ai.market MCP Server — legacy stdio client
Current compatibility
For the current hosted customer connector, use https://connect.ai.market and the ai.market connector setup instructions. This repository is the older stdio client; the installation, examples and tool descriptions below record that implementation and are not a verified current purchase or delivery workflow.
Source comparison on 2026-10-11 (client d3bab634, backend d5307fcc) confirms:
- The client sends
X-API-Key, but does not supply the OAuth Bearer header required by current purchase and wallet-write routes. A successful connection check with zero balance or empty orders does not establish access to the customer's wallet or order history. get_order_datacalls/agent/orders/{id}/data, which is absent from the current Agent router. Current purchased delivery uses seller-controlled infrastructure; this client is not evidence of a working download route.AIMARKET_SANDBOXadds a request header. The old mock-data, fake-balance and no-charge statements below are not end-to-end safety guarantees; do not use a paid action to diagnose compatibility.
The existing operator reference is Legacy MCP client runbook (authorized repository access required). This notice does not retire the package, verify registry availability, or claim a live customer journey.
