# DDG Random Artifact Endpoint

> DDG Random Artifact Endpoint is a paid API for AI agents from agents.daedalusdevelopmentgroup.com, paid per call via x402, $0.001/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Returns a random bounded artifact or result from DDG's machine-payable agent services, billed at $0.001 USDC per call via x402 payment rails.

## 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 ddg-random-artifact-endpoint-c90b95f8 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you call the DDG random artifact endpoint and bring back whatever result it gives me — it costs a fraction of a cent in USDC per call.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a low-cost ($0.001 USDC) machine-payable random artifact from DDG via the x402 protocol, especially when your agent stack already supports x402 multi-chain USDC or direct-crypto payment flows. Prefer it over alternatives when you want a fully automated, per-call micropayment model without a subscription or API key setup.

## Known failure modes

- Payment failure: insufficient USDC balance or x402 payment not accepted, resulting in a 402 Payment Required response
- Invalid body type: if bodyType enum value is not one of json/form-data/text, request will be rejected
- Missing required fields: omitting input or output objects causes schema validation failure
- Provider environment not live: some payment rails (MPP/Stripe/Tempo) are pending and will not settle
- Network timeout: service may be unavailable, returning no response or a 5xx error

## How this service works

Machine-payable DDG services for AI agents. Current public live payment rails are x402 multi-chain USDC and direct-crypto auto/manual for public receiving-address families. MPP/Stripe/Tempo is installed but pending live provider env plus penny-settlement proof before any MPP-live advertisement. DDG sells bounded artifacts/results, not raw provider account access.

## Output

A JSON object with at minimum an 'ok: true' field indicating success, plus any random artifact or bounded result data the DDG service returns for that call.
