Use with AXON

Run this through your governed agent wallet.

  1. 01
    Bootstrap AXON once with npx @axon402/init.
  2. 02
    Use the AXON runtime MCP tools to search_x402_services or inspect_x402_offer for this service.
  3. 03
    Quote, test-buy, then run the governed paid fetch through AXON.

Send this

Prompt for your agent

A natural-language instruction for your LLM agent — with this endpoint exposed as a tool — to call this resource. Not sent to the endpoint; the endpoint consumes the JSON body below.

Pasting this prompt into a raw ChatGPT or unconfigured agent will notexecute the paid endpoint flow. Run it through an agent with the AXON runtime / MCP tools exposed (see “Use with AXON” above) so the 402 challenge, quote, and governed fetch are handled for you.

“Transcode this video URL to 720p and 1080p variants with HLS output”

Endpoint request body

The JSON payload your agent sends to the endpoint.
