GPU Forge – GPU Probe
x402
GPU Forge – GPU Probe is a paid API for AI agents from forge.parabellum.tech, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status down (last checked 2026-09-15).
Probes and returns real-time GPU hardware status (name, VRAM, utilization, temperature) via a machine-payable HTTP call at $0.01 USDC per request.

How this service works
Machine-payable GPU compute. Pay per call in USDC on Base or Polygon, no accounts, no API keys.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing the GPU's model name, total and used VRAM (in MB or GB), current utilization percentage, and temperature in Celsius — giving a real-time snapshot of the remote GPU's hardware state.
Example use cases
Pre-flight GPU availability check
“Before I kick off my model training job, can you probe the GPU Forge server to see which GPU is available, how much VRAM is free, and whether utilization is low enough to proceed?”
Thermal monitoring for long-running inference
“My inference job has been running for a while — can you probe the GPU Forge endpoint and report back the current GPU temperature and utilization so I know if it's overheating?”
Capacity check before batch workload
“I want to run a large batch of image generations but I'm worried the GPU might be maxed out — can you hit GPU Forge and tell me the current VRAM usage and utilization percentage before I start?”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://forge.parabellum.tech/v1/jobs/gpu.probeWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a lightweight, account-free, pay-per-probe way to inspect remote GPU hardware state in real time — especially useful for AI agents orchestrating compute workloads that need to check GPU availability, thermal headroom, or VRAM capacity before committing to an expensive job. Prefer this over cloud provider dashboards or SSH-based monitoring when you want a single machine-payable HTTP call with no signup or API key management.
Side effects
- Payment not received or rejected: returns 402 Payment Required
- Invalid request body (missing required fields): returns 400 Bad Request
- GPU host offline or unreachable: returns 503 or timeout
- Insufficient USDC balance on Base or Polygon: payment fails, call not executed
- Rate limiting if too many rapid calls: may return 429 Too Many Requests
