How this service works
Use when an agent needs oblique gateway. Returns Capped observer-backed gateway over five allowlisted proven sellers; pays selected upstream from a small float, adds a transparent 10% margin, and returns payment reference, delivery and gateway receipt. $0.001187.
Output
A JSON object containing: the selected seller's ID and name with observed activity notes, a delivery payload with top seller results as of a given date, a gateway receipt showing charged amount, receipt ID, margin percent and atomic values, upstream cost, and an upstream payment reference with amount and float cap details.
Example use cases
Routing AI service discovery task
“I need to find current AI routing services — use the Oblique observer-backed gateway to pick a verified seller for that task, pay them through the float, and show me the delivery and the receipt with the margin breakdown.”
Delegating data enrichment to vetted seller
“Can you send this task to the Oblique gateway: 'enrich a list of company names with founding year and sector'? Pick the best allowlisted seller, pay them automatically, and return what they deliver along with the payment reference.”
Automating agent-to-seller payment flow
“I want to test the Oblique Markets gateway with the task 'summarize recent Base chain activity' — route it to one of the five proven sellers, handle the micropayment from the float, and give me the gateway receipt so I can see exactly what the upstream cost and 10% margin came to.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://api.oblique.markets/api/v1/paid/oblique-gatewayWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a single managed call that both selects a verified seller from a curated allowlist and handles micropayment in one step, especially when you want full transparency on the margin and a receipt for the transaction. Prefer this over raw x402 endpoints when you want observer-backed seller vetting, automatic float-based payment, and a unified delivery-plus-receipt response without managing payment flows yourself.
Side effects
- Task string does not match any allowlisted seller's domain — seller selection fails
- Float cap exceeded — upstream payment cannot be made
- Upstream seller is unavailable or times out — no delivery returned
- Malformed or empty task string — request rejected
- Selected seller returns an error — delivery payload is empty or missing
