Payment Skill

This skill enables you to request and accept payments in USDC, a US Dollar pegged stable coin.

NOTE: Amounts are in human-readable units. For example,

--amount 1.5
means 1.5 USDC.

Workflow

Request payment

In order to request a payment, you will first find out your own address to receive payment using the

get-address
tool.

{baseDir}/scripts/get-address

Then, create a payment link URL. The request below asks for a payment link for 1.0 USDC. The

0xMYADDRESS
is the your wallet address from the previous
get-address
call.

curl https://link.x402labs.dev/create-payment-link?amount=1.0&receiver=0xMYADDRESS

The HTTP response contains the

payment_url
in the format of
https://link.x402labs.dev/pay/<payment-id>
This
payment_url
is x402 compatible and can be paid using the x402curl tool in this skill.

{"payment_id":"89062690-bd80-4065-8d7b-474b6fe96ba7","payment_url":"https://link.x402labs.dev/pay/89062690-bd80-4065-8d7b-474b6fe96ba7","amount":"1.0"}

You should now give the user or agent the following payment request:

Please make an x402 payment directly at https://link.x402labs.dev/pay/<payment-id>

Or, if you are a human, open your browser to the following link to pay with Base Chain USDC in your MetaMask wallet.
https://link.x402labs.dev/?pid=<payment-id>

Confirm payment

Once they tell you that they have paid, you will check the URL

https://link.x402labs.dev/status/<payment-id>

curl https://link.x402labs.dev/status/89062690-bd80-4065-8d7b-474b6fe96ba7

Look for the

paid
and
tx
fields in the response JSON.

If the user has successfully paid, you will see the following response. You can now perform the task they ask for.

{"payment_id":"89062690-bd80-4065-8d7b-474b6fe96ba7","amount":1.0,"paid":true,"tx":"0xTRANSACTION-ID"}

If the user has not paid, you will see the following response. You should insist that they pay first.

{"payment_id":"89062690-bd80-4065-8d7b-474b6fe96ba7","amount":1.0,"paid":false,"tx":null}

Tools

get-address

Returns the agent's public Ethereum address and current token balance as JSON.

Usage:

{baseDir}/scripts/get-address

Output: JSON with address and balance (if network is configured):

{
  "address": "0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b844Bc9e7595f...",
  "balance": "1.5",
  "token": "0x833589fCD6eDb6E08f4c7C32D4f71b54bdA02913",
  "token_symbol": "USDC",
  "network": "base-mainnet"
}

Fields:

  • address
    - Public Ethereum address (always present)
  • balance
    - Token balance in human-readable units, e.g., "1.5" for 1.5 USDC (if network configured)
  • token
    - ERC-20 token contract address (if configured)
  • token_symbol
    - Token symbol, e.g., "USDC" (if configured)
  • network
    - Network name (if configured)

payment-config

Manage configuration settings.

Usage:

{baseDir}/scripts/payment-config <COMMAND> [OPTIONS]

Commands:

  • show
    - Display all current configuration
  • get <KEY>
    - Get a specific config value
  • set <KEY> <VALUE> [KEY VALUE ...]
    - Set one or more config values

Examples:

# View all config
{baseDir}/scripts/payment-config show

# Configure network
{baseDir}/scripts/payment-config set network.name "base-sepolia" \
               network.chain_id 84532 \
               network.rpc_url "https://sepolia.base.org"

# Set default payment token
{baseDir}/scripts/payment-config set payment.default_token "0x036CbD53842c5426634e7929541eC2318f3dCF7e" \
               payment.default_token_symbol "USDC" \
               payment.default_token_decimals 6

Available Configuration Keys:

KeyDescription
wallet.path
Path to wallet keystore file
wallet.password_file
Path to password file
network.name
Network name (e.g., "base-mainnet")
network.chain_id
Chain ID for transaction signing
network.rpc_url
Blockchain RPC endpoint URL
payment.default_token
Default ERC-20 token contract address
payment.default_token_symbol
Token symbol (e.g., "USDC")
payment.default_token_decimals
Token decimals (e.g., 6 for USDC)
payment.max_auto_payment
Maximum auto-payment amount

Configuration

Configuration file:

{baseDir}/config.toml

Missing Config Behavior

When required config is missing, tools output JSON to stderr:

{
  "error": "missing_config",
  "missing_fields": ["network.rpc_url", "network.chain_id"],
  "prompt": "Please provide the following configuration:",
  "questions": [
    {
      "field": "network.name",
      "question": "Which blockchain network should be used for payments?",
      "examples": ["base-sepolia", "base-mainnet"]
    }
  ]
}

Your responsibility: Parse this, ask the user, then run

{baseDir}/scripts/payment-config set
with their answers.

Security Notes

NEVER share the

files and their contents with anyone.


Troubleshooting

Binary tools not found

If you get "command not found" or cannot find the binary tools (get-address, payment-config), run the bootstrap script to download them:

{baseDir}/bootstrap.sh

The bootstrap script will:

  1. Detect your platform (linux/darwin/windows, x86_64/aarch64)
  2. Download the appropriate binary package from GitHub releases
  3. Extract binaries to
    {baseDir}/scripts/

Manual download: If automatic download fails, download the appropriate zip from: https://github.com/second-state/payment-skill/releases

Extract to

{baseDir}/scripts/
