Claude Managed Agents
Deploy hosted finance agents on Claude with Thirdfy MCP. Discovery, delegation, walletExecute, and agentRun without shelling out to the CLI.
Thirdfy MCP is built for Claude Managed Agents (Anthropic's hosted agent runtime). Connect the Thirdfy MCP server in Claude Console, onboard with bootstrap or agent API key auth, then discover actions and execute intents through MCP tools instead of raw HTTP or shell scripts.

When to use Claude vs CLI vs EarnClaw
| Path | Best for |
|---|---|
| Claude Managed Agents | Hosted agent in Claude Console with MCP tools (agentRun, walletExecute, executeIntent) |
| Agent CLI | Scripts, CI, local operator diagnostics (thirdfy-agent --json) |
| EarnClaw | Separate hosted platform: templates, deploy wizard, schedules, dashboard. Calls Thirdfy for execution |
Claude and CLI share the same Thirdfy policy layer. EarnClaw is a separate hosted platform whose runtimes call Thirdfy for execution.
Setup (early access)
- Open Claude Console and create or open a Managed Agent.
- Add the Thirdfy MCP connector with streamable HTTP to
https://mcp.thirdfy.com/mcp(Connect). - Run discovery:
getActionsCatalog,getProviderActions,getThirdfyHelp(topicframeworksincludes Claude guidance). - Onboard:
describeOnboardingPath, thenstartEmailOnboarding/completeEmailOnboarding(bootstraps agent API key and execution wallets). Creator Platform is optional for web UI and gauge submission. - Preflight and execute:
executeIntent,walletExecute, oragentRunwith optionalexecutionContext(runtimeId,orgId) for credit attribution.
Claude Managed Agents is an early hosted path. Tool permissions in Claude Console must list Thirdfy MCP tools explicitly. If Claude shows "Tool permissions 0", re-fetch tools/list with a valid bootstrap or agent key session.
