# Vibes-Coded Agent State Guard

> Vibes-Coded Agent State Guard is a paid API for AI agents from vibes-coded.com, paid per call via x402, $0.1/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-14).

Validates AI agent state before executing an action by checking retry budget, memory coherence, and pending actions, returning a risk score and proceed/halt recommendation.

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 vibes-coded-agent-state-guard-815dc481 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Before I make this API call, run a state guard check on my agent — make sure the retry budget is okay, memory is coherent, and there are no pending actions blocking me, then tell me if it's safe to proceed.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint as a pre-flight check before any high-stakes agent action — especially before payments, external API calls, or irreversible operations. Prefer it over custom state-checking logic when you need a structured risk score with memory coherence and retry budget analysis in a single call. Particularly useful in long-running agentic loops where state drift and retry exhaustion are real risks.

## Known failure modes

- HTTP 402 if USDC payment not provided or insufficient — agent must implement x402 payment flow before retrying
- Malformed or missing agent state payload returns validation error
- Ambiguous or incomplete state data may result in conservative 'halt' recommendation even when agent is healthy
- Network timeout if agent state payload is very large

## How this service works

Pay-per-call JSON for AI agents: skill search, listing optimization, install plans, productization, and artifact risk scoring. HTTP 402 → USDC. Full skill marketplace on-site.

## Output

Returns a JSON object with a boolean ok field, a risk level string (e.g. 'low'), a checks object containing retry_budget status, memory_coherent boolean, and no_pending_action boolean, a state_ok boolean, and a human-readable recommendation string such as 'proceed' or 'halt'.
