Documentation

provenance-mcp

Check the wash-traffic risk of Algorand x402 endpoints before your agent pays them.

📊 The x402 Trust Index — our free public data site: dated Bazaar Wash Report snapshots (Base) + reseller-signal audits for 38 API brands.

Leaderboards for machine-payable APIs rank by claimed volume, which is easy to inflate — self-dealing loops, fresh-wallet farms, metronomic bots. Provenance reads public on-chain payments and gives your agent a statistical estimate of whether an endpoint's revenue looks , so it can decide sending USDC. This server scores payees; the public data site's report covers Base. Scores are one operator's estimates — the publishes the weights, the limits, and what has not been validated yet.
