# AgentProof Timestamp Evidence

> AgentProof Timestamp Evidence is a paid API for AI agents from agentproof.hatchable.site, paid per call via x402, $0.05/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-11).

Creates a cryptographic timestamp and integrity receipt for a given piece of content or transaction data, serving as machine-paid tamper-evident proof.

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 agentproof-timestamp-evidence-5b2afdc2 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Create a tamper-evident timestamp receipt for this document hash — I need cryptographic proof it existed right now and hasn't been altered, including an integrity SHA-256 and a unique receipt ID I can store for audits.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when an AI agent needs a cryptographically verifiable, machine-paid proof that specific content or transaction data existed at a precise point in time. It is preferable over general logging when tamper-evidence, auditability, and autonomous machine-to-machine trust are required. Ideal for compliance-sensitive autonomous workflows where a UUID-backed integrity receipt needs to be stored or referenced later.

## Known failure modes

- Payment not received or insufficient USDC — returns 402 Payment Required
- Malformed or missing content payload — returns 400 Bad Request
- Service temporarily unavailable — returns 503
- Receipt generation failure — ok:false with error detail
- Hash mismatch if content was corrupted in transit

## How this service works

AgentProof publishes Agent Transaction Passport™ and provides machine-paid evidence, provenance receipts, source comparison and change monitoring for autonomous transactions.

## Output

Returns a JSON object confirming success, the tool name ('timestamp_evidence'), a receipt object containing a unique UUID and a SHA-256 integrity hash of the submitted content, and the service name. This acts as a verifiable, machine-paid proof-of-existence record.
