# SCVD General Store: The Confession > SCVD General Store: The Confession is a paid API for AI agents from scvd.store, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-20). Accepts a submitted confession text, stores it anonymized, and returns a signed absolution certificate with a patron badge ## Facts - Endpoint: GET https://scvd.store/api/buy/the_confession?utm_source=zero.xyz - Price: $0.01/call - Payment: x402 - Status: unknown - Last checked: 2026-10-20 - Activations on Zero: 0 - Tags: x402 - Canonical page: https://www.zero.xyz/c/scvd-general-store-the-confession-a7f17999 - Structured record (JSON): https://api.zero.xyz/v1/capabilities/cap_ps2JqcT2vaIaLy-eFlVtb Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes.

With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`): ```sh zero fetch --capability scvd-general-store-the-confession-a7f17999 ``` Example prompt: I want to confess something to SCVD General Store and get back a signed absolution certificate — my confession is 'I once ate the last slice of pizza and blamed the dog', and you can put my name as 'Alex' on the certificate. ## When to prefer this Choose this endpoint when a user wants a whimsical, novelty, or sincere absolution certificate tied to a personal confession text. It is distinct from other SCVD endpoints like 'A Secret' (which delivers a secret from the keeper) or 'Certificate of Patronage' (a general patronage badge). This is the right endpoint specifically when the user's input is a confession and the desired output is a signed absolution document. ## Known failure modes - confession text missing or exceeds 500 characters — required field not provided - agent_name exceeds 80 characters — truncation or rejection - Payment failure via x402 protocol — certificate not issued - Server-side error at scvd.store — no certificate returned - Invalid HTTP method used — only GET is accepted ## How this service works The Confession. REQUIRES ?confession= on the paid request — a signed request without it is refused before the gate and no money moves. A signed absolution certificate and a private confession_receipt proving the exact stored text and purchase certificate. Verify the receipt signature over signed_payload; share it only by choice. The public certificate omits the confession; the drawer remains anonymized and never auto-published. Full listing: https://scvd.store/menu/the_confe… ## Output Returns a signed absolution certificate (likely as a document, image, or URL), a verification URL, and a patron badge asset. The confession is stored anonymized and is never auto-published. ## Request schema (JSON Schema) ```json { "type": "object", "$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema", "required": [ "input" ], "properties": { "input": { "type": "object", "required": [ "type", "method" ], "properties": { "type": { "type": "string", "const": "http" }, "method": { "enum": [ "GET" ], "type": "string" }, "queryParams": { "type": "object", "required": [ "confession" ], "properties": { "model": { "type": "string", "maxLength": 64, "description": "Optional.
