Question 1

What kind of MCP primitives (tools) does HTTPayer provide for AI agents?

Accepted Answer

HTTPayer exposes several MCP primitives to AI agents, such as `get_balance` for credit checks, `fetch` for making API calls, `simulate` for cost estimates, `get_topup_link` for adding credits, and `check_limits` for system capacity.

Question 2

What is HTTPayer and how does it help AI agents?

Accepted Answer

HTTPayer is a tool that allows AI agents (e.g., Claude Code, Cursor) to easily call x402-enabled APIs using a simple credit balance. It automates micropayment handling, removing the need for crypto wallets, blockchain, or Web3 knowledge for agents.

Question 3

Which AI clients and agents are compatible with HTTPayer?

Accepted Answer

HTTPayer integrates seamlessly with popular AI clients and agents that support the Model Context Protocol (MCP), including Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, OpenCode, Zed, and others, making setup quick and easy.

Question 4

How does HTTPayer handle payments to x402-enabled APIs?

Accepted Answer

When an AI agent requests an x402 API through HTTPayer's proxy, HTTPayer automatically detects the payment requirement, uses your existing credit balance to pay, and retries the request, returning the final response to the agent. All blockchain interaction occurs on HTTPayer's side.

Question 5

Does HTTPayer require me to use a crypto wallet or understand blockchain?

Accepted Answer

No. HTTPayer completely abstracts away the complexity of blockchain and Web3. Payments for x402 APIs are managed via a straightforward credit-based system, eliminating the need for wallets or crypto expertise.
