Details
From the project READMESnap Router — MCP server
Task-to-tool discovery for AI agents, pay-per-call in USDC on Base (x402), free tier, no signup.
Hosted API: https://trigeochiral.com — set it as SNAP_API.
Tool
| Tool | What |
|---|---|
snap_router | Your task → the ranked x402 / MCP tools that serve it, over the merged x402 Bazaar + MCP Registry catalog (16k+). One pass, ~200ms, no LLM call. $0.003 |
Why
Past ~2,000 tools, semantic retrieval beats keyword and beats long-context. Coinbase's Bazaar
/ask is LLM-ranked (a model call on every task); 402index falls back to keyword-only when its
embedding service times out. Snap Router has neither hole.
Install
pip install snap-router-mcp
claude mcp add snap-router --env SNAP_API=https://trigeochiral.com -- snap-router-mcp
or with uvx (no install):
claude mcp add snap-router --env SNAP_API=https://trigeochiral.com -- uvx snap-router-mcp
Optional: SNAP_XPAYMENT = a base64 x402 X-PAYMENT payload, to make paid calls past the free
tier. Without it you get 25 free calls/day per IP.
Direct HTTP (no 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.
