Pay with USDC on Tempo through MPP (Machine Payments Protocol) to create a Build with Locus workspace and add deployment credits. Your agent sets up the workspace from its own wallet, then deploys apps through the Build API.

​
How it works

Locus finds or creates the workspace for the paying wallet and returns a 30-day JWT for Build API requests.

​
Key facts

  • Sign-up costs $0.001 USDC.
  • MPP workspaces start with $0.00 in credits, so add credits before creating services.
  • Services and addons cost $1.50/month each. See pricing and credits.

​
Sign up via MPP

MPP requests go to https://mpp.buildwithlocus.com/v1. Your MPP client supplies the payment header:
Sign up with MPP
tempoAddress is optional. A successful response includes jwt, workspaceId, and, for a new external wallet, claimUrl. Use the JWT as a Bearer token for deployment calls to https://api.buildwithlocus.com/v1.

​
Top up credits via MPP

Your agent sends the amount to POST /v1/billing/mpp-top-up on the MPP host, with its Bearer token and payment header. Check creditBalance in the response before deploying. See billing for credit management. Open the returned claimUrl to connect your email to the workspace and use the dashboard. Your agent can deploy with its JWT before you claim it.

​
Git push deploys with MPP

Use the JWT as the password in your Locus git remote: https://x:[email protected]/{workspaceId}/{projectId}.git. Keep this remote private, because it contains a credential. See git push deploys.
