# QuickNode JSON-RPC Proxy — Tempo Mainnet

> QuickNode JSON-RPC Proxy — Tempo Mainnet is a paid API for AI agents from x402.quicknode.com, paid per call via x402, $10/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-15).

Proxies JSON-RPC calls to the Tempo mainnet blockchain via QuickNode's infrastructure

## Facts

- Endpoint: POST https://x402.quicknode.com/tempo-mainnet/
- Price: $10/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: unknown
- Last checked: 2026-09-15

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 quicknode-52111c35 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Can you query the current block number on the Tempo mainnet using eth_blockNumber?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to interact specifically with the Tempo mainnet blockchain via standard JSON-RPC calls. Prefer this over generic RPC providers when you need QuickNode's reliable infrastructure for Tempo mainnet specifically, and you are willing to pay per-call via x402 micropayment protocol.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid JSON-RPC method returns error object with method not found
- Malformed params array causes invalid params error
- Payment not attached or insufficient USDC returns 402 Payment Required
- Network congestion or node unavailability returns 503 or timeout
- Unsupported method for Tempo chain returns error
