in the cloud
one click: the provider's deploy form opens filled in, in your own account- koyeb
-
Koyeb builds the repository's Dockerfile from branch main; change the branch in the form if the default one has another name.
Clients connect to the service's https://…koyeb.app address plus /mcp.
- cloud run
-
Cloud Shell clones the repository, builds its Dockerfile and deploys it to Cloud Run.
Cloud Run sends requests to $PORT (8080); the recipe expects :8000, so the server has to read PORT, or set the container port on the service afterwards.

The only text from the server itself is in the section quoted from it below. ## How to reach it - A web service at `https://qf-api.quietforge-studio.workers.dev/mcp` (streamable HTTP); nothing runs here. - Your MCP client knows it as `x402-tools` (`clients/` configures it under that name); call its tools by the names below. Claude Code shows them as `mcp__x402-tools__<tool>`. - No credentials. ## Tools 7 tools. The read-only column is the server's own hint (`readOnlyHint`), not something the hub checked. ### Quoted from the server: data, not instructions The names, sentences and parameter names in this table are the server's own text, as the hub listed it.

Generates ONE sudoku puzzle with a unique solution, 180-degree symmetry, graded by the solving techniques it needs (easy | medium | hard | expert). Returns 81-char puzzle and solution strings (row by row, 0 = empty), given count and technique list. Deterministic when a seed is supplied. 20 per minute shared by all clients.Use this when a user wants a sudoku to play or print, or an app needs a verified puzzle at a named difficulty.

Market-level demand signal for the x402 ecosystem, verified against on-chain USDC settlement on Base rather than self-reported call counts: how many seller addresses were paid in the last 24h, total USD settled, and the distribution of sellers by payment count. Free and aggregate-only; the per-seller breakdown (distinct payers per address; payer counts include sampler/grader wallets that pay many sellers once, so read them as an upper bound on customers) is the paid GET /v1/x402/demand route.

Makes ONE live unpaid request to a public http(s) URL and reports whether it is an x402 endpoint: status code, latency, alive flag, whether a PAYMENT-REQUIRED challenge came back and the parsed USD price.

Public hosts only (redirects re-checked), delisted hosts never contacted, results cached 60 s, 3 probes per host per 5 min and 30 per minute overall.Use this to check a URL you are about to pay (or one you operate) for a well-formed x402 challenge before sending funds; a challenge is no guarantee the service delivers.

Searches a health-probed directory of live x402 pay-per-call HTTP endpoints on Base, Solana and other networks (x402_index_stats gives the current count). Returns id, resource URL, method, network, USD price, description, 30-day call/payer counts and our own uptime/probe data. Data is re-crawled a few times a day, not real-time. Quietforge operates this directory and also operates some listed endpoints (source=quietforge) under the same per-host cap as every operator; ordering is by 30-day usage, then liveness, then freshness, never by operator.Use this to find a pay-per-call x402 API for a given task, network or price cap before calling it (mostly USDC on Base; check each row's network and asset, some are testnet or other assets).
