Verantis MCP
The verified directory for machine payments - as an MCP tool. Give any MCP-capable agent (Claude, Cursor, agent frameworks) the ability to check what it's about to pay before it pays. Verantis continuously probes machine-payable services across x402 and MPP, measures on-chain reputation, and publishes a recomputable record. This server is a thin client of the public Verantis API - standard library only, no dataset…
People connecting finance tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

Security posture
What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.
runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions · remote - your agent's requests go to api.verantis.ai
endpoint auth accepted our unauthenticated MCP initialize - no credentials needed to connect
repo age created 2026-08-16 - young repo, little track record yet
license MIT - declared in the repository
pypi package verantis-mcp - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)
registry namespace io.github.m9labs-railscope is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
03 · What Verantis MCP can do
Prose above is summarized from the project's README and registry record - no invented capabilities.
What you can build
An agent gets 4 documented tools across read & search, check, directory, including find_paid_service, get_service, check_wallet, directory_stats.
Capability map
Tools grouped from the project's README - what Verantis MCP lets an agent do.
read & search
2 tools - e.g. Search the verified directory (x402 / MPP). Filter by verified-only, price, chain, protocol, category, reputation.; Full record + verification provenance for one domain.
find_paid_service · get_service
Check
1 tool - e.g. Pre-payment guard - pass the recipient wallet a service asked you to pay; get its earned reputation tier, on-chain buyer retention, and which services it fronts
check_wallet
Directory
1 tool - e.g. Index-level stats: services, verification breakdown, freshness.
directory_stats
Limitations (from the README)
Informational only; not financial, investment, or legal advice. Classifications describe what live probes and on-chain reads observed at a point in time and can change. Reputation is earned from real on-chain settlement, not assumed. Verantis has no rail of its own, no token, and no stake in any listed service.
