Schema Quality & AI Usability78
  • AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass

  • Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
  • 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
  • 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
  • No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
  • We read all 14 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
  • An AI judge read all 14 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass

Install

How do I install the x402 Toolbox MCP server?

x402 Toolbox is a hosted endpoint at https://lab.paidapis.net/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.

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 →

Is the x402 Toolbox MCP server safe to use?

x402 Toolbox scores 69 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 x402 Toolbox MCP server expose?

x402 Toolbox exposes 14 tools: get_market_snapshot, get_normalized_gas, get_gas_comparator, get_large_transfers, enrich_address, and 9 more. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 1,089 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.

Does the x402 Toolbox MCP server require authentication?

No. We connected to x402 Toolbox without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.

Is the x402 Toolbox MCP server still maintained?

x402 Toolbox is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
