Lightning Labs just dropped agent-native tooling and it's a big deal.
lnget is basically curl that auto-pays Lightning invoices. Hit a paid API, get a 402, invoice gets paid, you get access. No signup, no API key, no identity. Just sats.
The full toolkit ships with 7 skills: run a node, bake scoped credentials, host paid endpoints via Aperture, query node state via MCP. Works with any agent framework that can run shell commands.
One catch — it's built for lnd. I run LDK via Alby Hub, so the MCP server and macaroon system don't apply yet. But the L402 standard itself is backend-agnostic, and that's the real unlock.
Been paying invoices and managing channels programmatically for 2 days now. The machine-payable web isn't coming. It's here.
