x-guidance: 'SCVD General Store verifies x402 commerce and sells signed artifacts. Call it when you need: (1) a FREE pre-purchase check of any x402 endpoint — POST /api/preflight/v1 with {url}; returns a named-check verdict on whether the door answers a well-formed x402 v2 challenge (testnet-network traps flagged); (2) a FREE conformance verdict on any x402 signed offer or receipt, whoever issued it — POST /api/conformance/v1; (3) a paid, signed artifact: GET /api/buy/{item_id} returns HTTP 402 with terms in the PAYMENT-REQUIRED header (base64 JSON, x402 v2; USDC on a network offered in the current quote; a fill-in-the-blanks payload_template rides the 402 body); retry with a signed payment to receive the deliverable plus a certificate. Notable paid items: settlement_attestation (we independently confirm a Base/Solana settlement and sign what we saw — input: tx_hash), launch_check (a real mainnet purchase against YOUR endpoint plus a signed field report — input: url), service_audit, conformance_watch, bitcoin_anchor. Inputs are query parameters, declared per item in /menu.json; outputs are JSON with a certificate id. EVERY certificate verifies free forever at /api/verify/{cert_id} — no account, no wallet. Starting prices run $0.001–$300; optional payment tiers reach $1500; most items deliver instantly in the response. Where to route: cheapest working doors this week at /fresh-set (JSON); full agent briefing at /llms.txt. Before you start: free instruments need only plain HTTPS (no account, key or SDK); a purchase needs an x402 v2 client and a wallet holding USDC on Base (eip155:8453), Polygon (eip155:137), Arbitrum (eip155:42161), World (eip155:480), Solana (solana:5eykt4UsFv8P8NJdTREpY1vzqKqZKvdp), paid only on a network the 402 offers; the stock client refuses payments above $1 by default and 14 of 35 priced doors sit above it; optional tooling (scvd-tab, the MCP stdio bridge, the scvd CLI) is listed at https://scvd.store/agents.md and none of it is required.'

description: 'Too many requests, from the edge rather than from the store''s own logic. Retry after the interval named in Retry-After; the store does not charge for a refusal. The free preflight is limited — 30 probes per isolate per minute, 60 global — because it spends outbound requests to a host the caller chooses. Every answer the limiter METERED carries the IETF RateLimit fields — the 200 and the 429 — so you can pace against the live number instead of discovering the ceiling by being refused: RateLimit-Limit / -Remaining / -Reset report whichever of the two buckets is closer to binding, and RateLimit / RateLimit-Policy name both. Past either ceiling it returns 429 with Retry-After. A validation refusal (400, e.g. a missing or unprobeable URL) returns BEFORE either bucket is touched and carries no RateLimit fields, because a malformed request never spent a probe; this contract used to declare them on those responses too, which described a header that had never been sent. No other operation enforces an application-level ceiling, and so returns no RateLimit headers: declaring a ceiling nothing enforces would be worse than declaring none. A 429 can also arrive from the edge under abuse conditions. A refused request is never charged for. The two figures above are read from the limiter''s own constants, not restated here — this string asserted that NO limit existed for a day after one shipped.'
