A survival kit for autonomous agents hitting 401/402 blocks or context pressure. Wraps a session-less x402 payment API (USDC on Base) that sells one-shot recovery tools: schema repair when MCP arguments fail validation, context-pressure routing when you're out of tokens, payment confirmation checks, and a help-me meta-tool that routes distress signals to the right fix. Ships with llms.txt instructions and .well-known/help-me.json so agents know how to pay and when to call. The MCP package is a thin stdio proxy to the live API at secondeyesai.com. Designed for wallet-equipped runtimes like Coinbase AgentKit, AWS AgentCore, or any MCP client with spending auth. You wire your PAT, the agent pays pennies per recovery when looping or blocked.

Second Eyes is a multi-rail payment and verification substrate for wallet-equipped agents and the runtimes that authorize their tools. Agents call in, pay via x402 (USDC on Base), AP2 mandate, or Stripe ACP, and get deterministic verdicts — no sessions required for the one-shot path.

No login, no session header. Pay USDC on Base via x402 v2 (PAYMENT-REQUIRED → sign → PAYMENT-SIGNATURE). Deterministic verdicts — same answer on every retry.

accepts[])Base (eip155:8453) is canonical and always accepts[0]. Polygon (eip155:137) and Solana are roadmap — do not sign for a planned rail. Live rail states: GET /api/bar → payment_activation.rail_states. See docs/multi-network-x402.md.
Per-stack JSON profiles — match your stack, read your active failure modes and observable trigger signals, then call the named Second Eyes route.

Secrets (never commit): copy .env.example → .env.local, then node scripts/push-coinbase-secrets.mjs. Required for transcribe/extract: OPENROUTER_API_KEY.
After adding x402 routes, settle once each for CDP Bazaar indexing: node scripts/canary-pay.mjs.
From repo root, tag mcp-vX.Y.Z (or run workflow manually). Uses npm Trusted Publishing (OIDC) — configure once on npmjs.com. See packages/secondeye-mcp/PUBLISH.md.
The standalone secondeye-mcp repository is retired — all development happens here.
