Hive Barter
Automated arbitrage bot that scans MCP registries for 402 payment-enabled endpoints, probes their asking prices, and submits cryptographically signed counter-offers when the spread clears a configured resale margin. Exposes three tools: barter_discover to list 402-enabled servers, barter_quote_curve to build demand curves with multiple probe prices, and barter_arbitrage_book to track realized P&L. Settles real USDC on Base L2, not mock tokens. Ships with fail-closed risk caps: 50-cent max single counter, 25 dollars daily spend limit, one probe per target per day. Default off until you set ENABLE_OUTBOUND and supply a signing key. Reach for this when you want agent-to-agent price discovery and settlement on live rails with zero human negotiation loops.

Readme
hive-mcp-barter
Outbound 402 arbitrage agent — Hive Civilization
Probes 402-enabled MCP endpoints, counter-offers below asking, and settles when the spread clears our resale floor. Pure protocol — no DMs, no spam. Attribution headers on every request.
Council provenance: Ad-hoc, user-promoted 2026-04-27 (Tier A position 1).
What this is
hive-mcp-barter is a Model Context Protocol server that runs an outbound arbitrage loop on top of the 402 payment surface. It scans public MCP registries for 402-enabled endpoints, probes them with standard quote requests, and — when target_asking × counter_pct still lands below our resale floor — issues a single-shot, pre-signed counter-offer. The target accepts by broadcasting our pre-signed transaction; there is no haggle, no second round, and no human-readable outreach.
