BridgeNode MCP tools (3, 1 write)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

chat_completionswrite actionFree
Send a chat completion request to any supported model. Free models are served without payment; the first calls to a PAID model are also free per client (free trials), after which x402 payment (Solana USDC) is required — an unpaid call returns 402 with the exact price; retry with _meta["x402/payment"]. Responses are non-streaming. Pass either mode (auto/eco/premium) or model (explicit id) — one of the two is required; model wins if both are sent. Use this tool to generate text; inspect models and prices first with the free list_models tool. Start with a FREE model (no payment at all) and keep max_tokens >= 200 — a thinking model spends part of that budget on reasoning, so a smaller limit can return an empty answer.
get_price_estimateFree
Estimate the USDC cost of a chat completion request before paying — free, no payment, no authentication required. Read-only: no state changes and no external calls; the estimate is computed locally from server pricing config, so repeated calls with identical inputs return identical results (idempotent). Use this tool to check the exact price for a given model/mode, messages, and max_tokens before calling the paid chat_completions tool. Provide either mode (auto/eco/premium routing) or model (explicit id, mutually exclusive with mode); one of the two is required — if both are sent, model wins. mode values: auto = cheapest model fitting the context, eco = cheapest available, premium = best model.
list_modelsFree
List available models and their prices — free, no payment, no authentication required. Read-only: no state changes; data is served from the server's local config, so repeated calls return identical results (idempotent). Accepts no parameters: the input schema is an empty object, and any arguments passed are ignored. Calling it without arguments returns the complete catalog with per-token prices; there is no filtering, pagination, or configuration. Use this tool to inspect models and prices before calling the paid chat_completions tool. Same data as GET /v1/models (§5.2). Do not use it to generate text (use chat_completions) or to estimate a specific request's cost (use get_price_estimate).

How BridgeNode MCP compares

Against every graded AI and agents MCP server, from our own scans and uptime checks. Updated after each scan run.

Safety score: 85/100; higher than 73% of 4,460 AI and agents servers
Tools: 3; the typical AI and agents server has 6
Tools that change things: 33%; typical: 0%. Fewer write tools means less an agent can break
Uptime: 100%; of our recent checks; the typical remote AI and agents server answers 100%
Response time: 303 ms; faster than 47% of 2,331 AI and agents servers
GitHub stars: 1; more than 50% of 2,711 AI and agents servers

What the publisher says

From the BridgeNode MCP repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

@bridgenode/mcp

Built for AI agents — no API keys, no registration, pay-as-you-go with Solana USDC via x402. Start free: free models and 2 free calls on paid models per client, no wallet required.

BridgeNode MCP wrapper — stdio MCP server that proxies requests to the remote https://bridgenode.cc/mcp (streamable-HTTP) with automatic x402 payment (Solana USDC). No API keys, no registration.

Installation (one-command)

claude mcp add bridgenode -s user -- npx -y @bridgenode/mcp@latest

Or manually (Claude Code, Cursor, other MCP clients):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bridgenode": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@bridgenode/mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}

Configuration (.env)

# Solana wallet private key (base58) — agent's payment wallet
# Optional — Solana wallet private key (base58). Needed only for PAID calls:
# free models and the 2 free trials work without it.
BRIDGENODE_WALLET_KEY=

# Spending policy (fail-closed)
BRIDGENODE_MAX_PER_CALL=0.05
BRIDGENODE_DAILY_CAP=1.0

Tools

chatcompletions — AI inference (free models run without payment; the first 2 calls to a PAID model are free per client, then x402 payment is automatic). Accepts OpenAI-style tools / toolchoice — the model's answer then carries tool_calls (the wrapper passes arguments through unchanged)
list_models — model list (free)
getpriceestimate — estimate cost of a chat request (free)

How it works

signs the payment with BRIDGENODEWALLETKEY and retries the request

Local MCP client launches the wrapper via stdio
Wrapper connects to https://bridgenode.cc/mcp (streamable HTTP)
On tools/call receiving 402 (payment required) — the wrapper automatically

Spending policy checks every payment BEFORE signing (fail-closed)
