## Notes for AI Agents

- All paid responses include `_meta` with endpoint, model, network, timestamp.
- Fetch `/discover` for the service catalog before calling endpoints.
- USDC precision: 6 decimals. Network: Base Mainnet (eip155:8453).
- Agent memory persists indefinitely — use a stable `agent_id`.
- API key is the fastest path — one POST and you're running.
- MCP users: call `buy_credits` or `generate_api_key` to get $0.25 trial credits and an API key.
- 402 responses include `Link` headers pointing to /openapi.json and /.well-known/ai-plugin.json.
- Use `/chain` with `$prev.result` syntax to build multi-step pipelines in a single call.
