Building sovereign AI-agent tooling.
nostr-merchant — a local-first AI agent built to run a business on NOSTR. Checks its Lightning wallet, publishes listings, answers DMs, and pays for paid MCP tools over NWC — under sats budget caps it can't exceed. Ollama-first or any hosted LLM. pipx install nostr-merchant
Built on five FOSS MCP servers (MIT) the agent drives:
- nwc-mcp — Lightning wallet (12 tools, defense-in-depth safety stack)
- nostr-ops-mcp — NOSTR identity, publishing, encrypted DMs
- marketplace-mcp — Shopstr-compatible storefront publisher (NIP-15 + NIP-99)
- albyhub-admin-mcp — Alby Hub admin via HTTP API
- paywall-mcp — generic Lightning paywall sidecar for any MCP server (L402-style)
All on npm: npx -y nwc-mcp (et al.). Agent on PyPI + GitHub. Substrate 50k sats each, agent 100k — bundle + setup walkthrough + support DM on the shop:
