Agent Verification Utility API is one of 3 APIs that [KG-NINJA](https://apis.io/providers/kgninja-dev/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Verification, JSON, x402, Agentic Commerce, and Agent-Native. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, an API reference, and a getting-started guide.

REST contract for the Agent Verification Utility: a free precheck (POST /validate-request) that binds a verification request and an explicit spend policy into an unsigned receipt, a free quote (POST /quote, Idempotency-Key required), and the paid execution route (POST /verify-evidence) that answers HTTP 402 with an x402 v2 PaymentRequired document and, on the paid retry, returns the deterministic result, Ed25519-signed evidence, a delivery receipt and a fulfillment proof. The remaining operations are discovery and operations surfaces — agent manifest, x402 manifest, RFC 9727 API catalog, AI catalog, MCP server card and registry document, Agent Skills index, JWKS, health, public stats, revenue goal — plus optional 15-minute anonymous agent registration. 44 operations, 47 component schemas, OpenAPI 3.1.0, served at https://agent-economy.kgninja.dev/openapi.json with servers[] "/" (relative to the deployment origin).
