# is-ip-github-watch

> is-ip-github-watch is a paid API for AI agents from ip.intel.rallylive.ca, paid per call via x402, $0.02/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-13).

Monitors whether an IPv4 address belongs to GitHub's network and alerts when that status changes between calls.

## Facts

- Price: $0.02/call

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## 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 is-ip-github-watch-8237a42c
```

Example prompt: Keep an eye on 140.82.121.4 and let me know if it ever stops being a GitHub IP — compare with the last check and tell me what changed.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need to detect changes in GitHub IP affiliation over time rather than just a one-time check. It is ideal for scheduled monitoring workflows, security alerting pipelines, or compliance checks where knowing that the status changed (and what it was before) is as important as the current value. Prefer it over a plain is-ip-github check when you want built-in change diffing without managing state yourself.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or malformed IPv4 address returns an error
- No previous result stored for the IP (first call) means changed will be false or null with no before value
- IP lookup via Team Cymru DNS fails due to DNS timeout or unavailability
- Payment not provided or insufficient USDC balance results in 402 Payment Required
- Rate limiting if too many rapid successive calls for the same IP

## How this service works

Change watch for is ip github: runs the check, compares it with the result from your previous call for the same ip (kept 90 days) and returns the current answer, changed true/false, the fields that changed with before/after values, and when it was last seen. Schedule it to be alerted when this changes. $0.02 per check.

## Output

Returns the current is-GitHub boolean result, a changed true/false flag indicating whether the result differs from the previous call for that IP, a list of fields that changed with their before and after values, and a last-seen timestamp. Results for each IP are retained for 90 days for comparison.
