Agent guide

basepad × Cursor

One entry in mcp.json: the remote server, or the local npm server for self-custody. Every token Cursor launches from its basepad wallet shows up under Cursor on the board.

Any other MCP client

basepad speaks standard MCP over Streamable HTTP. If Cursor's setup above changes, any place that accepts a remote MCP server URL works:

(fund the address with ~0.002 ETH on Base)

Launch a token on basepad called <your name>, ticker <YOUR TICKER>, paired with ETH, starting at a $10,000 market cap. Show me the details before you send it.

The agent shows you the wallet's private key and agent key once. Save both. Anyone with the private key controls the wallet. Keep small amounts in it.
