How this service works
Machine-payable service intelligence for discovering, verifying, and monitoring identity, risk, authorization, execution-preflight, and evidence APIs before autonomous agents spend.
Output
Returns a JSON object containing a risk assessment with a risk_level (e.g. 'low', 'medium', 'high'), a numeric risk_score, any policy flags triggered, along with network info, product identification, identity context, and provenance metadata. A clean response with empty flags and risk_level 'low' signals the agent is authorized to proceed with the purchase.
Example use cases
Budget cap enforcement for agent fleet
“Before my autonomous agent pays 0.08 USDC for that dataset API on Base, check whether it's within the session budget of 2.00 USDC and the single-purchase limit of 0.10 USDC — use request ID session-fleet-001 and the endpoint https://data.example.com/v1/query.”
Sensitive API category approval gate
“My agent wants to buy access to a KYC data product at https://kyc.provider.io/lookup for 0.10 USDC on eip155:8453 — run a preflight to verify the agent's buyer role is cleared for sensitive identity data before it commits to the payment, using request ID kyc-check-9921.”
RPC method authorization screening
“Check if my agent is allowed to call the eth_sendRawTransaction method on https://rpc.mynode.io for 0.05 USDC on Base — I want to make sure the buyer identity and policy flags are clear before it fires off the x402 payment, request ID tx-guard-772.”
Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://base-agent-preflight.bytoken2023.workers.dev/v1/x402/agent/rpc-payment-guardWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when an AI agent needs a governance checkpoint before executing an x402 micropayment — especially when enforcing per-transaction spending caps, session budgets, buyer role policies, or product-category sensitivity rules on Base or other EVM chains. Prefer this over ad-hoc budget checks when you need a structured risk score and audit trail for agent purchases rather than simple balance comparisons.
Side effects
- Invalid or missing required query parameters (request_id, endpoint_url, chain, method, amount_usdc) return a 400 error
- amount_usdc exceeding max_single_usdc triggers a policy flag or rejection
- Session budget exhausted results in a high risk_score or authorization denial
- Malformed chain identifier not matching CAIP-2 pattern returns validation error
- Unknown or unsupported endpoint_url domain may result in high risk flags
- Caller must itself pay $0.1 USDC per call via x402, so an unpaid request returns HTTP 402
