Sats4AI is an MCP server that gives you access to 10+ AI tools, paid per use with Bitcoin Lightning. No API key, no signup — the Lightning payment is the only authentication.

You Need a Lightning Wallet
To pay invoices, add a wallet MCP server alongside Sats4AI. The easiest options:

npm install -g lightning-wallet-mcp
lw register --name "my-agent" # save the API key
lw deposit 10000 # fund with any wallet
