The economics behind ForgeMesh's approach to agent discovery: 10 structured tenets on why free surfaces stay rich, what buyers are actually paying for (aggregation and freshness, not secrets), how upstream risk is tiered, and how settlement drives Bazaar visibility. Structured JSON — id, tenet, detail per entry.
# 1. Ask the endpoint what it costs (no payment, no wallet needed): curl -i -X GET 'https://x402.forgemesh.io/discovery-economics' # -> HTTP/1.1 402 Payment Required # the response carries the price, asset and pay-to address. # 2. Pay and retry with any x402 client: npx x402-fetch 'https://x402.forgemesh.io/discovery-economics'
