MCP tools · 3 exposed · ~325 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
triage_x402_surface ~163

Run a no-payment external pass against one public x402, MPP, Pay.sh, OpenAPI, manifest, or HTTP 402 endpoint. The tool calls the Tate Programs public triage API and returns status, payment headers, parsed challenge shape, attack-class checks, cache/CORS notes, and paid review handoff. It does not send X-PAYMENT, wallet signatures, API keys, private tokens, or paid calls.

NameTypeReqDescription
methodstringNo-payment probe method. Use POST only for endpoints that intentionally expose a public paid POST route.
originstringOptional browser Origin for CORS/payment-header readability checks.
urlstringyesPublic HTTPS manifest, OpenAPI file, paid endpoint, or discovery URL to review.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

watch_402_index ~127

Look up public 402 Index service records by provider, domain, endpoint URL, or search term. Use this before listing, outreach, launch review, or re-check work to spot down services, invalid payment requirements, and unverified domains. This is public metadata only and does not send payment headers or paid calls.

NameTypeReqDescription
healthstringOptional health filter.
limitnumberMaximum records to return.
protocolstringProtocol filter.
qstringyes402 Index search term, provider name, domain, service URL, or endpoint URL.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

x402_paid_paths ~35

Return the Tate Programs paid x402 API endpoints, service catalog, AgentCard, and fixed-scope review handoff URLs.

Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
