accepting-payments

What problem does it solve?

This Skill allows developers to turn any Next.js API route into a paid, monetized endpoint using the x402 protocol, simplifying secure micropayments.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Payment Middleware Generation: Creates middleware that verifies payments and enforces access control.
• Rate Limiting Integration: Implements per-agent and per-IP rate limits to prevent abuse.
• Lifecycle Hooks: Adds hooks for tracking payment requests, verifications, and settlements, enabling auditing and analytics.
  Use case: A developer wants to monetize their API by requiring a small payment for each request while tracking active users and preventing excessive use.

Quick Start

Request a paid API endpoint by adding the /beacon-pay trigger to your route handlers to automatically generate the necessary middleware and hooks.
