Getting Started with MCP Services

This guide shows you how to connect to Cred Protocol’s MCP services using different methods.

Prerequisites

Paid MCP tools need credentials: an API key from the Cred Protocol Dashboard, or a per-request x402 / MPP payment if you’d rather not create an account. Agent-registry reads (get_agent_count, list_agents, search_agents, get_agent, get_reputation_status) are free.

Method 1: HTTP Endpoints (Simplest)

The easiest way to use MCP services is through the HTTP endpoints.

Step 2: Use in Cursor

Once configured, you can ask Cursor’s AI:
“What’s the credit score for vitalik.eth?”
The AI will automatically call the MCP tool and respond with the result.

Method 3: Claude Code

For Claude Code (CLI, desktop app, or IDE extensions), add to your project’s .mcp.json:
Once configured, you can ask Claude Code directly:
“What’s the credit score for vitalik.eth?”

Method 4: Claude Desktop

For Claude Desktop, add to your MCP configuration:

Method 5: Custom HTTP Client

Build your own client using standard HTTP requests:

Python

JavaScript/TypeScript
