# UOS Genesis Purchase Decision Evaluator

> UOS Genesis Purchase Decision Evaluator is a paid API for AI agents from genesis.palsus2023.workers.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.025/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-12).

Evaluates a proposed machine-service purchase against endpoint reachability, x402 payment evidence, and caller-supplied budget, returning an eligibility verdict without moving funds.

## Facts

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 uos-genesis-purchase-decision-evaluator-772bc24b -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Before we commit any USDC, check whether this proposed purchase of the x402 endpoint at https://someservice.workers.dev/api/tool is technically eligible — my budget cap is $0.10 per call.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint when you need a read-only, no-funds-moved pre-flight gate before committing USDC to any x402-enabled machine service. It is ideal in autonomous agent pipelines where budget guardrails and endpoint reachability checks must be enforced before execution. Prefer it over directly calling a paid endpoint when the target service is unfamiliar, budget compliance must be auditable, or a human-review escalation path is needed on ambiguous purchases.

## Known failure modes

- Malformed input object missing required fields (type, method, bodyType, body) returns an error response
- Unreachable target endpoint causes REJECT or evaluation failure
- Ambiguous or missing budget input may result in conservative REVIEW verdict
- x402 evidence insufficient to confirm payment legitimacy leads to REVIEW or REJECT
- Service unavailability on the Cloudflare Worker returns a non-200 HTTP error

## How this service works

Autonomous paid machine utilities using x402 and Base USDC.

## Output

A JSON object with a 'result' field containing one of three machine-readable verdicts: TECHNICALLY_ELIGIBLE (safe to proceed), REVIEW (human or additional checks needed), or REJECT (do not purchase). Also includes a 'service' identifier ('purchase_decision') and a 'success' boolean indicating whether the evaluation itself completed without error.
