Deploy AI agents on-chain into the Metaplex Agent Registry on Solana, from any MCP client.
One flow mints a Metaplex Core asset and registers its EIP-8004 agent identity (a single atomic transaction when it fits Solana's 1232-byte limit, create + register in sequence otherwise, exactly how the Genesis 333 landed), so the agent shows up on metaplex.com/agents with its own built-in wallet, reputation surface, and explorer pages. The default output reproduces the exact shape of the three.ws Genesis 333 mints, verified byte-for-byte against the live assets:
- asset metadata as a self-contained
data:application/json;base64URI (name,image,animation_urlGLB) - Royalties plugin (5% to the owner), VerifiedCreators (the signing wallet), ImmutableMetadata
- AgentIdentity plugin carrying the
eip-8004#registration-v1document (model.uri,active,x402Support,registrations,supportedTrust)
Two signing lanes, both self-custodial:
- Agents sign with their own keypair (
SOLANA_SECRET_KEY):mint_onchain_agent. - People sign with Phantom, Solflare, Backpack, Ledger, or any Solana wallet:
prepare_agent_mintbuilds the transaction, the wallet signs it,send_signed_transactionbroadcasts it. No key ever touches the server.
A mainnet deploy pays a flat 0.02 SOL fee, in the same transaction as the mint, and that fee funds $THREE buybacks. Hold $THREE and it halves, then disappears; devnet never pays it. Every preview shows the number and its recipient before anything is signed. See $THREE: the deploy fee and the holder waiver.
Nothing is mocked: real Metaplex programs, real Solana, and devnet support for free end-to-end rehearsal.
Install
npm install -g @three-ws/metaplex-agent-mcp
# or run ad hoc
npx -y @three-ws/metaplex-agent-mcp
Setup
Claude Code:
claude mcp add metaplex-agent -e SOLANA_SECRET_KEY=<base58> -- npx -y @three-ws/metaplex-agent-mcp
Cursor / any MCP client (mcp.json):
{
"mcpServers": {
"metaplex-agent": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@three-ws/metaplex-agent-mcp"],
"env": { "SOLANA_SECRET_KEY": "<base58 secret key>" }
}
}
}
SOLANA_SECRET_KEY is optional: every read tool and the whole Phantom/Solflare flow works without it.
Quick start
Rehearse on devnet for free, then go to mainnet:
1. agent_wallet {} → confirm the signer is funded
2. mint_onchain_agent { name: "Astra", description: "…",
image: "https://…png", model_url: "https://…glb",
x402_support: true, network: "devnet" } → preview (nothing broadcast)
3. …same call with confirm: true → minted + registered, links returned
4. get_onchain_agent { asset: "<returned asset>", network: "devnet" }
A mainnet deploy costs ~0.027 SOL: ~0.007 in Core rent, identity PDA rent, and network fees, plus a flat 0.02 SOL deploy fee that funds $THREE buybacks. Holding $THREE halves that fee and then waives it, and devnet is free. See $THREE.
Tools
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
mint_onchain_agent | Mint + register, signed by your key (atomic when it fits, auto-split otherwise). confirm:true gates the spend; anything else returns a full preview. |
prepare_agent_mint | The same mint, built for an external wallet (wallet param) to sign. Returns txs_base64, already co-signed by the new asset keypair; sign with signTransaction / signAllTransactions. |
send_signed_transaction | Broadcast wallet-signed transactions in order, polling each to confirmation and absorbing the create/register propagation race. |
register_agent_identity | Enrol an already-minted Core asset in the Agent Registry (idempotent; the signer must be the asset authority). |
get_onchain_agent | Read any registered agent: asset, plugins, decoded metadata + registration documents, identity PDA, built-in wallet + balance. |
agent_wallet | An asset's built-in wallet (mpl-core Asset Signer PDA), any address, or the configured signer, with live SOL balance. |
build_registration | The EIP-8004 registration JSON + data: URI, fully offline. |
list_onchain_agents | Latest registrations from the live three.ws /api/deployments feed (Solana by default, all_chains:true for EVM ERC-8004 too). |
three_status | Prices your next deploy: fee schedule, a wallet's live $THREE balance and tier, and the public buyback ledger. |
$THREE: the deploy fee and the holder waiver
A mainnet deploy carries a flat 0.02 SOL fee. Three things about it matter:
- It rides in the same transaction that creates the asset. A deploy that fails, is rejected, or expires moves no money. There is no separate payment step and nothing to reconcile.
- It is disclosed before anything is signed. Every
mint_onchain_agentpreview and everyprepare_agent_mintresponse returnsdeploy_fee_solanddeploy_fee_to, with the tier that produced them. - It funds $THREE buybacks. The fee is paid to the wallet the three.ws
$THREE buyback lane spends from
(
FeMbDoX7R1Psc4GEcvJdsbNbZA3bfztcyDCatJVJpumpis the mint), and the public ledger of what that lane has bought is at/api/three-token/stats. Deploys are the only revenue this package has.
Holding $THREE makes it cheaper, then free:
| $THREE in the paying wallet | Deploy fee |
|---|---|
| under 50,000 | 0.02 SOL |
| 50,000 or more | 0.01 SOL |
| 250,000 or more | free |
The balance is read live from the chain when the transaction is built. Nothing is staked, escrowed, locked, or spent to earn it: hold the tokens in your own wallet and keep them, and the waiver applies to every agent you deploy. Devnet always pays zero, so a full end-to-end rehearsal stays free.
three_status {} → what your next deploy costs and why
three_status { wallet: "<any base58 address>" } → price it for someone else's wallet
Self-hosting a fork with different economics is DEPLOY_FEE_SOL, DEPLOY_FEE_WALLET, and
DEPLOY_FEE_ENABLED.
Customization
Every field the mint touches is a parameter: owner, collection, royalty basis points and splits, verified creator, immutable metadata, on-chain Attributes, permanent freeze/transfer/burn delegates, AddBlocker, off-chain metadata attributes, external_url, services, trust models, registration entries, and full metadata_uri / registration_uri overrides for documents you host yourself. The defaults are the Genesis 333 values, so calling with just name, description, image, and model_url produces an asset indistinguishable in shape from the originals.
Safety
mint_onchain_agentandregister_agent_identitybroadcast only withconfirm: true(setREQUIRE_CONFIRM=falseto opt out); previews cost nothing.- Keys stay yours:
SOLANA_SECRET_KEYor a per-callsecret, never a custodial wallet. The wallet lane needs no key at all. - Balances are checked before spending, RPC endpoints must be HTTPS, and devnet is a first-class target for rehearsal.
Environment variables
| Variable | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
SOLANA_SECRET_KEY | unset | Base58 secret key or JSON byte array for the minting wallet. |
SOLANA_RPC_URL | public endpoint | HTTPS RPC. Bring your own for production traffic. |
METAPLEX_AGENT_NETWORK | mainnet | Default cluster (mainnet or devnet); every tool takes a per-call network too. |
REQUIRE_CONFIRM | true | Gate spends behind confirm: true. |
THREE_WS_BASE | https://three.ws | Host for the deployments feed and the $THREE ledger. |
DEPLOY_FEE_SOL | 0.02 | Mainnet deploy fee, in SOL. |
DEPLOY_FEE_WALLET | three.ws buyback wallet | Where the deploy fee is paid. |
DEPLOY_FEE_ENABLED | true | Set false to build a fork that charges nothing. |
THREE_HALF_PRICE_AT / THREE_FREE_AT | 50000 / 250000 | $THREE balances that halve, then waive, the fee. |
THREE_MINT | $THREE mint | Only to track an updated canonical contract. |
Library use
The builders are exported for direct embedding (web apps, scripts):
import { buildAgentMint, sendAgentMint, buildUmi, toBase58Signature } from '@three-ws/metaplex-agent-mcp/lib';
const umi = buildUmi({ network: 'devnet', secret: process.env.SOLANA_SECRET_KEY });
const mint = buildAgentMint(umi, {
network: 'devnet',
creator: umi.identity.publicKey.toString(),
name: 'Astra',
description: 'An autonomous 3D agent',
image: 'https://example.com/astra.png',
modelUrl: 'https://example.com/astra.glb',
x402Support: true,
});
const { signatures, atomic } = await sendAgentMint(umi, mint, { toBase58Signature });
The registration and metadata builders are also importable on their own (dependency-free, browser-safe) from @three-ws/metaplex-agent-mcp/lib/registration, and the transaction builders from @three-ws/metaplex-agent-mcp/lib/mint. The three.ws /deploy-onchain page runs on exactly these. When atomic is false, combinedBuilder still holds the whole mint: compiled as a Solana transaction v1 (4,096-byte limit) it lands create + register in one atomic transaction, which is what /deploy-onchain does for any wallet that advertises v1 signing.
Requirements
- Node 20+
- SOL on the target network for minting (~0.027 SOL per agent on mainnet, or ~0.007 with the holder waiver; devnet is free via faucet)
