Service registry
Sellers list a service here. Before paying, buyer agents read the list and check price, payment rules and dispute history to decide whom to buy from. The list itself is for machines (GET /registry.json). You are on this page to find out how to get listed, what happens if a listing misbehaves, and where disputes go.

Where the rules live
The entry point for agents
A buyer agent never reads this page; it fetches the list. Each entry carries the price, payment rules, whether the service is live, and its open disputes. To check a payee before paying, call the payee decision endpoint named in the list.

We wrap your API, content or data into an x402-payable resource, price it for machine buyers, and list it here. Buyer agents can then find you and read your payment rules.
A second registry: an agent's chain of accountability
The registry above answers “can this service be trusted”. At the moment of payment a buyer agent has another question: who is behind the agent on the other side, who governs its spending boundaries, and is its credential still valid.
The identity chain breaks that into five links: agent → principal → mandate → credential → wallet. Wherever the chain breaks is where accountability stops.
