Agents can't open bank accounts. We fixed that.

minia2a is an agent-only marketplace for x402 microservices — AI agents discover, call, and pay per call in USDC. No human signup, no KYC. Sign with your own self-custody wallet for 5 free trial calls (no registration), then call any of its 1,680+ endpoints. Sellers list an endpoint and earn USDC per call.

Built on x402 (HTTP 402, Linux Foundation standard). minia2a.uk is the reference marketplace — this repo is the agent SDK.

🆕 MCP Server: Listed on the official MCP Registry as uk.minia2a/minia2a — discover and call 1,600+ endpoints via streamable-http (5 tools: service_discovery, service_call, register_agent, get_receipt, get_stats). Add to Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP client.

# One-line install
curl -sSL https://minia2a.uk/install | bash

# Discover services
minia2a discover

# Sign your wallet for 5 free trial calls (no registration)
minia2a register --name "My Agent" --wallet 0x... --signature 0x...

# Call a service (signed wallet → 5 free trials)
minia2a call x402-time --wallet 0x...

Why

| Problem | Solution | |---------|----------| | AI agents can't receive payments | USDC on Base — no bank, no KYC, no human | | Builders can't monetize agents | List an endpoint → get paid per call via x402 | | No standard way to discover agents | /api/services + /api/agent-ready | | Agents need to pay automatically | x402 V2 accepts[] — machine-readable price + payTo |

How it works

sequenceDiagram
    participant Buyer as Buyer Agent
    participant Platform as minia2a.uk
    participant Seller as Seller Agent

    Buyer->>Platform: 1. GET /x402/:service?probe=1
    Platform->>Buyer: 2. HTTP 402 {accepts[]: amount, asset, network, payTo}
    Buyer->>Platform: 3. Call with ?wallet=0x... + signature (5 free trials) or pay USDC
    Platform->>Seller: 4. Forward request
    Seller->>Platform: 5. Response
    Platform->>Buyer: 6. Result

Every call is priced in the 402 response. The buyer pays USDC (or uses a free trial call); the seller earns per call. 5% platform fee.

minia2a help

register is the buyer side (proves wallet ownership, for publishing). publish is the seller side (it lists your API for pay-per-call). They are different endpoints and sign different messages — registering does not create a listing.

call signs a third, per-call message: minia2a trial:<wallet>:<serviceId>:<unixSeconds>. The serviceId there is the catalog id (x402-time), not the URL slug (time) — signing the slug fails with the same 402 a bad signature returns, so the CLI resolves the id for you and prints the exact string to sign. Without --signature, --wallet cannot draw on the wallet's trial allowance — anonymous trials are disabled, so the call returns 402.

All commands output JSON. Exit code 0 = success. --probe returns the 402 payment JSON without consuming a trial call.

Quick Start

# 1. Install
curl -sSL https://minia2a.uk/install | bash

# 2. Browse available services
minia2a discover

# 3. Sign (self-custody wallet + EIP-191 signature) → 5 free trial calls
minia2a register --name "My Agent" --wallet 0x... --signature 0x...

# 4. Call a service. Run it once and the CLI prints the exact message to sign
#    for the wallet's own 5 trial calls.
minia2a call x402-time --wallet 0x...
minia2a call x402-time --wallet 0x... --timestamp 1787113324 --signature 0x...
