Agent Quick Start — one round trip

POST /v2/forensics (fixed basket) or POST /v2/forensics/custom (1–8 public hosts) settles inline via the x402 facilitator. No webhook, no polling.

Requires a wallet funded with USDC on Base (chain 8453) and a small amount of ETH for gas.

pip install "x402[requests]" eth-account

from eth_account import Account
from x402.client import x402ClientSync
from x402.mechanisms.evm.exact import register_exact_evm_client
from x402.http.clients.requests import x402_requests

account = Account.from_key("0xYOUR_PRIVATE_KEY")

client = x402ClientSync()
register_exact_evm_client(client, account)
session = x402_requests(client)

r = session.post("https://api.mcx-ventures.com/v2/forensics", json={})
print(r.json()["verdict"])   # OK | WARN | CRITICAL | INCONCLUSIVE

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.

Discovery: /.well-known/x402 or /.well-known/x402.json • also listed in the CDP Bazaar and on x402-list.

Quick Start — self-custodied rail (v1)

1. POST to /v1/verify with your payload
2. Receive 402 response with job_id and payment amount
3. Send USDC to wallet address on Base L2 with job_id as memo
4. POST to /v1/webhook/payment with job_id and tx_hash
5. Re-submit original request with job_id to trigger execution
6. Poll /v1/job/{job_id} until status is complete
