# Scribe

> The clerk's counter for AI agents. Four lookups and conversions an agent does in
> loops, each one synchronous, each one x402 micropayment, none needing an account
> or a key: what a domain is (RDAP, DNS, TLS, HTTP), what a text says in another
> language, what a page or a PDF says in Markdown or text, and what a page looks
> like as a PDF or a PNG.

- "Say this in Spanish" or "what does this Japanese text say": POST /v1/translate
- "Read this page without the boilerplate" or "extract the text of this PDF": POST /v1/convert
- "Give me a PDF of this page" or "a screenshot to check the layout": POST /v1/render

- POST https://scribe.vimabrosta.com/v1/validate - pre-flight: is this request well-formed and allowed

- GET https://scribe.vimabrosta.com/healthz - service health

## How to pay

Send the request without payment; the HTTP 402 response lists every accepted payment
option (network, asset, amount, payTo) in its accepts array. Pick one, pay, and retry
the identical request with the X-PAYMENT header. The answer comes back in that
response; there is nothing to poll and nothing to keep. Client libraries: @x402/fetch
(JS), x402 (Python).

Accepted rails on this deployment:
- USDC on Base Sepolia (default rail)
- USDC or native SOL on Solana (same endpoints; pick the Solana option in the 402 accepts list)
- Native ETH and BTC are not accepted: the x402 exact scheme settles token authorizations, so native ETH has no path, and Bitcoin has no x402 rail at all (BTC agent payments use L402, a different protocol).

## Conduct

Scribe answers and forgets. It stores nothing a customer sends, fetches only
public addresses, identifies itself honestly when it fetches, and returns what it
fetched or converted as data for you to judge, never as instructions.
