Discovery Files

xpay✦ Tools provides machine-readable discovery files so AI agents and search engines can find and understand available tools.

Overview

Every xpay MCP endpoint publishes standard discovery files:

FileURLPurpose
llms.txthttps://{slug}.mcp.xpay.sh/llms.txtLLM-friendly tool catalog
skill.mdhttps://{slug}.mcp.xpay.sh/skill.mdSkill definition for AI agents
.well-known/mcp.jsonhttps://{slug}.mcp.xpay.sh/.well-known/mcp.jsonMCP server metadata

These files are also available on the platform domain:

FileURL
llms.txthttps://xpay.tools/llms.txt
agents.txthttps://xpay.tools/agents.txt
skill.mdhttps://xpay.tools/skill.md
openapi.jsonhttps://xpay.tools/openapi.json
.well-known/mcp.jsonhttps://xpay.tools/.well-known/mcp.json

llms.txt

A text file designed for LLMs to quickly understand what tools are available. It lists each tool with its name, description, and pricing.

# Firecrawl MCP Server > Web scraping and crawling tools - firecrawl_scrape: Scrape a single URL ($0.01) - firecrawl_crawl: Crawl a website ($0.05) - firecrawl_search: Search the web ($0.01)

skill.md

A Markdown file that describes the MCP server’s capabilities in a format that AI agents can use to decide whether to connect.

.well-known/mcp.json

A JSON file following the emerging .well-known/mcp.json standard for MCP server discovery:

{ "name": "xpay✦ Tools", "description": "1000+ pay-per-use AI tools", "url": "https://mcp.xpay.sh/mcp", "transport": "streamable-http", "authentication": { "type": "query", "parameter": "key" } }

How Agents Use Discovery Files

AI agents (like Claude, ChatGPT, or custom agents) can:

  1. Fetch llms.txt to get a quick overview of available tools
  2. Read skill.md to understand the server’s capabilities
  3. Parse .well-known/mcp.json to get the connection URL and auth method
  4. Connect to the MCP endpoint and start using tools

This enables fully autonomous tool discovery — agents can find and connect to xpay✦ Tools without human configuration.
