# x402lint Directory Changes Feed

> x402lint Directory Changes Feed is a paid API for AI agents from api.x402lint.dev, paid per call via x402, $0.03/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-18).

Returns incremental changes to the x402lint graded directory since a given timestamp, including new listings, grade changes, and re-scans.

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 x402lint-directory-changes-feed-731746e8
```

Example prompt: Pull all the x402lint directory changes since 2025-05-01T00:00:00Z and show me which origins got new listings or had their grade change — limit the results to 500 entries.

## When to prefer this

Choose this endpoint over the full directory export ($0.10) when you already have a baseline snapshot and only need incremental updates. It is ideal for polling loops, cache-refresh jobs, and change-monitoring agents that need to stay current without paying for the full dataset on every run. Use it instead of the per-origin rescan endpoint when you want a broad view of what changed across all listings rather than forcing a fresh scan of one specific origin.

## Known failure modes

- 400 Bad Request if 'since' is missing or not a valid ISO 8601 timestamp — no charge incurred
- 400 Bad Request if 'limit' is out of range or malformed — no charge incurred
- Empty result set if no changes occurred after the given timestamp
- Payment failure if USDC balance is insufficient for the $0.03 per-call fee
- Rate limiting or 5xx errors under high load

## How this service works

Paid ($0.03). Everything that changed in the graded directory since a timestamp: newly listed origins (changeType "new"), grade changes ("grade_changed", with previousGrade/previousScore), and plain re-scans ("rescanned"). Poll this to keep a local copy of the directory fresh without re-buying the full export. An invalid since/limit is an uncharged 400.

## Output

A paginated list of change events, each containing the origin, changeType (new, grade_changed, or rescanned), current grade/score, and for grade_changed events the previousGrade and previousScore. Returns up to 200 items by default (max 1000). Invalid since/limit parameters return a 400 without charging.
