MCP support
Provides a native MCP endpoint at `https://relay.imagiolabs.com/mcp` using Streamable HTTP. Tool discovery is free; tool calls require an x402 payment in USDC on Base.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

From the project READMEImagio Relay
57 deterministic, pay-per-call tools for AI agents over x402 — pay in USDC on Base, settled through the PayAI facilitator.
- Native MCP server:
https://relay.imagiolabs.com/mcp(Streamable HTTP) - Live service manifest: https://relay.imagiolabs.com
- x402 manifest: https://relay.imagiolabs.com/.well-known/x402
- MCP Registry entry:

Every endpoint is deterministic unless labeled LLM-backed, returns clean JSON, and prices are dynamic (market-floor + analyst-adjusted) between $0.0015 and $0.05 per call.

Quickstart
MCP (Claude / Cursor / any MCP client):
{
"mcpServers": {
"imagio-relay": {
"type": "url",
"url": "https://relay.imagiolabs.com/mcp"
}
}
}
initialize and tools/list are free. A tools/call returns 402 with payment terms; sign the X-PAYMENT header and retry — the facilitator settles on-chain and the tool executes.
Plain HTTP (any x402 client): call any endpoint; the 402 response carries the accepts object (scheme exact, network Base, USDC). Sign per the x402 spec, retry with X-PAYMENT.
Payments
- Asset: USDC on Base (
eip155:8453) - Facilitator: PayAI (settlement gas covered by PayAI)
- Settlement identity: the live
pay_tois published in the manifest — we never hold custody of in-flight funds; payments settle straight to the payout wallet - Escrow agreements: also available for multi-step jobs via Kite Passport (
did:kite:auto-g2qw74:imagio-relay)

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
