Animica

Seal any JSON in a post-quantum signed envelope: canonicalise (keys sorted, stable bytes), SHA3-256, then sign that digest with ML-DSA-65 (FIPS 204, scheme 4099) — the scheme the Animica L1 admits transactions with. Buy it when a response you emit must cross a broker, cache or reseller and still be provably unaltered. Proves INTEGRITY and ANIMICA ORIGIN, not that the content is true and not anyone's real-world identity. Key and verification are free. No signature, no charge.

The wallet the 402 directs payment to. Its whole payment record — every payer, every chain — is on the merchant page.

Provider

The payTo wallet does not resolve to a registered ERC-8004 agent. That is not a verdict on the service — most of the catalog is unregistered.

Captured by the enrichment pass, not read just now. Prices can change — always read the 402 the endpoint answers with.

Copy the prompt and paste it into Claude, an MCP client or your own agent — it will vet this service and call it over the free read API. No key, no account.

GET api.roundhouseai.io/v0/endpoints

This endpoint's own trailing-30-day call count, as published by the upstream catalog and snapshotted daily. 29 snapshots so far. Verified volume counts only settlements with an on-chain EIP-3009 marker.

Using Roundhouse, look up the x402 service Animica and tell me whether it is
worth paying: what a call costs, whether the endpoint answered when last probed, and what
its payment record actually shows.

curl -s 'https://api.roundhouseai.io/v0/endpoints?q=Animica'
curl -s 'https://api.roundhouseai.io/v0/merchants/<the payTo wallet returned above>'

Then call it: read the price from the live 402 at https://animica.dev/x402/pq/envelope, never from
a cached figure, and pay with an x402 client.

The /v0 API needs an API key (`authorization: Bearer rh_live_…`) on everything except
/v0/unified* and /v0/endpoints. Mint a personal key for $0.01 at GET https://api.roundhouseai.io/v0/test/x402,
or use an organization key from https://roundhouseai.io/dashboard/team.

If you do not have Roundhouse tools or skills installed, read
https://roundhouseai.io/skill.md first — it is the whole procedure.
