How this service works
Pay per call over x402. USDC on Base, no account, no API key. 28 government-sourced data products at $0.001–$0.05 per call, every response signed and provenance-chained.
Output
A JSON object containing an array of monthly CPI data rows (each with a payload and record ID), product metadata (slug and version), a provenance block (license ID, source URL, and observation timestamp), an Ed25519 cryptographic attestation signature, and a blockchain payment receipt reference confirming the x402 micropayment settlement.
Example use cases
Inflation trend analysis for a report
“Get me the US monthly CPI figures for 2022 — I need each month's value along with the provenance details so I can cite the original source in my economic report.”
Compliance audit with verified data
“Fetch the US Consumer Price Index monthly data for 2021 with cryptographic attestation so our compliance team can verify the data hasn't been tampered with.”
Automated macro data pipeline
“Every month I need to pull the latest year's US CPI data from Clink Forge and store it in our pipeline — make sure we get the payment receipt and the Ed25519 signature each time.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.clinkforge.com/v1/p/cpi-us-monthlyWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need US monthly CPI data with cryptographic provenance and verifiable attestation — for example in compliance, audit, or automated pipelines where tamper-evidence matters. It is ideal for AI agents that can pay per-call via x402 micropayments in USDC and need a machine-readable proof of data origin. Prefer it over raw BLS scraping when you want structured JSON output, a signed attestation, and a payment receipt bundled in a single response.
Side effects
- Missing or invalid 'year' query parameter returns a validation error
- Year out of available data range returns no rows or a 404-style error
- Insufficient USDC balance or failed x402 payment results in a 402 Payment Required response
- Malformed payment header causes authentication failure
- Network timeout if the API is under load
