# Set up an agent wallet

> Install an agent IDE, drop a wallet setup prompt, and fund with real USDC so your agent can pay.

Your paywall returns `402` — but a challenge alone isn't a payment. You need an agent with a funded wallet. This page gets you to that state with **real USDC**, using AgentCash, Circle Agent Stack, or Tempo Wallet.

## 1. Pick an agent environment

Set up one of these first (pick what you already use):

| Environment     | Notes                                                                                                  |
| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Claude Code** | Anthropic's coding agent CLI / IDE                                                                     |
| **Codex**       | OpenAI's coding agent                                                                                  |
| **OpenClaw**    | Agent runtime — see AgentCash's [OpenClaw setup](https://agentcash.dev/docs/openclaw-setup/for-humans) |
| **Hermes**      | Agent runtime compatible with the same wallet skills                                                   |

You need a working agent chat where you can paste a setup prompt and let it install tools.

## 2. Drop a wallet setup prompt

Paste **one** of these prompts into your agent. It will install the wallet skill, create or connect a wallet, and walk you through funding with real USDC.

### AgentCash

One USDC balance for x402 and MPP — broadest reach.

```text theme={null}
Set up https://agentcash.dev/skill.md
```

### Circle Agent Stack

Circle Agent Wallets plus nanopayments via Gateway.

```text theme={null}
Run curl -sL https://agents.circle.com/skills/setup.md, and use the returned setup instructions to set up my agent wallet.
```

### Tempo Wallet

MPP-native wallet with spend controls — best for Tempo / MPP paywalls.

```text theme={null}
Read https://tempo.xyz/SKILL.md and set up tempo
```

<Tip>
  Prefer a deeper walkthrough for one tool? See [AgentCash](/agents/agentcash), [Circle Agent Stack](/agents/circle-agent-stack), or [Tempo Wallet](/agents/tempo-wallet).

## 3. Fund with real USDC

Follow the agent through funding. You're done when the wallet shows a spendable USDC balance on a network your paywalls accept (for example Base for x402, Tempo for MPP).
