One-line install — curl, restart, ask.

Auto-detects Claude Desktop, Cursor, and Cline configs. Adds spawnpay-mcp + 6 free demo MCPs (translate, weather, currency, research, scrape, screenshot). Idempotent — re-running merges with what's already there. 5 seconds.

Run this curl -fsSL https://spawnpay.ai/install | bash

What it does

  1. Verifies Node 18+ and npx are installed.
  2. Detects your agent config file (Claude Desktop / Cursor / Cline) by OS.
  3. Backs up the existing config (timestamped .spawnpay-backup.<ts>).
  4. Merges in the mcpServers block — does not overwrite existing entries.
  5. Tells you what was written and what to do next.

What gets added

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "spawnpay":   { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "spawnpay-mcp"] },
    "translate":  { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "...paid-translate-mcp"] },
    "weather":    { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "...paid-weather-mcp"] },
    "currency":   { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "...paid-currency-mcp"] },
    "research":   { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "...paid-research-mcp"] },
    "scrape":     { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "...paid-cloud-scrape-mcp"] },
    "screenshot": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "...paid-screenshot-mcp"] }
  }
}

Then

  1. Restart your agent.
  2. Ask it to call a tool. Example: Use the translate tool to say "hello" in French.
  3. First call auto-creates a Spawnpay wallet with $7 USDC free credit. The agent reports the wallet address back to you.

Safety

The installer is a single bash file you can read first: /install. It runs locally — no telemetry, no remote calls except to npm for the MCP packages. Every config write is backed up.

Manual install (if curl-bash makes you nervous)

Open /quickstart. Paste the config block manually. Same result, more friction.

Or skip the agent setup, try it in browser first. PLAYGROUND → COST CALCULATOR → PRICING →
