lightning-agent-tools

Lightning Network payments, node setup, and paid API access

Runs Lightning Network nodes, pays for web resources via L402 micropayments, and hosts paid API endpoints. Keeps private keys on a separate remote signer so the working machine never touches key material. Bakes scoped credentials, connects read-only node queries over encrypted tunnels, and automates full buyer-seller payment workflows.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQPage Schema

How to install Lightning Agent Tools?▼

Run `npx skills add lightninglabs/lightning-agent-tools --all -g -y` in your terminal to install all skills globally.

How to let software pay for things online?▼

This kit runs a Lightning node and uses the lnget client to automatically pay L402 invoices when a server returns an HTTP 402 response, with spending caps you control.

How to sell API access for micropayments?▼

The aperture skill runs an L402 reverse proxy in front of your backend that issues Lightning invoices and only proxies requests after payment.

Are private keys safe with this setup?▼

Yes. The default architecture keeps all keys on a separate remote signer machine, and the working node runs watch-only with scoped macaroon credentials.

Does it work with Claude Code and other MCP clients?▼

Yes. The included MCP server connects to your node via Lightning Node Connect with a pairing phrase and exposes 18 read-only query tools to any MCP-compatible client.
