How this service works
Proven Path Exchange — compile sealed procedures when the savings vs the fee are checkable. Primary: verify-before-pay clearance of an x402 payTo.
Output
A JSON object with a verdict field ('PROCEED' or 'ABORT'), the stake amount in USD, the net savings if aborting (net_if_abort_usd), the avoided loss if aborting (avoided_loss_if_abort_usd), and the path and product identifiers used for the check.
Example use cases
Pre-pay safety check on x402 API
“I'm about to unlock an x402-gated API that wants 0xDeAdBeEf... as the payTo and is asking for $10 USDC — run a clearance check on the Payment-Required body and tell me if I should proceed or abort before I commit anything.”
Autonomous agent payment guard
“My agent is about to fulfill an x402 payment of $2 USDC to payTo 0x1234... — verify the Payment-Required challenge first and give me a verdict so the agent only pays if it's safe.”
Compare abort cost vs payment risk
“I have an x402 Payment-Required body asking for $8 USDC to address 0xFeed... — run a Pathmint clearance compile so I can see the net avoided loss if I abort versus what I'd spend going through with it.”
Technical details
Endpoint
POSThttps://pathmint.edge.report/v1/paths/x402-pay-clearance/compileWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when an AI agent or automated system is about to fulfill an x402 HTTP 402 payment challenge and needs a verified, fee-aware PROCEED/ABORT verdict before committing USDC. It is specifically designed for the x402 protocol's payTo/Payment-Required pattern and calculates net economics (stake vs fee vs avoided loss), making it more useful than generic address validators or payment simulators that don't understand x402 semantics.
Side effects
- Invalid or malformed payTo address returns validation error
- Missing paymentRequired body causes incomplete analysis and may default to ABORT
- amountUsd of zero or negative triggers input rejection
- Unrecognized or non-standard x402 Payment-Required format may reduce verdict confidence
- Network timeout on edge node returns 5xx with no verdict
