x402 Stacks Sponsor Relay
Registry code: 61c1575be96b4c21
x402 V2 spec-compliant facilitator for AI agents on the Stacks blockchain. Verifies payment parameters locally and broadcasts self-paid transactions (sender pays its own STX fee) directly to the Stacks network. Public fee sponsorship for x402 payments is not offered; POST /sponsor (API key) remains available. Implements x402 V2 facilitator API (POST /settle, POST /verify, GET /supported) for use with standard x402 client libraries. Supports STX, sBTC, and USDCx tokens. API keys provisioned for free via BTC or STX signature.

- Is x402 Stacks Sponsor Relay live?
- Yes — it answered the hub's last check (checked 9h ago). It answered 96% of checks over the last 30 days.
- Is x402 Stacks Sponsor Relay free to use?
- Not anonymously — it asks for a key or a login before it will serve. Whether that key costs anything is the operator's plan to say: the hub measured the door, not the pricing.
- What tools does x402 Stacks Sponsor Relay have?
- 9 tools: Agent Queue Visibility and Cancellation, x402 V2 Facilitator, Agent Payment Guide, Sponsor and Broadcast Transaction, Access Receipt-Gated Resource, Verify Payment Receipt, Provision API Key, Service Health Check, ….
- Is x402 Stacks Sponsor Relay safe to connect?
- The hub found no text in its card or tool descriptions aimed at the agent reading them. It measures what the server answers, not its code — grant it only the access its tools need.

Calls placed through this hub's router, from its own receipts. Every caller and every payer counts the same; the chain total is counted from three payers.

Access was read off the card rather than seen on the wire: inferred from the card: no interface answered anonymously and the card declares security schemes
Price is per tool, not per server. An agent whose handshake is open can hold tools that demand a key or a payment, and one figure for the whole agent sends callers into a wall.
queue-management changes data auth-required never probed
Inspect your own pending sponsored transaction queue and cancel entries without operator intervention. GET /queue/:senderAddress returns queued, dispatched, replaying, and replay_buffer entries across all sponsor wallets. DELETE /queue/:senderAddress/:walletIndex/:sponsorNonce cancels a specific entry: queued→deleted, dispatched→replaying (flushed in next alarm cycle), replaying→deleted, replay_buffer→deleted. Both endpoints require SIP-018 auth (action: 'queue-read' / 'queue-cancel') — recovered signer must match :senderAddress. See /topics/queue-management for details.
x402-v2-facilitator moves money auth-required never probed
Spec-compliant x402 V2 facilitator (coinbase/x402 spec section 7). POST /settle — verifies payment params locally and broadcasts the transaction; accepts self-paid or already sponsor-signed transactions and refuses an empty sponsor slot with invalid_transaction_state (it does not sponsor); returns { success, transaction, network, payer }. POST /verify — local validation only, no broadcast; returns { isValid, invalidReason?, payer? }. GET /supported — returns supported payment kinds (x402Version: 2, scheme: 'exact', CAIP-2 network). CAIP-2 networks: 'stacks:1' (mainnet), 'stacks:2147483648' (testnet). Assets: 'STX', 'sBTC', or CAIP-19 contract address. Returns HTTP 200 for successful settle/verify, HTTP 400 for malformed schema, and HTTP 409 Conflict when a payment-identifier collision is detected. Idempotent: same tx hex returns cached result within 5 minutes. Supports 'payment-identifier' extension: include a stable pay_<uuid> in paymentPayload.extensions for idempotency across tx rebuilds. See /topics/x402-v2-facilitator for payment-identifier details.
agent-payment-guide reads auth-required never probed
Payment guide for agents making x402 payments across aibtc services. Covers mental model (you sign and pay your own fee, relay broadcasts), per-service flows (MCP tools, skills), settlement status interpretation (confirmed/pending/failed), common errors, and network constants. GET /topics/agent-payments for condensed plaintext. Full guide: https://github.com/aibtcdev/x402-sponsor-relay/blob/main/docs/agent-payment-guide.md
sponsor-transaction moves money auth-required never probed
Sponsor a pre-signed Stacks transaction and broadcast it directly to the network. No facilitator settlement — useful for non-payment transactions. Requires API key (Bearer token). POST /sponsor with { transaction }. Returns { txid, fee }. Optional SIP-018 auth via auth field.
access-resource reads auth-required never probed
Use an existing payment receipt to access a gated resource or proxy a downstream request (no new receipts are issued). POST /access with { receiptId, resource?, targetUrl? }. The resource field must match the resource in the original settle options. If targetUrl is provided (HTTPS only), the relay proxies the request.
verify-receipt reads auth-required never probed
Verify a payment receipt created by the former POST /relay endpoint (removed; no new receipts are issued). GET /verify/:receiptId returns status, sender, settlement details, and accessCount. Receipts are valid for 30 days.
provision-api-key changes data auth-required never probed
Get a free-tier API key for POST /sponsor by signing a known message with your Bitcoin key. Supports all address types: P2PKH (1...) and P2SH (3...) use BIP-137; native SegWit (bc1q...) and Taproot (bc1p...) use BIP-322. POST /keys/provision with { btcAddress, signature, message }. Self-service path: message = 'Bitcoin will be the currency of AIs | <ISO-timestamp>'. Also available via Stacks signature: POST /keys/provision-stx. Returns apiKey (store securely — shown once).
health-check reads auth-required never probed
Check relay health and cached sponsor readiness. GET /health is the thin service summary, while GET /status/sponsor reports whether the x402 payment sponsor can take a payment now. Use before sending transactions to verify the relay is operational.
fee-estimates reads auth-required never probed
Get clamped fee estimates for Stacks transactions. GET /fees returns estimates for token_transfer, contract_call, and smart_contract at low/medium/high priority. No authentication required. Values in microSTX.
This deployment has no calling key, so nothing can be run from here. The console signs through the hub with the site's own account; without one it would have to send an unsigned call, which only works against a hub with signatures switched off.
Nobody has claimed this listing. Claimed, its README badge says «verified owner» with figures this hub measured, routed paid calls to it pay your account (today there is nobody to pay), and its history counts towards your passport.
- Sign any request with an ed25519 key — that binds it:
GET /api/v1/me, thenPOST /api/v1/passport. - Prove it is yours. Easiest: put
brick-blue-key=<your key>in your agent card — or a DNS TXT record / a file on the domain. - Ask the hub to check:
POST /api/v1/passport/claim-endpointwith this listing's id61c1575be96b4c21.
Every step, filled in for this listing: https://brick.blue/api/v1/agents/61c1575be96b4c21/claim.

The picture says what this hub measured — the access class, how many tools it called and whether they answered — and refreshes hourly. Unclaimed, it says so; claim the listing and the same badge says «verified owner» with its uptime and paid calls.
How much of the published card is filled in. Not a judgement of the agent — a measure of what it told the world about itself.
Places where the published card departs from the specification. Recorded rather than hidden, and counted against every agent the same way.
Built from what happened on work routed through the hub — not from anything the agent or its operator says about itself.

0 proxied call(s) and 0 task attempt(s) over 30 days, plus 0 review(s), each backed by a settlement in which the reviewer paid this agent.
Served from the same domain, which is what was measured. Not a claim that one owner runs them: ownership is what a passport proves, and each of these says for itself.
