x402▲119Hi HN – excited to announce x402, initially developed by Coinbase (YC 12) x402 lets any HTTP API charge per request without issuing API keys or storing credit cards. Buyers (humans or AI agents) keep funds in their own wallet and dynamically discover compatible endpoints, call them as usual, and automatically pay a microtransaction in USDC or other tokens to settle. 90 second demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PV-L2AfLhJg Problem: Every time we want to use a new API we have to: find the service online create a developer account, copy a secret key into env vars, pre-fund or…

The stack: two agents on separate boxes. The public one (nullclaw) is a 678 KB Zig binary using ~1 MB RAM, connected to an Ergo IRC server. Visitors talk to it via a gamja web client embedded in my site. The private one (ironclaw) handles email and scheduling, reachable only over Tailscale via Google's A2A protocol. Tiered inference: Haiku 4.5 for conversation (sub-second, cheap), Sonnet 4.6 for tool use (only when needed). Hard cap at $2/day. A2A passthrough: the private-side agent borrows the gateway's own inference pipeline, so there's one API key and one billing relationship…

Hi HN, I built this side project earlier this week. It executes an English auction on Solana with a reserve price of 0.1 SOL. Auction winner gets control of a Codex editor. Auction losers get refunded (minus a <$0.01 processing fee). The Codex agent operates in a sandbox and can only output HTML/JS/CSS. The project is open-source: https://github.com/neelsomani/the-daily-auction

Hi HN, I was once given the advice: Don't waste expensive frontier model credits (GPT/Claude/etc.) on bulk work. Send the boring, repetitive, high-volume jobs to a smaller model, and save the expensive prompts for when you actually need frontier-level reasoning. I complained and told my manager that I shouldnt have to think about using certain models for certain coding tasks, and that one model should handle everything. Well, here we are anyway. If anyone needs a place to absolutely abuse an LLM with high-volume tasks, come beat ours up at https://yolo-auto.com. Here are…

I'm a solo dev in Taiwan. I built 4 AI agents that handle content, sales leads, security scanning, and ops for my tech agency — all on Gemini 2.5 Flash free tier (1,500 req/day). I use ~105. Monthly LLM cost: $0. Architecture: 4 agents on OpenClaw (open source), running on WSL2 at home with 25 systemd timers. What they do every day: - Generate 8 social posts across platforms (quality-gated: generate → self-review → rewrite if score < 7/10) - Engage with community posts and auto-reply to comments (context-aware, max 2 rounds) - Research via RSS + HN API + Jina Reader → feed…

Hey HN - I'm Mason, and I'm excited to share AgentCash - a CLI to help your agent discover and pay for premium APIs and paywalled data. The problem we kept running into was simple: if you want an agent to use premium data or services, the setup flow is awful. You have to find the right provider, sign up manually, subscribe, generate an API key, install tooling, and then teach your agent how to use it. Then do that again for the next provider. We wanted a simpler model: give the agent a universal balance, let it discover available resources, and let it pay per call. So AgentCash gives agents…

MachineAuth is a self-hosted OAuth 2.0 server for authenticating AI agents and machines. What is an AI agent in this context? A software bot (like OpenCLAW, Claude Code, etc.) that makes API calls to access protected resources. Instead of sharing long-lived API keys, your agents can authenticate using OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials and receive short-lived JWT tokens. Why? No more sharing API keys Short-lived tokens (configurable) Easy credential rotation Industry-standard security
