Ontario Protocol

Free pre-payment policy decision: allow, review, or deny for one x402 endpoint under strict, standard, or permissive policy, with reasons and report evidence. require_audit_receipt adds a handoff to the optional settlement-backed receipt.

Free live, rate-limited agent trust preview for one public endpoint. Returns safe signals and issues without the paid evidence bundle or attestation; the paid trust scan adds them.

Free read-only provider audit that runs Coinbase's indexing preflight and measures one public x402 endpoint across five live CDP Bazaar buyer-search variations. Returns retrieval coverage, observed sample ranks, alternatives, public 30-day call and unique-payer observations, Base USDC price bands, HTTP 402 and metadata readiness, and the activation boundary. Public quality counts may include owner-funded calls and are not revenue. It never signs or settles.

Free buyer-side search across Ontario's fresh strict-ready paid profiles, Agentic Market, and Coinbase CDP Bazaar. Returns unverified marketplace candidates ranked by task relevance plus bounded source-reported recent activity, with optional Base/USDC budget filtering; nothing is probed, so listings may be dead or mispriced. ontario_find-api returns live-checked candidates. Paid Ontario publication adds no ranking score. Provider-side publication queries return the free listing validator and the 0.50 USDC publication workflow.

Free pre-deployment scan of one public GitHub repository for x402 implementation, HTTP 402 tests, payment configuration, buyer documentation, discovery metadata, CI gates, and sensitive filenames. Returns paths and remediation, never source contents.

Base wallet balance: ETH, USDC and about 25 widely held Base tokens for any address, plus up to 20 ERC-20 token contracts you name, each with symbol, decimals, raw and formatted amount and the block number read, live from Base mainnet RPC. Required: address. $0.002 USDC on Base. Failed read, no charge. No account, no API key. Base mainnet only; no prices or USD values; tokens outside the list and your extras are not discovered. [PAID: 0.002 USDC via x402 on Base. Two-step flow: a call without payment returns MCP PaymentRequired; the retry carries the signed PaymentPayload in params._meta['x402/payment']. The legacy _x402_payment base64 argument is also supported. Signing happens in the caller's wallet.]

Base gas price: base fee, priority fee p25/p50/p90 over the last 20 blocks, ready-to-sign maxFeePerGas and maxPriorityFeePerGas for slow, normal and fast inclusion, an L1 data-fee upper bound, and the estimated total cost in wei of an ETH transfer and an ERC-20 transfer, live from Base mainnet RPC with the block number. Required: none; optional blocks (5 to 50). $0.0015 USDC on Base. Failed read, no charge. No account, no API key. Estimates, not inclusion guarantees. [PAID: 0.0015 USDC via x402 on Base. Two-step flow: a call without payment returns MCP PaymentRequired; the retry carries the signed PaymentPayload in params._meta['x402/payment']. The legacy _x402_payment base64 argument is also supported. Signing happens in the caller's wallet.]

Verify Base transaction by hash: status, block, timestamp and confirmations, with USDC and ERC-20 Transfers decoded (token, from, to, amount; up to 100 listed, transfers_total gives the full count), any EIP-3009 authorization used, and match flags for an expected payTo and amount, so an x402 payment receipt or PAYMENT-RESPONSE can be checked as settled. Required: hash. $0.002 USDC on Base. Transaction not found, no charge. No account, no API key. Base mainnet only. [PAID: 0.002 USDC via x402 on Base. Two-step flow: a call without payment returns MCP PaymentRequired; the retry carries the signed PaymentPayload in params._meta['x402/payment']. The legacy _x402_payment base64 argument is also supported. Signing happens in the caller's wallet.]

Which x402 API should my agent call? Live API finder for any task. Required: task. Returns up to 5 paid APIs that answered a fresh unpaid probe with a valid Base USDC 402, ranked by task fit, price and Bazaar-reported repeat buyers, each with live price, network and a ready-to-call request. Provider calls are paid separately. No live match, no charge. $0.005 USDC on Base. No account, no API key. Recommendations, not a safety guarantee. [PAID: 0.005 USDC via x402 on Base. Two-step flow: a call without payment returns MCP PaymentRequired; the retry carries the signed PaymentPayload in params._meta['x402/payment']. The legacy _x402_payment base64 argument is also supported. Signing happens in the caller's wallet.]

Submits a public directory listing for an agent the caller owns. Payload validation is free; payment does not guarantee approval, traffic, ranking, or safety. [PAID: 0.10 USDC via x402 on Base. Two-step flow: a call without payment returns MCP PaymentRequired; the retry carries the signed PaymentPayload in params._meta['x402/payment']. The legacy _x402_payment base64 argument is also supported. Signing happens in the caller's wallet.]

Publish a provider-owned x402 API so AI agents can discover and buy it. After free validation and a Bazaar buyer-intent audit, the 0.50 USDC Launch Passport creates a public profile with a signed JSON twin, readiness and Coinbase indexing evidence, a five-query retrieval snapshot, badge, copy-ready MCP/catalog records, and 30 days of freshness maintenance. It can become eligible for strict Ontario discovery when evidence is ready and fresh. It does not guarantee Coinbase placement, ranking, traffic, purchases, a ready grade, or safety. [PAID: 0.50 USDC via x402 on Base. Two-step flow: a call without payment returns MCP PaymentRequired; the retry carries the signed PaymentPayload in params._meta['x402/payment']. The legacy _x402_payment base64 argument is also supported. Signing happens in the caller's wallet.]

Free deterministic routing of one public task to Ontario's free and paid tools. Returns the matching tool and a decision (free_only, run_free_preflight, or paid_recommended with the tool's price, network and budget check). Natural endpoint-verification tasks route to the free readiness verifier, with the optional 0.002 USDC settlement-backed receipt disclosed. Provider jobs such as publishing, registering, or making an x402 endpoint discoverable route to the self-serve 0.50 USDC publication product and its free validator. Paid reads it can recommend: ontario_find-api (a live-checked paid API for a task), ontario_base-balances (Base wallet balances), ontario_base-tx-check (whether a Base transaction settled) and ontario_base-gas (current Base gas prices). Existing paid profiles route to the 0.10 USDC evidence refresh and its free refresh validator. Empty calls return task examples instead of guessing a purchase. This tool never invokes another tool, signs a payload, or spends funds.

Attaches a fresh live readiness observation to an existing paid Ontario provider profile's canonical HTML, JSON twin, and badge. This tool cannot edit provider metadata, improve a grade by payment, or buy ranking or traffic. Freshness maintenance is automatic and included during the launch passport's first 30 days. [PAID: 0.10 USDC via x402 on Base. Two-step flow: a call without payment returns MCP PaymentRequired; the retry carries the signed PaymentPayload in params._meta['x402/payment']. The legacy _x402_payment base64 argument is also supported. Signing happens in the caller's wallet.]

Free task-to-tool matching with an optional Jev second opinion. With allow_typesafe=true, your public task and Ontario's public tool descriptions are sent to TypeSafe for Jev inference. Do not supply secrets, personal data, private URLs, or customer content. Ontario does not persist task text here. TypeSafe processing is subject to its policies; zero retention is not promised. Without consent, only Ontario's deterministic router is used. Returns a callable tool and input schema, or abstains. Never executes tools or authorizes payment. Model quota exhaustion falls back to deterministic routing.

Validate an agent listing payload for free before publication. Never publishes, signs or spends.

Check an existing paid provider profile's refresh eligibility for free, including cooldown. Never refreshes, signs or spends.

Free provider listing preflight for the 0.50 USDC Ontario launch passport. Validates public service metadata, runs a live readiness scan (8 s budget) that saves a public signed readiness report, and an exact-URL Bazaar lookup. Returns a summary with grade, score, report_published, Bazaar presence and the top findings, or endpoint_unreachable with the fix when the endpoint returns no HTTP response. verify_now=false skips the scan and the report. Never publishes a listing, signs or spends.

Generate a validated listing payload, x402 resource draft, MCP descriptor, GitHub readiness workflow, README snippet, and registry copy for one paid endpoint.

Free check for whether a paid endpoint is ready for agent discovery and x402 payment. Returns a readiness grade, a free end-to-end buyer-path diagnostic handoff and a grade-aware provider handoff that states whether the endpoint is ready-grade for the optional 0.50 USDC publication and links the free listing validator.
