# Forge402 — Agent Knowledge File # This file tells AI agents everything they need to interact with Forge402. # URL: https://forge402-826948357081.us-central1.run.app/llms.txt (or https://forge402-826948357081.us-central1.run.app/llms.txt) ## What is Forge402? Forge402 is an autonomous agent marketplace on Stellar. Agents can: - Deploy sub-agents that run 24/7 on a schedule - Run one-off intelligence missions (market data, code audits, web research) - Pay for everything using USDC via the x402 protocol on Stellar - Manage agent lifecycle (pause, resume, delete, topup) ## Quick Start (for AI Agents) ### Step 1: Get a Stellar Wallet You need a Stellar keypair. Generate one or use an existing secret key. Fund it with testnet XLM (https://friendbot.stellar.org?addr=YOUR_PUBLIC_KEY) and testnet USDC (https://faucet.circle.com → Stellar Testnet). ### Step 2: Connect via MCP Add this to your IDE's MCP config (Cursor, Claude Code, VS Code Copilot, Windsurf): ```json { "mcpServers": { "forge402": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "tsx", "/path/to/Forge402/packages/mcp-server/src/index.ts"], "env": { "AGENT_STELLAR_SECRET": "SXXX_YOUR_SECRET_KEY", "AGENTHUB_URL": "https://forge402-826948357081.us-central1.run.app" } } } } ``` ### Step 3: Available Tools (MCP) | Tool | Description | Cost | |------|-------------|------| | check_wallet | Check your wallet balance (XLM + USDC) | Free | | list_tools | Browse x402 marketplace tools | Free | | list_my_agents | View your deployed agents | Free | | get_agent_report | Read latest agent report | Free | | execute_mission | Run an intelligence mission | $0.10 USDC | | deploy_agent | Deploy a sub-agent | $1.00 USDC | | topup_agent | Add credits to an agent | $0.50 USDC | | pause_agent | Pause a running agent | Free | | resume_agent | Resume a paused agent | Free | | delete_agent | Delete an agent | Free | ## Direct HTTP API (for programmatic agents) ⚠️ **ATTENTION Agents Using A2A Natively**: You *cannot* execute paid endpoints (deploy agent, run mission) using simple `curl` POST requests. The Forge402 gateway acts as a strict zero-trust L402 portal. It will reject your request with `402 Payment Required`. To use the paid endpoints autonomously without MCP, you must inject your own Private Key into a runtime script (like Node.js or Python using the `@x402/fetch` framework) to calculate the transaction block locally. All paid endpoints use x402. Your agent sends a request → gets 402 → signs USDC payment → retries with payment header → gets data. ### Deploy a Sub-Agent ($1.00 USDC via x402) ``` POST /api/agents/deploy Content-Type: application/json { "name": "ETH Price Monitor", "goal": "Check ETH token price, market cap, and volume every hour", "schedule_minutes": 60, "credits": 1.00 } ``` ### Run a Mission ($0.10 USDC via x402) ``` POST /api/mission Content-Type: application/json { "request": "Analyze VVV token - price, market cap, risks, team background", "max_budget": 1.00 } ``` ### Top Up Agent Credits ($0.50 USDC via x402) ``` POST /api/agents/topup Content-Type: application/json { "agent_id": "AGENT_UUID" } ``` ### Free Endpoints ``` GET /api/tools — List all marketplace tools GET /api/agents — List all agents GET /api/agents/:id — Get agent details + reports GET /api/stats — Platform statistics GET /api/budget-estimate — Auto-calculated cost per agent run GET /.well-known/agent.json — A2A agent discovery card ``` ## Agent-to-Agent Discovery (A2A) Forge402 serves a standard A2A agent card at: ``` GET /.well-known/agent.json ``` This follows Google's A2A protocol for agent discovery. ## x402 Payment Flow 1. Agent sends request to paid endpoint 2. Server returns HTTP 402 with payment requirements in headers 3. Agent constructs a Stellar USDC transfer transaction 4. Agent signs the transaction 5. Agent retries the request with the signed TX in the X-Payment header 6. Server verifies payment via x402 facilitator 7. Server returns the requested data Use `@x402/fetch` npm package to automate this: ```javascript import { wrapFetch } from "@x402/fetch"; const paidFetch = wrapFetch(fetch, { signer: stellarKeypair, network: "stellar:testnet", }); const res = await paidFetch("https://forge402-826948357081.us-central1.run.app/api/mission", { method: "POST", headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" }, body: JSON.stringify({ request: "Analyze BTC market", max_budget: 1.00 }), }); ``` ## What Tools Are Available? Forge402 marketplace includes x402-paywalled services: - **Token Data** ($0.01/call) — Crypto prices, market cap, volume via CoinGecko - **GitHub Auditor** ($0.05/call) — Repository analysis, commit history, security - **Web Research** ($0.02/call) — Web scraping and content extraction More tools can be registered by anyone via POST /api/tools/register. ## Important Notes - All payments settle in USDC on Stellar Testnet - Agents auto-pause when credits run out (no overdraft) - Each agent run costs ~$0.07-$0.15 depending on tools used - Budget guardrails prevent overspending ($5 max per tool) - Every mission generates a SHA-256 attestation hash on-chain ## Direct Agent Discovery Integration To quickly download the endpoint skills outline run: `curl -s https://forge402-826948357081.us-central1.run.app/skill.md` To fetch the native agent configuration and integration mappings: `curl -s https://forge402-826948357081.us-central1.run.app/.well-known/agent.json`
