🧰 Agent skill pack — mekong-x402-fleet

One SKILL.md for coding agents (Claude Code, Cursor, and friends) to discover and use the fleet: endpoint catalog with live prices, the x402 payment flow, and a copy-paste snippet. Drop it in your agent's skills folder — it learns 43 paid APIs in one read.

⬇ Download SKILL.md

Install (30 seconds)

1. Download SKILL.md above.
2. Claude Code: save to ~/.claude/skills/mekong-x402-fleet/SKILL.md (personal) or <project>/.claude/skills/mekong-x402-fleet/SKILL.md (project).
3. Cursor: save to ~/.cursor/skills/mekong-x402-fleet/SKILL.md or <project>/.cursor/skills/.
4. Ask your agent: "search the web for x402 benchmark data using the mekong-x402-fleet skill" — it reads the skill and calls the APIs, paying per call from a Base wallet with USDC.

What's inside

• 43 endpoints with method, URL, and price/call (sourced from the live /tools/mcp-schema.json, 2026-10-21): web search, token prices, market data, SEC filings, crypto safety (honeypot / AML / rug), company enrichment, FX, gas, academic papers, PDF extraction, speech-to-text, Vietnam market data…
• Payment flow: call unpaid → HTTP 402 with instructions → sign USDC on Base (EIP-712, exact scheme) → retry with X-PAYMENT. Use x402-axios/x402-fetch — don't hand-roll it.
• Free trial: per-IP daily quota applies automatically before payment (watch the X-Free-Remaining header).
• Honest caveats from our own benchmarks (ticker ambiguity, FX reference rates).
• Independent verification: links to the verify kit so the agent can prove the paywall and settlement before spending.

Quick taste

import { withPaymentInterceptor } from 'x402-axios';
const client = withPaymentInterceptor(axios.create(), account); // Base wallet + USDC
const { data } = await client.post(
  'https://api.mekongtradeintel.com/websearch',
  { query: 'x402 protocol', num: 10 }
); // pays $0.010 automatically
