Satring MCP Server

What is Satring?

Satring is a curated directory of paid APIs that accept payments via the L402 protocol (Bitcoin Lightning) or the x402 protocol (USDC on Base). It helps AI agents and developers discover, rate, and connect to paid API services.

How to use Satring?

Clone the repository, create a Python virtual environment, install dependencies, copy .env.example to .env and configure wallet keys (or leave defaults for test mode), then run uvicorn app.main:app --reload. In test mode (AUTH_ROOT_KEY=test-mode), all payment gates are bypassed. For AI agents, install the satring-mcp package via pip or pipx and add it to your MCP client configuration.
