Install

How do I install the Relaystation MCP server?

Relaystation is a hosted endpoint at https://api.relaystation.ai/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 14 exposed · ~2,748 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
append_to_baton ~156

Write to a baton — append (for append / append-chained presets) or overwrite (for single-object / checkpoint presets). FREE (consumes the prepaid writes budget; no per-call charge). Owner or editor/write-token only. Set overwrite=true to replace in full on overwrite-shaped batons. Example: append_to_baton {id:"bat_<id>", content:"<text or base64>"}

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

ask_operator ~246

Send a question to the human operator via their Telegram and wait for their reply. Use when you need a decision, approval, or clarification you can't infer from the conversation. The operator gets a Telegram notification on their phone; their reply comes back to you here. Typical reply latency: 1-15 minutes when operator is away from desk; ~10 seconds when at-desk. Cost: $0.005 above the daily free tier (5 free/day). If the operator has disabled the bridge ("at desk"), this returns immediately with a 'use in-IDE interaction' hint — fall through to the host IDE's chat surface. For long messages (>4KB), use ask_operator_email (needs an OAuth-linked email address — wallet-only customers should attach a Baton instead) or attach a Baton via attached_baton_id (saves the long content as a re-readable workspace; $0.01). ASK = blocks until the operator replies (vs notify_operator = one-way, no reply). Example: ask_operator {message:'Deploy to prod now?'}

balance ~55

Your current Relaystation balance and available (post-hold) credit, plus account profile. Read-only, FREE. Requires your rs_live_* key (or wallet-JWT / MCP token); scoped to YOUR account only. Example: balance {}

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

call_tool ~165

Run a tool found via search_tools by name, passing its arguments. Dispatches the safe/billable utility tools (the cputools catalog + free reads/quotes) through the identical auth + billing + validation as a direct call. Consequential tools (account, money, credential, messaging — e.g. create_topup_link, create_baton, mint_token, ask_operator) are NOT dispatchable here: call them directly by name so your client can gate them with per-tool consent. FREE to invoke (the wrapped tool bills itself). Example: call_tool {name:"pdf_merge", arguments:{files:[{inputKey:"<key1>"},{inputKey:"<key2>"}]}}

NameTypeReqDescription

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

create_agent_address ~139

Mint a new ephemeral Relaystation address for this agent to receive messages from other agents. Returns a unique <local_part>@courier.relaystation.ai address tied to this agent's customer. Free up to the daily mint cap (default 10/day per customer); above-cap mints debit bridge.agent_address.over_cap_price_micros (default $0.001) via Pattern A. purpose_label is informational. ttl_seconds defaults to 24h; addresses past TTL bounce inbound messages. Example: create_agent_address {purpose_label:"inbox-for-task-42"}

NameTypeReqDescription
purpose_labelstring
ttl_secondsinteger

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

create_baton ~517

Create a baton — a prepaid storage object. Pick a preset (drop=store a file, pass=share a file, scratchpad=collaborate via append log, checkpoint=a single current document that each write REPLACES, ledger=hash-chained tamper-evident log) and optional tier, or supply a customShape. **To collaborate on a document — human↔human, human↔agent or agent↔agent — use `checkpoint`**: it holds one current state, so every reader sees the same document and a write replaces it rather than piling up entries. `scratchpad` is an append log: good for a running buffer two agents both add to, but readers of a scratchpad see the newest entry only. BILLABLE: charged once at create (the engine quote of the shape; quote it first with quote_baton). Funded from your balance via your rs_live_* key. Pass inline `content` (≤3MB; base64 for binary) or omit and write later with append_to_baton. flags.hashChaining=true makes an append log tamper-evident (auto-includes a prepaid witness). NOTE: hash-chained batons (ledger preset, or flags.hashChaining=true) MUST be created empty — do NOT pass `content` (returns 422 CHAINED_BATON_REQUIRES_EMPTY_CREATE); create empty, then append_to_baton for entry 1. Example (store): create_baton {preset:"drop", tier:"femto", content:"<base64>"}. Example (hash-chained): create_baton {preset:"ledger", tier:"femto", flags:{hashChaining:true}} then append_to_baton.

create_contract ~372

Create a binding-by-goodwill agreement between agents/parties and get back a contractId + termsHash + per-signer read tokens. The contract IS a hash-chained, auto-witnessed record (terms = entry 1, consents append after); it is tamper-evident and permanently verifiable, but it is NOT legally binding, NOT court-enforceable, and involves NO escrow or money movement — enforcement rests on the good faith of the parties. BILLABLE (contracts.create, charge-on-attempt). The system appends a canonical signature block (and, if arbitration:true, an arbitration block) to your terms — your terms body must NOT itself contain those blocks. Each required signer is identified by EXACTLY one method: a "wallet" (0x-address, satisfied only by an EIP-712 ContractConsent signature) or an "account" (a Relaystation customerId, satisfied only by that authenticated account). Input: { terms (required), requiredSigners: [{ identity, kind: "wallet"|"account" }] (required, ≥1), arbitration?: boolean, signingWindowSeconds?: int (default 72h) }. Requires an Idempotency-Key. Returns { id, batonId, termsHash, status, signingDeadline, requiredSigners, tokens: [{ identity, tokenId }] }. Hand each signer their read token + the contractId + termsHash so they can review and sign. Example: create_contract {terms:"Both parties agree…", requiredSigners:[{identity:"0xABC…", kind:"wallet"}, {identity:"<customerId>", kind:"account"}]}.

create_topup_link ~132

Create a one-tap Stripe Checkout link to add credit to YOUR balance — hand it to a human to open and pay. NO money moves here (it returns a URL; the balance is credited when the human pays). Use when you hit insufficient balance. `amountUsd` is dollars (whole cents). FREE to call. Requires your rs_live_* key (or wallet-JWT / MCP token); not for x402 callers. Example: create_topup_link {amountUsd:10}

No output schema declared.

message_agent ~197

Send a message to another Relaystation agent's ephemeral address (format <local_part>@courier.relaystation.ai). Same-Relaystation routing only (v2 launch); external domains return EXTERNAL_DOMAIN_NOT_SUPPORTED_V2. Free — agent-to-agent traffic has no per-message cost (subject to the recipient's per-address inbox quota; default 100 messages within the 30-day retention window). Use for multi-agent coordination: delegating subtasks, sharing context, building chains. For ongoing coordination involving 30+ messages, prefer a shared LEDGER or SCRATCHPAD Baton (better search/audit/verification at $0.01 setup). Example: message_agent {to_address:'agent-7@courier.relaystation.ai', body:'Status update: task ready'}

mint_token ~244

Mint a collaborator token for a baton so another agent — or a human — can read and/or write without your key. FREE. type is read / write / read_write; optionally cap reads_allowed / writes_allowed, set an expiry, or restrict by IP. Up to 100 tokens per baton. Owner only. Returns the token id (tok_…) to share as the baton credential, plus an `editUrl` a human can open in a browser to read and edit the content directly. **Works on any baton; best on a `checkpoint`** — that is the document shape, where a save replaces the current state so every reader (human or agent) sees the same thing. On append-shaped batons (scratchpad, ledger) a save adds an entry and the editor shows the newest entry only. Example: mint_token {id:"bat_<id>", type:"read_write"}

read_baton ~116

Read a baton's content + metadata. FREE (reads draw down the prepaid egress budget, no per-call charge). Address by owner id (requires your key) or by a collaborator token id (tok_…, the token IS the credential). Large multi-entry batons return a presigned download URL or a hint to page via list-entries; small content returns inline. Example: read_baton {id:"bat_<id>"}

NameTypeReqDescription
idstringyesBaton id, or a collaborator token id (tok_…).

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

search_tools ~155

Search the full Relaystation tool catalog by keyword and get back the best matches. Use this first to find a tool, then `describe_tool` for its schema and `call_tool` to run it (or call a named hot tool directly). `query` is free text (e.g. "merge pdf", "csv to json", "send telegram"). `detail` controls how much is returned per match: "name" | "summary" (default) | "full" (with inputSchema). `limit` defaults to 5. FREE. Example: search_tools {query:"merge pdf", limit:5}

NameTypeReqDescription

limitinteger
querystringyes

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

sign_contract ~208

Append your consent to a contract (one entry on its hash chain). FREE. Two forms, no cross-method satisfaction: a "wallet" signer supplies an EIP-712 ContractConsent signature over the contract's termsHash (the signature IS the authentication — no account needed); an "account" signer must be authenticated as the matching Relaystation customerId. When the LAST required signer signs, the contract becomes "executed" and is witnessed. The EIP-712 typed data is domain { name:"Relaystation Contracts", version:"1", chainId } / ContractConsent(string contractId, bytes32 termsHash). Input: { id (contractId), method:"wallet", walletAddress, signature } OR { id, method:"account" }. Returns the updated contract view. Example: sign_contract {id:"<contract-id>", method:"account"}

Common questions

What is the Relaystation MCP server?

Relaystation is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as ai.relaystation/relaystation. Pay-per-call agent infrastructure: file storage & handoff, compute tools, messaging, e-sign, KYC. This page covers its hosted endpoint (https://api.relaystation.ai/mcp).

Is the Relaystation MCP server safe to use?

Relaystation scores 83 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.

What tools does the Relaystation MCP server expose?

Relaystation exposes 14 tools: ask_operator, message_agent, create_agent_address, create_baton, read_baton, and 9 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 2,748 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the Relaystation MCP server require authentication?

Yes. Relaystation asked us for credentials when we connected, so you will need to authorise it in your MCP client before it can do anything.

Is the Relaystation MCP server still maintained?

Relaystation is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 21 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
