tools appear automatically:

Tool	Description
list_models	List all available AI models
chat	Call any model (OpenAI-compatible)
search_apis	Search user-published APIs
get_api_detail	Get API endpoint details
discover_agents	Find other registered agents
aip_resolve	Rank providers for an intent
aip_execute_with_budget	Execute an intent under a hard budget cap
aip_list_intents	List supported intent types
aip_estimate_cost	Estimate cost before executing
uapi_{slug}	Call a specific user API directly

Cursor / Windsurf

Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project root:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "jarvisclaw": {
      "url": "https://api.jarvisclaw.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sk-your-api-key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Programmatic Usage

MCP uses JSON-RPC 2.0 over HTTP. Connect directly:

import httpx

# 1. Initialize (no auth needed)
resp = httpx.post("https://api.jarvisclaw.ai/mcp", json={
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "initialize",
    "params": {
        "protocolVersion": "2025-03-26",
        "capabilities": {},
        "clientInfo": {"name": "my-agent", "version": "1.0"}
    }
})

# 2. List tools (no auth needed)
resp = httpx.post("https://api.jarvisclaw.ai/mcp", json={
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 2,
    "method": "tools/list"
})

# 3. Call a tool (auth required)
resp = httpx.post("https://api.jarvisclaw.ai/mcp",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer sk-your-api-key"},
    json={
        "jsonrpc": "2.0",
        "id": 3,
        "method": "tools/call",
        "params": {
            "name": "chat",
            "arguments": {
                "model": "gpt-4o",
                "messages": [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
            }
        }
    }
)
print(resp.json()["result"]["content"][0]["text"])

x402 Payment via MCP

Agents with a USDC wallet can pay per call without an account:

Agent                        JarvisClaw MCP
  │                                │
  │── tools/call (no auth) ──────> │
  │<── error: payment required ──  │  (price, payTo, network)
  │                                │
  │  [sign USDC x402 payment]      │
  │                                │
  │── tools/call + PAYMENT-SIG ──> │
  │<── tool result ──────────────  │

# Call without payment → get price info
resp = httpx.post("https://api.jarvisclaw.ai/mcp", json={
    "jsonrpc": "2.0", "id": 3,
    "method": "tools/call",
    "params": {"name": "chat", "arguments": {"model": "gpt-4o", "messages": [...]}}
})
# → error with payment details (amount, payTo, network)

# Sign x402 payment, then retry with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header
resp = httpx.post("https://api.jarvisclaw.ai/mcp",
    headers={"PAYMENT-SIGNATURE": payment_sig},
    json={...}
)
