How this service works
Network, docs, image, web, and dev utility tools paid per call via x402. No signup, no API keys, no subscriptions — just USDC on Base.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing the original host and an array of strings representing each hop (router/node) along the traceroute path from origin to destination.
Example use cases
Diagnosing slow API response times
“Something seems off with our connection to api.stripe.com — can you traceroute it and show me where the latency is being introduced in the path?”
Verifying network path to a server
“I need to see the full network route from here to 8.8.8.8 — run a traceroute and list every hop.”
Investigating routing anomalies
“We suspect traffic to our VPN endpoint at vpn.mycompany.com is taking an unusual route — can you trace it and show all intermediate hops?”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://api.geekvault.dev/net-tools/v1/traceroute?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a quick, no-setup traceroute without installing OS-level tools or managing API keys. Ideal for AI agents doing network diagnostics, infrastructure monitoring, or debugging routing issues in automated workflows, especially when paying per-call via USDC on Base is acceptable over a subscription.
Side effects
- Host not found or unresolvable — empty or error response
- Host unreachable or all hops timed out — partial hop list with asterisks or empty hops
- Network timeout if traceroute takes too long — incomplete results
- Invalid host input — likely 400 or error response
- Payment failure via x402 — 402 response before execution
