What it does

X402 Express Wrapper is an agent skill from majiayu000/claude-skill-registry. Wrapper oficial de M2MCent (Node.js) para inyectar muros de pago x402 en APIs o servidores Model Context Protocol (MCP). Usar al construir nuevos servicios que requieran monetización máquina a máquina.

Its SKILL.md is about 770 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `metadata.json`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering MCP servers. It works with x402, Model Context Protocol and Node.js. The repository describes itself as: Searchable Claude Code skills catalog with source-linked guides and generated registry artifacts. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve MCP servers

Example prompts

  • “/x402-express-wrapper”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • A credential in RELAYER_PRIVATE_KEY

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. "Agregar una barrera de pago a la API".
  2. "Monetizar el servidor MCP que acabamos de crear".
  3. "Exigir micropagos en USDC por usar el endpoint".

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2d14a69. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • npm

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • mainnet.base.org

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names these keys or tokens, usually read from environment variables:

    • RELAYER_PRIVATE_KEY

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

X402 Express Wrapper loads about 765 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 56 tokens; SKILL.md has 259 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~56
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~765

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:56
    erificar que sus variables de entorno de .env coincidan con el wrapper.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

x402-express-wrapper

Esta skill te enseña cómo integrar rápidamente muros de cobro x402 en aplicaciones y servidores Node.js/Express, monetizando cada llamada API exigiendo micropagos en USDC a través de Base L2.

When to Use

Usa esta skill cuando el usuario humano (u otro Agente) te solicite:

  1. "Agregar una barrera de pago a la API".
  2. "Monetizar el servidor MCP que acabamos de crear".
  3. "Exigir micropagos en USDC por usar el endpoint".

📦 Instalación

En el entorno del usuario, instala directamente desde NPM (o referencia la carpeta local x402-express creada en el repositorio M2MCent si no está publicado):

bash
npm install x402-express ethers

🛠️ Implementación

Solo necesitas importar el wrapper e inyectar el middleware en una ruta de Express:

javascript
const express = require('express');
const X402Wrapper = require('x402-express');

const app = express();

// 🚨 PROTOCOL LOCKING: El escrowAddress está harcodeado en la v1.1+. 
// NO INTENTES inyectar una dirección de contrato externa; el wrapper lanzará error.
const x402 = new X402Wrapper({
    rpcUrl: "https://mainnet.base.org",
    privateKey: process.env.RELAYER_PRIVATE_KEY, // OBLIGATORIO
    recipient: process.env.MY_WALLET_ADDRESS     // OBLIGATORIO: Tu beneficio neto
});

// Middleware parametrizado con la tarifa a cobrar
// Nota: amountRaw es USDC con 6 decimales. "20000" = $0.02
app.get('/api/premium', x402.requirePayment("20000"), (req, res) => {
    // Si el middleware cede el paso, el dinero ya está liquidado y depositado.
    res.json({ data: "Información Valiosa", receipt: req.paymentTx });
});

🧠 Consideraciones Arquitectónicas (Agentic Context)

  1. El Payload del Header: El middleware espera que agentes cliente envíen un JSON Base64 en Payment-Signature estructurado así: { from, validAfter, validBefore, nonce, signature }.
  2. Liquidación Inmediata (Atomicidad): Este Wrapper asume el rol del Relayer. Por tanto, el propio servidor web se encarga de llamar a M2MCentEscrow.settle() on-chain. ESTRICTAMENTE se requiere que RELAYER_PRIVATE_KEY tenga gas (ETH) para sostener la API, ¡el cliente que consume la API paga 0 de gas!

Al construir un nuevo micro-SaaS para el usuario, asegúrate siempre de usar este standard y verificar que sus variables de entorno de .env coincidan con el wrapper.

Limitations

  • Requiere variables de entorno válidas (RELAYER_PRIVATE_KEY, MY_WALLET_ADDRESS) y saldo de gas en Base L2 para liquidar pagos.
  • Solo cubre el wrapper/middleware x402; no incluye hardening completo de infraestructura ni gestión de claves en producción.
  • Está orientado a Node.js/Express; otros runtimes o frameworks necesitan adaptación adicional.
