Usage

With Claude Desktop / MCP Client

Add to your MCP config (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "pylon-ai": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/pylon/mcp-servers/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "PYLON_TEST_KEY": "your-test-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Standalone

PYLON_TEST_KEY=your-key node index.js

The server communicates via stdio using the MCP protocol.

x402 Payment Note

All Pylon APIs use the x402 payment protocol for per-call billing on Base. Mainnet payments are not yet live. For now, set the PYLON_TEST_KEY environment variable to bypass payments during testing. The server sends this as the x-test-key header on all API requests.
