aimarket-mcp — ecosystem MCP gateway

🟢 Just want to try the marketplace? Install nothing.

Paste https://modelmarket.dev/mcp into your MCP client and you have market_search

• market_invoke against the live hub, with a few free trial invokes per caller and a signed receipt for each — no wallet, no key, no install. → docs/hosted-mcp-endpoint.md

Install this package when you want the other three tools (web_fetch, web_search, metis_verify), or want to point the market tools at a hub of your own.

One MCP gateway. Five hardened tools. Shared by Metis, ARGUS, and the ecosystem.

Transport: stdio (aimarket_mcp/stdio_server.py) for Glama / Claude Desktop / Cursor, built with the official Model Context Protocol Python SDK (mcp, FastMCP). Also ships Streamable-HTTP on :9090 for self-hosted deployments (aimarket-mcp-http, Docker Compose).

Compatible hosts: Claude Desktop, Cursor, Glama, and any MCP client that supports stdio or Streamable-HTTP.

Tools

Example — buy a GAIA Open-Meteo reading

market_search_tool(intent="gaia weather open-meteo")
market_invoke_tool(
  capability_id="gaia.weather.read@v1",
  product_id="gaia.gateway",
  source_hub="https://iot.modelmarket.dev",
  # input JSON with device_id om-wx-01 — see tool schema / hub docs
)

Or the same HTTP the tool wraps:

curl -s -X POST "${AIMARKET_HUB_URL:-https://modelmarket.dev}/ai-market/v2/invoke" \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'X-AIMarket-Sandbox-Visitor: vis_mcp_om_wx' \
  -d '{"capability_id":"gaia.weather.read@v1","product_id":"gaia.gateway",
       "source_hub":"https://iot.modelmarket.dev","input":{"device_id":"om-wx-01"}}'

That is the easy path (trial/sandbox). Proving an external wallet paid on-chain is a separate escrow flow (openChannel → DebitAuthorization → hub debit/settle) — see docs/onchain-journal.md §3l–§3m and gaia/docs/LIVE-RELAYS.md.

Why a gateway (not per-agent tools): generic capabilities are written once; the security core lives in one audited place. Ecosystem-specific capabilities live in their own MCP servers (aimarket-oracle-gateway, aimarket-plugins).

Configure (env)

Run (stdio — Glama / Claude Desktop)

Claude Desktop (mcpServers entry) — no clone, no working directory to get wrong:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aimarket-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["aimarket-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

uvx fetches the published package and runs its aimarket-mcp console script, which is the stdio server. With the package already installed, "command": "aimarket-mcp" and no args does the same thing.

From a checkout, for development:

pip install -e .
python -m aimarket_mcp.stdio_server

Run (HTTP — self-host)

pip install -e .
AIMARKET_MCP_KEY=sk-... AIMARKET_MCP_PRODUCTION=1 aimarket-mcp-http   # :9090
# or: docker compose up -d   (uses Dockerfile.http)

Cursor / Claude (Streamable HTTP)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aimarket-web": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "http://127.0.0.1:9090/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_AIMARKET_MCP_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Publish on Glama

Listing: glama.ai/mcp/servers/alexar76/aimarket-mcp

Same pattern as aimarket-oracle-gateway (working on Glama): repo-root glama.json + Dockerfile + python -m aimarket_mcp.stdio_server.

Do not use the auto-generated debian:trixie-slim + uv sync + mcp-proxy -- aimarket-mcp template — that was the broken HTTP/ENOENT path.

Consumers

• Metis — enable the preset:

  enable_mcp_tools: true
  mcp_ecosystem_presets: [aimarket-web]
  

• ARGUS — add the server to argus.config.json mcpServers (see that repo).

Test

pip install -e '.[dev]' && pytest -q

Glama

Glama ignores repo Dockerfiles — set Build steps in admin/dockerfile:

["bash scripts/glama_install.sh"]

CMD: [".venv/bin/python", "-m", "aimarket_mcp.stdio_server"]. Pin main or tag glama-build (not a fixed SHA). Details: docs/GLAMA.md.
