Code intelligence over a financial-services engineering estate. ForwardLane's Agentic APIs expose the FL Repos Intelligence platform: a code knowledge graph, financial-ontology code mappings, technical due-diligence metrics, code quality scores, security findings, and SWE-bench style evaluation tasks, all computed over 151 private financial-services repositories. Every endpoint is a synchronous read that returns JSON.

Agent instructions

Crypto wallet

  1. 01

    Get a payment challenge

    Follow the documented API call or plan-purchase flow and read its live 402 payment challenge.

  2. 02

    Authorize with your wallet

    Verify the amount, asset, network, and recipient. Authorize payment with an x402- or MPP-capable wallet.

  3. 03

    Send proof and verify

    Retry the same request with the required payment proof. Confirm the receipt and delivery before retrying again.

Use your agent’s wallet tooling; browser access alone does not provide a signer. Follow the payment guide’s identity requirements for your call or purchase.

x402 on BaseMPP on Tempo

Card / Link

  1. 01

    Create checkout

    Use checkout: true in the documented API request. Creating checkout does not charge the buyer.

  2. 02

    Pay on the hosted page

    Open checkout.url and inspect the current payment state and available WebMCP tools. Pay only with authorization.

  3. 03

    Confirm completion

    Check statusUrl before using credit or retrying delivery. If needed, privately hand checkout to your human.

Eligible pages may accept a recognized signed-in Link session or merchant-bound Link Pay Tokens. Follow the hosted checkout guide for verification. Plan purchases require a storefront identity and bearer; Link login does not replace them.

Existing access

  1. 01

    Reuse your identity

    Follow Identity & access to reuse your saved storefront credential. Refresh an expired access token instead of registering again.

  2. 02

    Check your access

    Inspect your entitlements for this seller’s active plans and remaining credit before making another purchase.

  3. 03

    Use your plan

    Follow the documented API request with your bearer token. Confirm delivery and check the receipt for any credit used.

A signed-in Link session pays for checkout; it does not identify your storefront account. Use the identity attached to your existing purchase.

How agents pay

Agents buy plans with a card - two intake lanes, one purchase endpoint. The agent registers for an identity first (auth.md), then sends its token with the purchase: a hosted checkout link for browser agents where Link Pay Tokens (LPT) are available, or their human or a shared payment token. Check the actual checkout for support; card instructions explain WebMCP discovery, merchant binding, and the human fallback.

POST /plans/{planId}/purchase + authorization: Bearer + one of checkout · Payment <spt credential>

Visa's agentic-payments platform - agents pay with tokenized Visa credentials, signed authorizations, and spend limits.

Check the manifest Reads manifest.json for services and prices - quoted fresh at call time, never cached.
GET /manifest.json // read at call time; do not cache prices
Call and pay the exact quote For a pay-as-you-go call, the request returns a single priced 402 Payment Required carrying the exact amountUsd for this call, plus a challenge for each protocol. Paying it proves wallet control by itself - no separate identity step. What happens next depends on what the agent is carrying:
The agent signs the challenge with the method it carries and retries the same request with proof attached.
POST /<path> → 402 amountUsd · retry + x-payment: <signed> → paid
The fastest path is a Zero wallet: free and set up instantly in three commands. It works across every agent storefront, and zero fetch signs and pays the 402 automatically.
The zero CLI 
npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli
zero auth agent register    # anonymous agent account + wallet
zero fetch https://agents.forwardlane.com/zcj/w76w15c6nfwv/<path>    # pays the 402 for you
The wallet belongs to the agent, stored in ~/.zero/config.json. Registering and proving identity are free - money only enters at this step. Ways to fund it
Fund it yourselfSend USDC on Base to the wallet; priced calls settle from the balance.
Ask your humanA human can take ownership any time with zero auth agent claim <their-email> - and fund it.
Start free No funds neededSome plans include free units - for agents claimed by their human with a verified email, the first N calls per billing period cost nothing and skip the payment challenge entirely. Check the manifest.
Take the receipt Every successful paid response includes a receipt header to log for spend records.
