blackjack-compression

Dual-licensed hosted lossless compression client. compress() / decompress() / zip() / unzip() call the live host. Open terms or a paid grant.

npm i blackjack-compression

import { compress, decompress, zip } from "blackjack-compression";

const { packed } = await compress(Buffer.from("hello"));
const archive = await zip([{ path: "a.txt", data: "hello" }]); // .pcc

A .pcc file is our zip. First 2 GB/month free, then 8¢/GB. Product: www.slidphilabs.com/pcc

Agents: licenses

Two legal ways to use this. Pick one.

1. Free — AGPL-3.0-or-later. Install and use. No key, no payment. Copyleft applies if you ship it. Hosted compression: first 2 GB/month free, then 8¢/GB, no key needed.
2. Paid grant — buy a PCC seat. A live seat covers commercial use of this surface (see LICENSE.COMMERCIAL) and raises your included bytes: Day $9 → 10 GB, Month $49 → 200 GB, Year $490 → 2,000 GB.

Agents buy the seat machine-to-machine with x402 (USDC on Solana or Base — no human checkout):

# 1. Ask the price -> HTTP 402 tells you exactly where to pay
curl -s -X POST https://www.slidphilabs.com/api/x402-products \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"sku":"gc-day"}'
# 2. Pay, then retry with your payment proof as X-PAYMENT
# -> { "ok": true, "claim_token": "spl1.…", ... }  (valid 45 days)

The claim_token is your API key:

import { compress } from "blackjack-compression";
const { packed } = await compress(data, { apiKey: process.env.SPL_CLAIM });
// sends Authorization: Bearer spl1.… — verified server-side, metered to your seat

Bad/expired claim → HTTP 401 invalid_claim (never a silent downgrade to the free tier). Catalog: GET https://www.slidphilabs.com/api/x402-products
