Details
From the project READMEtollbooth-x402
Free MCP server for x402toll.com — a toll plaza of verified, pay-per-call calculators for AI agents. Discover the catalog, run free coarse previews, verify any paid response's provenance hash, and learn how to pay. The paid endpoints charge a few cents of USDC per call over the x402 protocol on Base — no account, no API key.
Why agents pay: the answers depend on exact 2026 data (tax brackets, contribution limits, state fees) a model can't reliably know, every answer is checked against hand-verified reference values, and each ships with a formula trace and a reproducible SHA-256 hash.

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.
