🌟 The Vision

AI agents are transitioning from passive conversational assistants into autonomous economic actors that negotiate, barter, and settle compute, real-time datasets, and fine-tuned inferences.

However, existing payment mechanisms fail autonomous agents:

1. Legacy Rails (Stripe, Cards, Banks): Require human KYC, cards, 3D Secure / 2FA prompts, and high minimum fees ($0.30 + 3%) that destroy micro-transactions.

2. The Distributed Fair-Exchange Dilemma (Cleve, 1986): If Agent A pays Agent B upfront, Agent B may defect or hallucinate. If Agent B delivers the work upfront, Agent A has zero incentive to pay.

MooveGate solves this fundamental bottleneck by pairing Cryptographic Hash Commitments (SHA-256) with Moove Agentic Payments' cross-chain Receive Agent.

🚀 Key Innovations

1. Zero-Custody Cryptographic Fair-Exchange

• Hash-Locked Deliverable Mechanism (HLDM): The supplying agent locks its deliverable under an ephemeral 256-bit symmetric key and publishes an immutable SHA-256 digest.

• Moove Receive Agent Binding: An official Moove payment link (POST /v1/payment-link) is generated with the hash commitment encoded in the description field for 100% accounting transparency.

• On-Chain Settlement Verification: Settlement across 30+ chains and 16,000+ cryptocurrencies is verified via GET /v1/payment-link/{id} before releasing the decryption key.

• Zero Custody: MooveGate never moves money and never holds private keys. Funds settle directly to the developer's verified Moove Handle.

2. First Moove Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server

Enables any AI agent running in Anthropic Claude Desktop, Cursor IDE, Windsurf, LangGraph, or AutoGen to natively invoice and receive payments in USDC.

3. Drop-in HTTP 402 Paywall Middleware

Turn any Python FastAPI or Node.js endpoint into an autonomous crypto-monetized pay-per-call service in 3 lines of code:

@moove_paywall(price="5.00", memo="AuditReport")
def audit_smart_contract(repo_url: str):
    return {"status": "verified", "vulnerabilities": 0}

⚡ Quickstart

1. Run Autonomous Multi-Agent Simulation

Simulate end-to-end bilateral agent commerce with live cryptographic commitments and Moove settlement verification:

python simulation/run_autonomous_economy.py

2. Run Test Suite

python -m unittest tests/test_fair_exchange.py

3. Launch Interactive Web Dashboard

Open dashboard/index.html in any modern web browser or preview via your local server:

• Experience the live 4-step A2A negotiation simulator.

• Generate and test live or sandbox Moove payment links.

• Monitor real-time merchant analytics and settlement latency.

🔌 Using with Claude Desktop or Cursor (MCP)

Add the following to your claude_desktop_config.json or Cursor MCP configuration:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "moovegate": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "mcp_server.server"],
      "env": {
        "MOOVE_API_KEY": "mk_live_your_key_here",
        "MOOVE_API_BASE_URL": "https://api.moove.xyz"
      }
    }
  }
}

Available Tools:

• moove_create_payment_link: Create hosted payment link for an invoice.

• moove_check_payment_status: Inspect whether a link has been settled on-chain.

• moove_poll_settlement: Politely poll until settlement confirmation.

• moove_fair_exchange_initiate: Lock deliverable under hash commitment and issue Moove invoice.

• moove_list_settled_links: Reconcile completed payments.

🏆 Moove Developer Program Alignment

MooveGate directly targets the $100,000 Moove Developer Fund (claiming up to $10,000 in USDC across 4 milestone tranches):

• Category: AI Agent Builders & Developer Infrastructure.

• Why Moove Appreciates This: Rather than waiting for humans to manually click checkout buttons, MooveGate enables autonomous agents to settle millions of micro-transactions continuously on Moove rails.

• See GRANT_APPLICATION.md for the complete submission package.

• See WHITE_PAPER.md for mathematical safety and game-theoretic proofs.
