Why x402nano

x402nano is machine-payable Polymarket market intelligence for AI agents and MCP clients. It provides free market discovery and pricing tools, plus paid read-only Market Brief and Market Delta tools for 0.05 USDC per call on Base mainnet.

It does not trade, place bets, custody funds, or provide financial advice. Buyer keys remain local to the caller and are never received or stored by x402nano.

x402nano is an independent project and is not affiliated with x402nano.org or the Nano/XNO cryptocurrency. “nano” refers to the project’s small, pay-per-request intelligence scope. References to x402, Base, Polymarket, USDC, and MCP describe technical compatibility or public data sources and do not imply endorsement.

MCP Server

x402nano exposes a public, stateless MCP endpoint using the production Streamable HTTP transport:

https://x402nano.onrender.com/mcp

The remote server exposes free market discovery and pricing tools plus x402-protected 0.05 USDC Market Brief and Market Delta tools. Paid MCP calls use the official x402 MCP payment flow: the caller signs locally, the facilitator verifies and settles on Base, and x402nano never receives or stores a buyer private key.

The repository also retains the proven local stdio MCP server with conservative payment budgets. See mcp-server/README.md for both connection paths, unpaid verification, and client requirements. The standards-compliant remote server manifest is server.json.

Agent Quickstart

For a new MCP client or autonomous agent:

1. Find io.github.Bobjonesgood/x402nano in the official MCP Registry.
2. Connect to the Streamable HTTP remote: https://x402nano.onrender.com/mcp.
3. List tools and confirm list_trending_markets, get_market_pricing, get_market_brief, and get_market_delta.
4. Call list_trending_markets to choose a market slug.
5. Call get_market_pricing to confirm Base mainnet pricing.
6. Use an x402-aware MCP client for get_market_brief or get_market_delta.

Pricing and payment boundaries:

• Free tools: list_trending_markets, get_market_pricing.

What You Are Buying

x402nano does not sell raw Polymarket data. It sells packaged, agent-ready market intelligence objects that save an agent from stitching together market metadata, current prices, movement history, scoring, receipt handling, and safety boundaries itself.

A paid market brief includes:

• market identity, question, category, status, end date, and source URL
• current leading outcome and implied probability
• outcome pricing summary and top outcomes
• volume, 24h volume, 7d volume, liquidity, and change context when available
• 24h movement summary from public price history when available
• resolution/source context and data-quality notes
• descriptive scores for movement, attention, and data completeness
• watch points for future agent checks
• receipt metadata proving the paid unlock
• no-advice boundaries

A paid market delta includes:

• what changed since the caller-supplied since timestamp
• leading outcome start/end probabilities when public history is available
• absolute and relative probability change
• direction, changed flag, repeat-check priority, and unusual-movement flag
• current volume/liquidity context
• trajectory points when available
• data-quality notes explaining missing or nearest-point history
• receipt metadata proving the paid unlock
• no-advice boundaries

Freshness and methodology:

• Paid briefs and deltas are generated on request after a valid payment.
• Public freshness metadata advertises an expected max age of 90 seconds, with paid content kept behind 402 until payment.
• Brief movement uses the most recent public Polymarket data and 24h leading-outcome history when available.
• Delta movement is computed from public Polymarket CLOB price history for the leading outcome token between the caller's since timestamp and the latest available point.
• If exact history is unavailable, the response says so in dataQuality rather than pretending precision.
• Scores are descriptive heuristics from movement size, volume, liquidity, and data availability. They are not predictions or recommendations.

Machine-payable market intelligence API for AI agents and bots.

x402nano serves read-only Polymarket market briefs behind an HTTP 402 payment flow. An agent requests a market brief, receives a payment challenge, retries with X-PAYMENT, and receives unlocked JSON plus a receipt.

This is market intelligence infrastructure, not trading advice.

Paid briefs include 24h market movement, volume/liquidity context, resolution context, watch points, and safe descriptive scores. They do not include trading execution, custody, betting advice, or buy/sell recommendations.

Historical Mainnet Proofs

These are separate, owner-approved historical tests on Base mainnet. They demonstrate past paid unlocks; they are not instructions to make a payment.

The direct core proof runs verified the HTTP 402 challenge, locally signed payment retry, on-chain USDC settlement, receipt generation, and read-only JSON unlock. The seller wallet was 0x4cc3831eB479aCFb6D44631d4a30814508Cf52d3.

Proof references:

Direct core Market Brief transaction:

In-repo proof notes: TRUST.md ARCHITECTURE.md LISTING_METADATA.md DIRECT_DELTA_X402_PRODUCTION_UNLOCK_PROOF.md

Note: the local buyer script exited nonzero after the real unlock because the immediate post-payment buyer balance read was stale. Seller balance updated, receipt/events were recorded, and a later no-payment balance check confirmed the buyer moved from 1.00 to 0.95 USDC.
