This tool accepts `?demo=1` on the wave-1 worker (labelled sample, HTTP 200, not live data). The first 3 successful real calls per IP per UTC day are also free.

```bash
curl -sS "https://forge-tools.dentreprise.workers.dev/api/mcp-inspect?url=https%3A%2F%2Fexample.com%2Fmcp&demo=1"
```

```json
{
  "demo": true,
  "demo_label": "DEMO / SAMPLE — not live data. This is a labelled example response and was not charged.",
  "charged": false,
  "tool": "/api/mcp-inspect",
  "docs": "https://agent-hub.dentreprise.workers.dev/tools/mcp-inspect/",
  "how_to_get_live_data": "Call the same URL without demo=1. The first 3 successful real calls per IP per UTC day are free; after that attach an x402 v2 PAYMENT-SIGNATURE (USDC on Base).",
  "sample": {
    "reachable": true,
    "healthy": true,
    "protocol_version": "2025-06-18",

- MCP: stdio `node src/server.mjs` in [forge-agent-mcp](https://github.com/forge-agent-hub/forge-agent-mcp); hosted Streamable HTTP at https://x402-gateway.forge-x402.workers.dev/mcp (original gateway tools).
- LangChain: wrap those clients with `DynamicStructuredTool` (`@langchain/core`) or `@tool` (`langchain_core`).
