Agent Quick Start — one round trip
POST /v2/forensics settles inline via the x402 facilitator. No webhook, no polling. Your agent pays and receives the result in the same request.
Requires a wallet funded with USDC on Base (chain 8453) and a small amount of ETH for gas.

No parameters. Returns an aggregated verdict plus per-check evidence and confidence scores across all six checks. Typical runtime 9–13s. The result hash is anchored on-chain to Base — hash the artifact you receive and compare it against the ledger to verify you got exactly what was committed at completion.
