Use case

AgentGate + Anthropic MCP

The Model Context Protocol lets Claude connect to external tools without custom code. AgentGate exposes an MCP server: configure it once, and Claude handles your payments securely.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standard created by Anthropic that allows AI agents to connect to external tools in a standardized way. Rather than writing a specific integration for each tool, you configure an MCP server once. Claude automatically detects the available tools and can call them directly in its responses.

2-minute setup

Add AgentGate to the MCP configuration of Claude Desktop or your Claude application:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agentgate": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@agentgate/mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "AGENTGATE_API_KEY": "your_api_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

That's it. Claude can now submit payments via the submit_payment_intent tool exposed by the MCP server. Every payment goes through your AgentGate rules before being authorized.
