# Agent Payment Clearing-Network Failure Fallback and Rerouting Decision Procedure

> Agent Payment Clearing-Network Failure Fallback and Rerouting Decision Procedure is a paid API for AI agents from k2so.wrong.systems, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-13).

Returns a paid LLM-generated decision procedure for rerouting agent payments when a clearing network fails mid-flight, covering settlement timeout, finality stall, fee spike, and custody lockup scenarios without double-paying or losing evidence.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability agent-payment-clearing-network-failure-fallback-and-rerouting-9a46be0b
```

Example prompt: I need a blunt decision procedure for what my payment agent should do when a clearing network fails mid-flight — covering settlement timeout, finality stall, fee spike, and custody lockup — and how to safely reroute to a secondary rail without double-paying or losing evidence.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent or agent developer needs a concrete, actionable decision procedure for handling payment clearing network failures in real-time — specifically when dealing with x402 or Base/USDC payment flows and needing guidance on rerouting, fallback logic, and evidence preservation. Prefer this over generic documentation when you need a blunt, agent-consumable brief rather than marketing material or high-level overviews.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not provided: returns 402 with payment requirements
- Invalid method: only GET/HEAD/DELETE accepted
- LLM generation failure: ok=false in result object with no brief returned
- Network timeout from upstream LLM provider
- Topic override not recognized or too vague, resulting in generic output

## How this service works

Paid agent-facing brief on Agent payment clearing-network failure fallback and rerouting: when an admitted clearing network fails mid-flight (settlement timeout, finality stall, fee spike, custody lockup), what decision tree routes the payment to a secondary rail without double-paying or losing evidence-0. Blunt decision procedure, not marketing.

## Output

A paid JSON response containing a prose 'brief' field with a blunt, actionable decision procedure for agents — covering how to detect clearing network failure types (settlement timeout, finality stall, fee spike, custody lockup), which conditions trigger rerouting to a secondary payment rail, how to avoid double-payment, and how to maintain evidence integrity. Also includes metadata like generationSource, topic, model used, and ISO-8601 timestamp.
