Overview

MoonPay Skills are modular capabilities you add to your AI agent via the command line or a plugin marketplace. Each skill maps to a specific onchain action — from swapping tokens to funding prediction markets to accepting crypto payments. Mix and match skills to automate complex workflows without writing infrastructure from scratch.

Note: You don't need to install every skill. Each skill works independently — install only what your workflow needs and add more as you go.

Tip: New to MoonPay CLI? Get set up first with MoonPay CLI for AI agents before installing skills. In this hub, start with moonpay-auth.

Cheshire Terminal mcp-server integration

The package @pump-fun/mcp-server (repo mcp-server/) exposes:

Tool family	Purpose	Auth
`get_moonpay_status` / `get_moonpay_currencies` / `get_moonpay_buy_quote` / `get_moonpay_buy_url`	MoonPay REST catalog + buy widget URLs	`MOONPAY_PUB_KEY` (optional `MOONPAY_SECRET_KEY` to sign URLs)
`get_moonpay_cli_connect`	How to run `mp mcp`	none
`get_paybox_connect` / `set_paybox_session` / `clear_paybox_session`	PayBox session proxy	OAuth bearer
`get_paybox_health` / `get_paybox_oauth_metadata`	Public PayBox API health + discovery	none
`list_paybox_mcp_tools` / `call_paybox_mcp_tool`	Proxy official PayBox tools	session / `PAYBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN`

Env (see mcp-server/.env.example):

MOONPAY_PUB_KEY=pk_test_...   # or pk_live_...
# MOONPAY_SECRET_KEY=sk_...   # optional HMAC for buy.moonpay.com
# PAYBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN=...     # optional; prefer set_paybox_session after OAuth

Non-negotiable rules

Never print, export, or log wallet private keys, seed phrases, or PayBox client secrets.
mp wallet export is interactive-only — agents must not attempt secret extraction.
Fiat checkout and card payments complete in the user's browser / passkey flow — do not claim funds moved until the user confirms or on-chain verification succeeds.
Mutating PayBox tools require explicit user intent and confirm=true on the Cheshire proxy.
Prefer PayBox for agent-scoped vault/signing; prefer MoonPay CLI for local non-custodial wallets; prefer mcp-server REST tools for quotes/widget links without a full CLI session.
