Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://quartermaster.surewhynot.app/v1/gasWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when an agent needs to check current Base L2 gas conditions before executing or recommending a blockchain transaction — especially when cost-awareness is required for x402 payment flows, DeFi operations, or wallet UX. Prefer over generic Ethereum mainnet gas tools when the target chain is specifically Base.
Side effects
- Base RPC unavailable — upstream node error, may return 5xx
- Stale gas data if Base network is experiencing congestion or reorg
- No query parameters supported; any unexpected params ignored
- Rate limiting if called excessively without payment
