DDG Agent Services — Claude Code MCP server: features and setup
Connect an agent to DDG’s paid model routing, website audits, and Ethereum RPC. Requests need an agent ID and private key.
claude mcp add --env DDG_AGENT_ID=<DDG_AGENT_ID> --env DDG_PRIVATE_KEY=<DDG_PRIVATE_KEY> --transport stdio ddg-agent-services -- uvx ddg-agent-services-mcpWhat DDG Agent Services does
DDG Agent Services connects agents to paid DDG services, including website audits, outreach drafts, and model routing. Its Ethereum RPC route allows reads through approved methods; transaction-submission methods are blocked by default. Payment can use x402 or direct crypto, while some routes depend on service readiness.
For Claude Code, the setup command runs uvx ddg-agent-services-mcp and passes DDG_AGENT_ID and DDG_PRIVATE_KEY. Public paid routes reject requests without an agent identity header. That requirement matters if you expect to use the services as a person without configuring an agent identity.
What it helps with
- request a read-only website audit
- route a prompt through DDG model access
- query Ethereum through an approved RPC method
- draft an outreach brief
Example prompts for the agent
- Ask DDG to audit this site and return the findings.
- Send this prompt through DDG’s paid model route.
- Query Ethereum through DDG RPC using a read-only method.
