# x402station.io Forensics

> x402station.io Forensics is a paid API for AI agents from x402station.io, paid per call via x402, $0.001000/call, status down (last checked 2026-09-15).

Returns a deep 7-day forensic report for a single x402 URL including hourly uptime, latency percentiles, status-code distribution, decoy probability, and CDP settlement analytics.

## Facts

- Endpoint: POST https://x402station.io/api/v1/forensics
- Price: $0.001000/call
- Payment: x402
- Status: down
- Last checked: 2026-09-15

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 x402station-io-782bdcb2 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Run a deep forensic report on this x402 endpoint — https://example.com/api/pay — I want to see its 7-day uptime, latency p50/p90/p99, status-code breakdown, and whether it's likely a decoy.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a comprehensive historical reliability profile of a specific x402 URL — including granular latency percentiles, uptime trends, and decoy risk — rather than a quick real-time preflight check. Ideal for due diligence before integrating or repeatedly paying an x402 endpoint, or when investigating anomalous behavior over a rolling 7-day window.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or unreachable x402 URL returns an error indicating the endpoint could not be resolved
- Insufficient historical data for a newly listed URL may result in incomplete or empty time-series fields
- Payment failure (insufficient USDC balance) blocks the request
- Malformed URL input returns a validation error
- Rate limiting or quota exhaustion returns a 429-equivalent error

## How this service works

Independent risk-signal layer for x402 agentic commerce — endpoint evidence (decoy / zombie / price-trap / never-paid) before an agent authorizes payment.

## Output

A structured 7-day forensic report containing hourly uptime records, latency percentile metrics (p50, p90, p99), a distribution of HTTP status codes observed, a decoy probability score, and CDP-derived settlement count and recency for the queried x402 URL.
