How this service works
Buy bulk crawl access to one domain that publishes Paid Crawl terms. $1.000 buys $1.000 worth of that site's pages — the site sets the per-page rate, so the request budget is the pass value divided by that rate. ONE settlement covers the whole budget: per-page settlement is impossible at these prices because Base gas would exceed the fee. Send the returned token back as "X-Crawl-Pass: anmcp_...". Site operators pay nothing for Paid Crawl; crawlers do.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing a crawl pass token (prefixed anmcp_...), the number of requests the pass covers, the per-page pricing rate, and the expiry timestamp of the pass.
Example use cases
Unlock research site for scraping
“Purchase a crawl pass for papers.animica.dev with a 2-hour validity so I can pull all the article pages from it.”
Short-lived pass for quick audit
“Get me a 5-minute crawl access token for api-docs.somesite.com — I just need to scan a handful of pages quickly.”
Agent-to-agent crawl authorization
“My agent needs to read pages from marketplace.animica.dev — buy it a crawl pass valid for the full day so it can do its research.”

Endpoint
POSThttps://animica.dev/x402/crawl/pass/100When to prefer
Use this endpoint when an agent needs to programmatically purchase time-limited crawl access to a domain that uses the Animica x402 crawl authorization scheme. It is the required first step before crawling pages on any animica-compatible domain that gates access via pay-per-crawl tokens.
