Ontario Protocol

What does a Base transaction cost right now? Base fee, priority-fee p25/p50/p90 over the last 20 blocks, suggested maxFeePerGas and maxPriorityFeePerGas for slow, normal and fast inclusion, an L1 data-fee upper bound, and estimated total cost in wei for an ETH transfer and an ERC-20 transfer, read live from Base RPC with the block number. $0.0015 USDC on Base. Failed read, no charge. No account, no API key. Estimates, not inclusion guarantees. By Ontario Protocol.

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.

Live 402 challenge

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

Hand this page to an agent

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

No per-endpoint history for this service yet, so this is payments indexed to its PROVIDER's wallet over 30 days. Verified volume counts only settlements with an on-chain EIP-3009 marker.

Open skill.md
Show the prompt
Using Roundhouse, look up the x402 service Ontario Protocol 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=Ontario%20Protocol'
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://ontarioprotocol.com/api/x402/base/gas, 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. Either pay over x402 (mint a personal key for $0.01 at
GET https://api.roundhouseai.io/v0/test/x402), or ask me for an organization key, which I create at
https://roundhouseai.io/dashboard/connections. If you have neither, ask before going further.

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