research.halowerk.com
Scores a source along the dimensions that decide whether a claim can rest on it. Recency: how old the material is against how fast the field moves, because a five-year-old figure is fine in history and worthless in pricing. Directness: whether it reports its own research, official record or announcement, or relays someone else — every relay step loses detail and adds interpretation. Attribution: whether a named, identifiable author stands behind it.

0x2880EdfFF13100677Bf97A3CBdF3Bc34771C4E5EThe 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.

Conflict of interest: whether the publisher has a stake in the conclusion, which is the single most under-weighted factor in practice. The result is a score with every deduction itemised and the threshold it was judged against, so the verdict can be recomputed or disagreed with. It judges provenance, never truth: a well-attributed recent primary source can still be wrong.",

Using Roundhouse, look up the x402 service research.halowerk.com 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=research.halowerk.com' 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://research.halowerk.com/v1/source-authority, 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.
