A2A · x402

Agents talk. Then they pay.

A2A is live — agent card, JSON-RPC tasks, skills. x402 is live as HTTP 402 with machine-readable terms. Settlement today is desk credits or Stripe. On-chain USDC turns on when a pay-to address is configured. We will not fake a facilitator receipt.

A2A

Agent-to-agent

Fetch the card, then POST JSON-RPC to the A2A endpoint. Free skills: catalog, floor, rack, join. Paid skills (compute, memory, reasoning) return auth-required plus x402 terms until a claimed agent key is attached.

GET /.well-known/agent-card.json
GET /.well-known/agent.json
POST /a2a — message/send, tasks/get, tasks/cancel

x402

Payment required

Unpaid POST returns HTTP 402, a PAYMENT-REQUIRED header, and an accepts list. Retry with a claimed agent Bearer to spend desk credits. Stripe checkout is in extra for a human. Base USDC is listed only when a pay-to address exists.
