x402 trust score for an endpoint (paid)
x402_trust_scoreCheck an x402 endpoint's trust score and payment verdict before paying to avoid dead, fraudulent, or hijacked services. Returns price, confidence band, and flags.
Instructions
Trust score (0-100, grade A-F, or '?' when unmeasured) for a SPECIFIC x402 endpoint -- cataloged or not (uncataloged endpoints are live-probed on first query, auto-adopted, score carries a low-confidence first-contact flag). PLUS a machine-readable verdict ('recommendation': proceed|caution|avoid|parameterize|unverified|not-payable|free), the advertised price ('advertised.amountUsd'), a confidence-adjusted band ('scoreRange'), and structured flags ('flagsDetailed' with code/severity/message; any severity 'error' means avoid). The 'parameterize' verdict (with 'templated':true) means the resource URL still contains an unresolved template placeholder (e.g. {slug}, :slug or %7B…%7D) but we DO have a real signal (scored probes or a discovery fallback): substitute a valid value first, then the health metrics apply to the resolved URL. The 'unverified' verdict (grade '?') means we have NO measurement at all (every probe excluded and no discovery payment requirements to fall back on): it is unknown, not bad, so verify the endpoint yourself before paying. The 'not-payable' verdict (grade '?') means the URL answers a 402 with an EMPTY accepts[] (an auth/API-key gate such as sign-in-with-x), or answers a bare 401/403 with no payment envelope, so it is not an x402-payable resource at all and there is nothing to settle. The 'free' verdict (grade '?') means the endpoint answers plain requests with data (HTTP 200, no payment envelope) and has never presented a payment challenge: a free resource with no payment flow to grade, unmeasured by design, not a negative verdict. For templated per-item endpoints that ARE payable, a varying payTo/price is EXPECTED (one wallet/price per item): the report surfaces 'stats.payToVaries'+'payToDistinct30d' and 'advertised.amountRange30d' as a 'payto-varies'/'price-varies' note rather than a 'payto-changed-recently' hijack error; always pay the payTo in the live 402 quote, not a cached listing. 'stats.scoredProbes30d' vs 'stats.excluded30d' show how many probes actually back the score. Includes the full component breakdown, the provider-advertised 'serviceName' and 'description' (unverified provider claims, shown next to our independent metrics), and 30-day on-chain stats. Note: 'stats.avgLatencyMs' is measured from a single EU vantage point and includes network distance to the endpoint (see 'stats.latencyVantage'), so a geographically distant endpoint reads slower even when its server is fast. One call answers WHETHER and at WHAT PRICE to use an endpoint. Call this BEFORE paying an unknown x402 endpoint to avoid dead, fraudulent, or recently-hijacked services. Each paid call also refreshes the endpoint's free public snapshot (page, badge, card) immediately. Pay-per-call over x402; auto-pays if a wallet is configured, otherwise returns the price quote.
