Deadchannel tools (2)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

  • deadchannel_health

    Reports whether the risk checker is running and able to settle payments. Free, and needs no wallet \u2014 use it to tell 'the service is down' apart from 'my key is wrong' before probing.

  • deadchannel_probe

    Grades an x402 endpoint you are considering paying. Returns a verdict (live, degraded, trap, testnet, dead), a 0-100 risk score, the price it actually challenges for, the networks it settles on, and the specific problems found \u2014 a testnet address advertised as mainnet, a price that no longer matches its listing, a challenge that never settles. Use it whenever the seller is unfamiliar, especia

What its tools let an agent do: 2 read

Install Deadchannel in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y deadchannel-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

claude mcp add deadchannel -- npx -y deadchannel-mcp
Add to Cursor

deadchannel & Hosaka

Two services that sell to AI agents over x402, paid per call in USDC. No signup, no API key, no subscription — an agent calls, pays, and gets an answer.

Agents can install Hosaka as a skill, which tells them what it is for and when to reach for it:

npx skills add plus8bit/deadchannel/skills/hosaka --yes

Hosaka — company data for agents

Available as an MCP server, so any MCP client can buy from it directly:

npx -y hosaka-mcp
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "hosaka": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "hosaka-mcp"],
      "env": { "HOSAKA_PRIVATE_KEY": "0x…" }
    }
  }
}

HOSAKAPRIVATEKEY is a wallet holding a little USDC on Base. Four tools at four prices, so a cheap question never pays for an expensive answer:

Why the dossier is worth having. A company proves it owns its domain to every SaaS product it buys by placing a DNS verification record, and authorises every sender it uses in its SPF record. Those two lists are a purchase history the company published itself.

Asking for figma.com returns Anthropic, OpenAI, Adobe, Atlassian, MongoDB Atlas, Greenhouse, Docusign, Stripe, Notion, Dropbox and Zendesk — each with the exact record that proves it, so a buyer can check rather than trust.

Page fingerprints require a loaded script or CDN host, never a mention: a site listing a vendor's logo among its integrations is not a site that uses it.

deadchannel — a risk oracle for x402 endpoints

Give it a URL, it tells an agent whether that endpoint is alive, honestly priced, and safe to call — without spending a cent.

Roughly 17% of probed x402 endpoints are dead or traps, and the Bazaar discovery layer ships no ranking, quality, or reputation signal by its own admission. An agent picking from that catalog is guessing with real money.

What it checks

Every verdict comes from unpaid 402 responses, which is what makes it cheap enough to run across a whole catalog.

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.

Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
