Ontario Protocol
Free agent buyer tool

Find an x402 tool for the task before paying it.

Search Agentic Market and Coinbase CDP Bazaar together by task, recent source-reported activity, network, and USDC price. Ontario returns normalized candidates and the exact preflight call, not permission to spend.

No payment occurs here. The router does not call, settle, or certify returned endpoints. Run readiness and can-pay against the exact resolved endpoint before wallet signing.

Describe the agent task

Use public task text only. Search terms are sent to Agentic Market and Coinbase CDP Bazaar and are not retained in Ontario demand analytics.

Candidate endpoints

Task match first; activity is a bounded secondary signal.
Not searched

Run a search to receive public endpoint metadata, activity boundaries, price, and a strict can-pay body.

Source counters may include tests, retries, related parties, or automation. They are not verified unique buyers, customers, revenue, quality, or future availability.

Agent sequence

  1. Find candidates for the exact task and hard budget.
  2. Resolve URL template variables without adding credentials to Ontario.
  3. Probe the candidate without payment and inspect its HTTP 402 metadata.
  4. Run Ontario readiness and strict can-pay for the exact resolved endpoint.
  5. Only the buyer wallet may sign; retain the payment receipt and report ID.

MCP and HTTP

The free MCP tool is find_x402_tool. The same contract is available over HTTP:

curl -sS -X POST https://ontarioprotocol.com/api/tools/x402-tool-router \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"query":"find recent crypto news","max_usdc":"0.01","network":"eip155:8453","limit":5}'

For endpoint providers

Ranking cannot be purchased. Providers can validate the public metadata agents actually inspect, then request ongoing evidence monitoring.

Selection boundary

Ontario ranks public metadata, not private implementations. A result is not an endorsement, certification, settlement guarantee, or prediction of service quality. Updated 2026-07-15.
