MCP tools · 19 exposed · ~1,471 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
coord_arrive ~100

Report that this part is done. Pass the arriveUrl from coord_barrier plus a part name and optional ctx (whatever you want handed to whoever consumes the released barrier). Idempotent per part: a retrying agent cannot inflate the count.

NameTypeReqDescription
arriveUrlstringyes–
ctx––this part's result, collected into the release event
partstringyesunique name for this part, e.g. "scout"

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

coord_barrier ~149

BARRIER: "wake me when all N of my sub-agents finish." Returns an arriveUrl — hand it to each sub-agent (it is a capability: they can arrive but cannot read or delete your workspace). When the N-th part arrives we fire ONE webhook carrying every part's collected context. If the TTL passes first you get a "partial" event naming exactly who never showed. Timeout is a feature, not an error.

coord_events ~44

Collect barrier releases/partials that happened while nothing of yours was running.

NameTypeReqDescription
secretstring––
sincestring––
workspaceIdstringyes–

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

coord_lock ~133

LOCK: "only one agent does this irreversible thing." Returns a leaseId, or 409 with who holds it. The lease AUTO-EXPIRES after ttlSeconds, so a crashed agent can never deadlock your fleet. Call coord_release when done (or just let it expire).

NameTypeReqDescription

No examples provided.

coord_workspace ~97

Buy a coordination workspace ($0.25 / 7 days, 1000 ops) — the only x402 seller of multi-agent primitives. After this ONE payment, every barrier and lock operation is FREE and FAST (no per-op settlement). Use it to fan-in sub-agents (coord_barrier) and to stop two agents doing the same irreversible thing (coord_lock).

NameTypeReqDescription
webhookUrlstring–default webhook for coordination events

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

create_watch ~212

Buy a standing watch from DataSieve (https://api.datasieve.xyz). standard = $0.10/7d, 1 condition, 50 triggers; composite = $0.25/7d, up to 5 any-match conditions (e.g. 5 heartbeat dead-man switches), 200 triggers; standard30 = $0.35/30d and composite30 = $0.85/30d — one payment covers the month, for agents that will not be awake to renew weekly. Payment is a gasless USDC transfer signed locally. Events go to your webhookUrl (HMAC-signed) if set, and always to a server-side mailbox drained with drain_events; every event carries a signed Ed25519 observation receipt you can replay to third parties. Failed calls are never billed. The watch id + secret are remembered locally so later calls need only the id.

NameTypeReqDescription
conditionsarrayyes–
tierstring––
webhookUrlstring––

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

cron_next ~111

Next N run times for a cron expression in any IANA timezone, plus seconds-until-next. If the goal is for something to HAPPEN at those times, create_watch with a schedule condition instead — DataSieve fires the cron as signed webhooks for the life of the watch.

NameTypeReqDescription
countinteger––
cronstringyes5- or 6-field cron expression, e.g. "0 9 * * 1-5"

NameTypeReqDescription
secretstring––

drain_events ~58

Collect everything the watch caught — works with zero infrastructure (the mailbox pattern). Pass `since` = last seen event id for incremental drains.

NameTypeReqDescription
secretstring––
sincestring––
watchIdstringyes–

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

pause_watch ~62

Stop a watch firing (chain, web, heartbeat, schedule) without deleting it. The expiry clock keeps running. Use before a planned agent shutdown so your dead-man switch does not cry wolf.

NameTypeReqDescription
secretstring––
watchIdstringyes–

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

payment_status ~54

Check whether a buying key is configured and whether it can afford a watch. Reports the wallet address, its USDC balance on the configured network, and what each tier costs. Call this before create_watch; it never spends anything.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

ping_heartbeat ~61

Keep a dead-man switch alive. Pass the pingUrl from create_watch (or a watchId whose ping URLs are in local state). Call this at least once per intervalSeconds.

NameTypeReqDescription
pingUrlstring––
watchIdstring––

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

renew_watch ~64

Extends the watch one more period (7 days, or 30 on the *30 tiers) at its tier price and resets the trigger budget. Renewing a paused watch also reactivates it.

NameTypeReqDescription
tierstring––
watchIdstringyes–

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

resume_watch ~52

Backlog-free resume: heartbeat deadlines restart from now and schedules jump to their next FUTURE slot — nothing that elapsed during the pause replays.

NameTypeReqDescription
secretstring––
watchIdstringyes–

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

service_health ~24

Scanner cursor lag vs chain head — verify the watcher is alive before you buy.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

verify_receipt ~80

Every DataSieve event carries receipt {alg, keyId, statement, sig} — an Ed25519 attestation that DataSieve observed the event. This checks it against the service key, so an agent can validate evidence handed to it by ANOTHER agent without trusting that agent.

NameTypeReqDescription
receiptobjectyesthe receipt object from an event

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

watch_status ~69

State, heartbeat lastCheckedAt, triggersUsed/cap, expiry, delivery stats, and for dead-man switches: up/down, lastPingAt, nextDeadline, pingUrl. Secret is looked up from local state if omitted.

NameTypeReqDescription
secretstring––
watchIdstringyes–

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

x402_ping ~46

The cheapest possible real x402 purchase: proves this wallet + client can pay a production seller before you point it at anything expensive. Returns payer + network; failed calls are never billed.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

Common questions

What is the io.github.gitwormq/datasieve MCP server?

io.github.gitwormq/datasieve is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.gitwormq/datasieve. On-chain watches, web-page monitors, dead-man switches, cron, and agent coordination, paid via x402. This page covers its npm package (datasieve-mcp).

Is the io.github.gitwormq/datasieve MCP server safe to use?

io.github.gitwormq/datasieve scores 77 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 24 September 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts.

io.github.gitwormq/datasieve exposes 19 tools: create_watch, watch_status, drain_events, renew_watch, delete_watch, and 14 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,471 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Is the io.github.gitwormq/datasieve MCP server still maintained?

io.github.gitwormq/datasieve is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 24 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.

What licence is the io.github.gitwormq/datasieve MCP server under?

io.github.gitwormq/datasieve declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
