forge-cu-mcp

# forge-mcp > MCP server for the Forge compute economy. Gives AI assistants direct access to CU balance, inference, and safety controls. ## Install ```bash pip install forge-mcp ``` ## Setup ### Claude Code Add to `~/.claude/settings.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "forge": { "command": "forge-mcp", "env": { "FORGE_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:3000" } } } } ``` ### Cursor Add to `.cursor/mcp.json`: ```json { "mcpServers": { "forge": { "command": "forge-mcp" } } } ``` ## Available Tools | Tool | Description | |------|-------------| | `forge_balance` | Check CU balance and reputation | | `forge_pricing` | Get market price and cost estimates | | `forge_inference` | Run LLM inference (costs CU) | | `forge_trades` | View trade history | | `forge_network` | Mesh economic summary + Merkle root | | `forge_providers` | Compare providers by cost and reputation | | `forge_safety` | Check safety status | | `forge_invoice` | Create Lightning invoice for CU cashout | | `forge_kill_switch` | Emergency halt (freeze all transactions) | ## What Can AI Do With This? - Check balance before making expensive decisions - Compare providers and choose the cheapest - Monitor spending velocity - Cash out earnings to Bitcoin Lightning - Hit the emergency stop if something goes wrong The AI manages its own compute budget. Humans set the policy (budget limits, kill switch). The AI operates within those bounds autonomously.
