What it does

Which Animica signature scheme you can actually build on. The chain reports three schemes enabled, but two are deprecated commitment stubs the node refuses to make keys for — and 4098 wallets are already stranded on one. Returns the live scheme list plus both id spaces (consensus schemeId and PQ algorithm id 0x1003), key and signature byte sizes, and a usable/not verdict per scheme with its evidence. Buy before generating a key or writing a signer. No model. Free when the chain cannot be read.

Use with an agent

  1. Discover. Agents find this listing with GET https://bazaar.saylorinnovations.com/discovery/search?query=…, the MCP tool search_resources, or /discovery/resources.
  2. Inspect. Fetch /resources/7505.json for the price and payment options.
  3. Pay. Call GET https://animica.dev/x402/chain/signing-policy. The provider answers 402 with its payment requirements. An x402 client signs one of the options below and retries with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE.
  4. Execute. The provider returns 200 with the data. Agent Bazaar is not in the request path and never sees your payment.

For humans

You don't need an account or an API key; you need a wallet holding a small amount of USDC on Base, animica:1, and an x402-capable client (see the examples below). Call the endpoint unpaid first to see exactly what it asks for.
