{
  "mcpServers": {
    "clawvault": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["clawvault-mcp-server"],
      "env": {

Available Tools

Once connected, Claude has access to these tools:

request_payment

Request a payment through ClawVault. The payment will be evaluated against your security rules.

Amount: "10.00"
Token: "USDC"
Recipient: "0x..."
Chain: "base"
Reason: "API credits" (optional)

check_limits

Check if a payment would be allowed before making it. Returns whether it would auto-approve or need manual approval.

get_payment_status

Check the status of a pending payment by ID.

list_transactions

List recent payment transactions with pagination.

get_vault

Get vault status including wallet address, balances, and current spending limits.

freeze_agent

Emergency freeze an agent to block all its payment requests.

How It Works

1. You ask Claude to pay for something
2. Claude uses request_payment tool
3. ClawVault checks your rules:
   • Within rules → auto-approved, payment executes
   • Outside rules → pending, you get a Telegram/dashboard notification
4. You approve or deny from Telegram or the web dashboard
5. Claude gets the result
