  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).'
  description: '67 data and utility APIs behind x402 tolls, settled in SOL or USDC on Solana. 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.'

Returns the full signed report: the fit verdict with the payload''s token count under the pinned tokenizer, the effective budget and the exact excess; where it does not fit, a shaped payload produced only by the four published mechanical operations (S-1..S-4, in that order) and a drop receipt whose deltas reconcile exactly. Submitted payloads are processed in memory only and are never stored.'
        '402':
          description: 'Payment Required (x402). A per-item fee: $0.02 per call — each payload you submit with a stated token budget is charged at $0.02; the payment includes one submitted payload (request body up to 262,144 bytes) and your stated budget, returned as (1) a signed fit verdict stating the payload''s token count under the tokenizer named in the verdict, your effective budget, and whether it fits or the exact excess; (2) where it does not fit, a shaped payload produced only by the mechanical operations published in token-efficiency/v1 — duplicate removal, empty-field removal, per-field truncation, tail truncation, in that order — and (3) a drop receipt listing every operation applied, by field, with token counts before and after that reconcile exactly with the shaped payload. No operation selects content by meaning; nothing is summarised, re-ranked, or rewritten by a model. If the payload cannot be brought within your stated budget under your stated constraints, you receive the unchanged payload with the verdict that it is not shapable within those constraints. A free pre-check returns the verdict line and the excess figure only. Submitted payloads are processed in memory only and are never stored; the payments ledger records only the payer, the time, the price, and the verdict. The response body carries the payment instructions in x402 v1 form: payTo (the operator''s Solana wallet), the amount (20000 USDC units = $0.02 per call) and a fresh memo. Pay in USDC on Solana with the memo attached via the Solana Memo program, then resubmit the same budget request with the payment transaction in the X-Payment-Tx header and ?toll_memo=<memo>, re-sending the payload in the request body. The PAYMENT-REQUIRED response header carries the same object in x402 v2 form.'
