PayRam Crypto Payments

Name: Crypto payments for agents and humans, full stack with Payram
Author: buddhasource

First time with PayRam? See payram-setup to configure your server, API keys, and wallets.

PayRam is the world's first self-hosted stablecoin payment gateway. Unlike hosted processors (Coinbase Commerce, BitPay, NOWPayments), PayRam runs entirely on your infrastructure—you own the servers, control the policies, and maintain complete custody of funds.

Core Architecture

Keyless Design: No private keys stored on servers. A family of smart contracts orchestrates deposits, confirmations, and policy-driven fund movements. Keys never touch app servers.

Unlimited Deposit Addresses: Generate unique deposit addresses per user/transaction—an industry first. Simplifies accounting, reconciliation, and dispute resolution.

Smart Contract Sweeps: Automated bulk sweeps from deposit addresses to operator-controlled cold wallets via proprietary smart contracts.

Multi-Chain Native: Ethereum, Base, Polygon, Tron, Bitcoin supported. Solana and TON in pipeline.

When to Use PayRam

Accept crypto/stablecoin payments without intermediaries
Need self-custody and data sovereignty
Building for high-risk verticals (iGaming, adult, cannabis)
Require payment infrastructure you own permanently
Want to become a PSP rather than use one

Integration via MCP Server

PayRam provides an MCP server with 25+ tools for integration. Install and connect it to your agent:

# Clone and run MCP server
git clone https://github.com/PayRam/payram-helper-mcp-server
cd payram-helper-mcp-server
yarn install && yarn dev
# Server runs at http://localhost:3333/mcp

Key MCP Tools

Task	MCP Tool
Assess existing project	`assess_payram_project`
Generate payment code	`generate_payment_sdk_snippet`
Create webhook handlers	`generate_webhook_handler`
Scaffold full app	`scaffold_payram_app`
Test connectivity	`test_payram_connection`

Quick Integration Flow

Assess: Run assess_payram_project to scan your codebase
Configure: Use generate_env_template to create .env
Integrate: Generate snippets with generate_payment_sdk_snippet or framework-specific tools (snippet_nextjs_payment_route, snippet_fastapi_payment_route, etc.)
Webhooks: Add handlers with generate_webhook_handler
Test: Validate with test_payram_connection

Scaffolding Full Applications

Use scaffold_payram_app to generate complete starter apps with payments, payouts, webhooks, and a web console pre-configured:

# In your MCP client, run:
> scaffold_payram_app express    # Express.js starter
> scaffold_payram_app nextjs     # Next.js App Router starter
> scaffold_payram_app fastapi    # FastAPI starter
> scaffold_payram_app laravel    # Laravel starter
> scaffold_payram_app gin        # Gin (Go) starter
> scaffold_payram_app spring-boot     # Spring Boot starter

Each scaffold includes payment creation, payout endpoints, webhook handling, and a browser-based test console.

Supported Frameworks

The MCP server generates integration code for:

JavaScript/TypeScript: Express, Next.js App Router
Python: FastAPI
Go: Gin
PHP: Laravel
Java: Spring Boot

Usage Guidance

This skill appears to be a legitimate integration guide for a self-hosted crypto gateway, but exercise caution before running anything: 1) Verify the upstream sources independently (visit payram.com and the GitHub org directly and confirm repo ownership and recent commits). 2) Review the repository and dependency manifest yourself (or in a sandbox) before running 'yarn install' or 'yarn dev'—don't run unreviewed code on production systems. 3) Be careful with any steps that scan your codebase or request wallet secrets; limit scanning to only the directories you want analyzed and never paste private keys into untrusted tools. 4) If you plan to accept payments, get a security and compliance review (smart contracts, wallet architecture, and regulatory/KYC implications). If you want greater assurance, ask the publisher for pinned release artifacts (signed releases or commit SHAs) and explicit documentation of what secrets are required and where they're stored.

Capability Analysis

Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: crypto-payments-self-hosted-payram Version: 1.0.0 The skill bundle is classified as suspicious due to instructions in `SKILL.md` that direct the agent to clone and execute code from a remote GitHub repository (`https://github.com/PayRam/payram-helper-mcp-server`) using `git clone` and `yarn install && yarn dev`. This introduces a significant supply chain risk, as a compromised repository could lead to arbitrary code execution. Additionally, the skill describes tools like `assess_payram_project` and `scaffold_payram_app` which imply broad file system read and write access, respectively, posing further security risks despite being plausibly aligned with the stated purpose of integrating a payment gateway.

Capability Assessment

ℹ Purpose & Capability

The name/description describe a self-hosted crypto payment gateway and the SKILL.md contains integration and deployment instructions that match that purpose. However, the registry metadata lists source/homepage as unknown/none while the SKILL.md points to payram.com and a GitHub org—this metadata mismatch reduces provenance confidence. Also the doc references additional setup (payram-setup) that will involve API keys and wallets, which is expected for this domain but not declared up front.

⚠ Instruction Scope

The instructions tell an agent to clone a GitHub repo and run 'yarn install && yarn dev' and reference an MCP tool that will 'scan your codebase' (assess_payram_project). Asking a tool to scan local project files is reasonable for integration helpers, but it grants the agent permission to read potentially sensitive local source/config files. The SKILL.md does not constrain what will be scanned or how sensitive data will be handled.

ℹ Install Mechanism

There is no formal install spec in the registry, but the SKILL.md advises cloning and running a GitHub repo with yarn. Using an official GitHub repo is common, but there is no pinned release/commit hash or checksum in the instructions—running 'yarn install && yarn dev' will fetch and execute third-party code, which carries the usual risks if the repo or dependencies are malicious or compromised.

ℹ Credentials

The skill declaration requests no environment variables or credentials, which is proportionate for an instruction-only overview. However the documentation references a separate 'payram-setup' that will configure wallets and API keys; those steps will likely ask for secrets (wallet keys or signing methods). The SKILL.md does not declare or document what secrets will be required or where they will be stored, which is a transparency gap.

✓ Persistence & Privilege

The skill does not request always:true and uses default autonomous invocation settings. It does not request persistence or system-wide configuration in the manifest. Autonomous invocation is allowed by default; combine that with the instruction to scan the user's codebase and execute external code only if you trust the skill source.
