## MCP tools (4)

### `whp_evaluate` (~213 tokens)

- `claim` (string, required): The claim or proposition to evaluate (also accepts aliases: text, prompt, content).
- `idempotency_key` (string): Optional idempotency key for safe execution recovery.
- `payment_signature` (string): Base64 or JSON x402 v2 payment authorization for 1 USDC on Base (network eip155:8453 to 0x1050eddd8282623b0c263ed6bdbd42370bbc28d3).

- `payment_signature` (string)
