## Description
Pay-per-call x402 services for agents: risk scoring, DeFi, wallet and market data.

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "x402-gateway": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","x402-gateway"]
  }
}
```

# programmable-money-x402

> **Encode Club Programmable Money Hackathon** — Circle × Arc  
> *Track: Agentic Economy — AI agents that hold wallets, pay and transact autonomously in USDC*
> **Repo (public):** https://github.com/Gentech-Labs/programmable-money-x402

## The Problem

AI agents need to pay for APIs, compute, and data — but there's no standard way to do it programmatically. Every integration means manual API keys, subscriptions, or custom payment flows. Real agent autonomy requires programmable money.

## The Solution

**x402 on Arc** — a payment gateway that bridges Circle's USDC infrastructure with the HTTP 402 Payment Required standard:

1. An agent calls an API → gets **HTTP 402** with payment requirements
2. The agent pays **USDC on Arc** (sub-second settlement, USDC fees)
3. Access is granted — no API keys, no signups, no human in the loop

This is **programmable money for the agent economy**.

## Architecture

```
Agent → HTTP Request → x402 Middleware → HTTP 402 + Arc USDC invoice
           ↓                                        ↓
    Access Granted  ←  Payment Verified  ←  Agent pays USDC on Arc
```

## Track Focus

**Agentic Economy** — AI agents hold wallets on Arc, pay for services in USDC autonomously, using Circle's stablecoin-native L1 for sub-second settlement.

## Components

- **x402 Gateway** — middleware that drops into any API, handles 402 → payment → access
- **Arc Settlement Layer** — USDC transfers via Circle's infrastructure on Arc
- **Agent SDK** — one function call for any agent to pay x402 APIs
- **Playground** — test transactions, manage wallets, see the flow live

## Why Arc + Circle

Arc is built for this — USDC as the native fee token, sub-second finality, and programmable wallet infrastructure. x402 on Arc means agents settle payments in the same block they're requested.

## Deployment (LIVE on Arc testnet)

**What the deployed contract does:** the agent wallet autonomously holds USDC, can be funded by any party, and executes agent-initiated transfers with a safety timeout — programmable money for agents, live on Circle's Arc L1.
