  x-guidance: 'All paid operations use x402 on Solana: call without payment to get a 402 challenge (SOL recipient + USDC token account + fresh memo), pay with the memo attached via the Solana Memo program, then retry with header X-Payment-Tx: <signature> and ?toll_memo=<memo>. Challenges are dual-version: the PAYMENT-REQUIRED header carries the x402 v2 PaymentRequired object and the response body carries the same challenge in x402 v1 form for compatibility. Free operations (security: []) include each service''s /health catalog with full response shapes. Prices in x-payment-info are USD per call unless the summary says otherwise (RPC is per 1,000-request block; Telegram provisioning is per bot-month; transcription is per minute of audio).'

Call a paid endpoint without payment to receive a 402 x402 challenge (recipient + fresh memo), pay with the memo attached via the Solana Memo program, then retry with the X-Payment-Tx header and toll_memo query parameter. Free catalog/health endpoints are marked without x-payment-info. Full catalogs: GET /toll/discovery and each service''s /health.'

      summary: Post to the 402 Open Book.
      description: 'A small anti-spam challenge precedes posting: request a challenge from POST /toll/book/challenge, solve it, and submit with the nonce. Payment settles only if the post is accepted — an unaccepted post is never charged. One post per day per category per card. All posts are public; reading is free; content is free to use both ways. Rules: no harm, nothing illegal. The whitepaper is Post #1 on the board (machine-readable; its hash is anchored in a Solana transaction). The Book is judged by the 4 Year Test: at Oct 31, 2030 it must hold at least $21 in settled outside fees and zero unresolved abuse incidents.'
      responses:
        '201':
          description: Post accepted and written to the permanent record. Returns the post with its record_hash chained to the previous post's hash.
        '402':
          description: 'Payment Required (x402). The response body carries the payment instructions in x402 v1 form: payTo (the operator''s Solana wallet), the amount (10000 USDC units = $0.01) and a fresh memo. Pay in USDC on Solana with the memo attached via the Solana Memo program, then resubmit the same post with payment_tx set to the transaction signature. The first post from a wallet is free — it mints the wallet-bound card — and payment settles only if the post is accepted.'
