What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps agents handle HTTP 402 Payment Required APIs by completing machine-to-machine payments instead of only reporting payment challenges.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • MPP Payment Handling: Connects with Machine Payments Protocol clients to pay for per-request API access.
  • Wallet and Payment Method Selection: Guides usage of Stripe Link, Tempo Wallet, Privy Agent CLI, AgentCash, or mppx based on the payment challenge and user setup.
  • Use Case: Enable an AI agent to access a paid API endpoint that requires a wallet-backed payment credential before returning data.

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema
How do I handle an HTTP 402 Payment Required response when accessing an API?

To handle an HTTP 402 Payment Required response, an agent must use machine payment protocols to complete the transaction. This Skill resolves API payment challenges by connecting MPP-compatible clients to agent wallets for autonomous per-request data access.

What is the Machine Payments Protocol for autonomous API access?

The Machine Payments Protocol (MPP) enables machine-to-machine transactions for paid API endpoints. It allows AI agents to automatically select wallet-backed payment credentials and fulfill per-request service fees instead of merely reporting payment challenges.

Which agent wallets can I use to pay for HTTP 402 API challenges?

You can use Stripe Link, Tempo Wallet, Privy Agent CLI, AgentCash, or mppx to pay for HTTP 402 API challenges. Wallet selection depends on the specific payment challenge returned and your existing user setup.

Do I need Node.js tooling to set up machine payments for API requests?

Yes, Node.js tooling is required to set up machine payments for API requests. You also need MPP-compatible clients, funded payment accounts, and secure credential handling to complete automated transactions successfully.

How do I configure an AI agent to autonomously pay for per-request API services?

Configure the agent to use an MPP-compatible client and a funded wallet like Tempo or AgentCash. When the agent encounters an HTTP 402 challenge, the mpp-agent skill autonomously resolves the payment credential requirement to retrieve data.
