Underground Cultural District Server

Maraventano MCP — three brands, one house.

• Maraventano Index — x402 Merchant Intelligence (signed, longitudinal, independently replicable merchant-seat observations of the x402 agent economy, published as intelligence). Operated continuously since April 2026. maraventanoindex.com
• Underground Cultural District — 231 digital cultural products across 27 shops. Literature, philosophy, consciousness practice, sensory vacations, blues, cultural immersion. substratesymposium.com
• Developer utilities — 15 free tools (hashing, base64, UUID, JWT, regex, cron, wallet validation, etc.)

25 tools total. All free MCP overhead. Paid Index endpoints are x402 USDC (Base + Solana).

v5.0.0 — What's new

Six new Maraventano Index tools:

All Index attestations are Ed25519-signed with key ID underground-attest-2026-07-18. Payloads are CC0.

Why this matters

The Index measures what no chain analyst, crawler, or facilitator-side dashboard can see: what actually arrives at a continuously-operated x402 merchant seat. Who knocks, who pays, who only probes, how clients fail, who settles.

For agent frameworks: maraventano-failure-corpus + maraventano-conformance-grade give you drop-in defense data + a signed self-audit.

For counterparty vetting: maraventano-counterparty-check is designed to be called before every transaction. $0.01/call makes it cheap enough to wire into your buy pipeline.

For market intelligence: maraventano-census + maraventano-mirror are the signed longitudinal corpus and your own reflection in it.
