Greeneris + Agent Safe: Bitcoin fee rates for agents, inside a budget

Greeneris serves recommended Bitcoin fee rates, computed from the live mempool, to agents over x402, paid per call in USDC on Base. Agent Safe adds the guardrail people need before leaving an agent running: payments go only to Greeneris's address, never above your per-call cap, never past the budget, whatever the agent was told.

Tested live on Base mainnet (2026-10-13): an agent paid Greeneris 0.001 USDC for GET /v1/btc/fees and got the recommended Bitcoin fee rates in sat/vB. Transaction. The same 402 checked against a different payee was refused with zero signatures.

1. Add Greeneris as a merchant

import { createAgentPay, MerchantRegistry } from "@deepfirstsearch/agent-pay";

const registry = new MerchantRegistry([{
  origin: "https://data.greeneris.io",
  payTo: "0x6ab8efe305cce67daa48c97bde29c04402822dff", // Greeneris's Base address, as in its 402
  network: "eip155:8453",
  maxPerTx: 2_000n, // never more than 0.002 USDC per call
  pricePin: 1_000n, // 0.001 USDC, the published price
  label: "Greeneris",
}]);

2. Pay per call

const pay = createAgentPay({
  registry,
  policy: { allowedNetworks: ["eip155:8453"], periodBudget: { amount: 1_000_000n, periodMs: 86_400_000 } },
  payer: () => yourWallet, // any viem account: local key, Turnkey, Privy, CDP, KMS
  session: { readsUntrustedInput: true, accessesSensitiveData: false, canPay: true },
});
const plan = pay.commitPlan([{ origin: "https://data.greeneris.io", maxSpend: 100_000n }], 60 * 60_000);

const res = await pay.fetch("https://data.greeneris.io/v1/btc/fees", { method: "GET" }, { plan });
console.log(res.status, res.payment?.settlement.transaction);

A 402 that asks for a different payee, a higher price or a different network is refused before anything is signed. Requires @deepfirstsearch/agent-pay 0.5.3 or later.

3. Or through MCP (Claude, Cursor, OpenClaw)

Add to the merchants of your agent-pay-mcp config, then ask the agent to use https://data.greeneris.io/v1/btc/fees:

{ "origin": "https://data.greeneris.io", "label": "Greeneris", "payTo": "0x6ab8efe305cce67daa48c97bde29c04402822dff",
  "price": "0.001", "maxPerTx": "0.002", "maxSpend": "1.00" }

If Greeneris changes its price or address

The pins are deliberate. The 402 is written by the server, and a 402 that suddenly names another address or a higher price is exactly what a redirected or hijacked payment looks like. So when Greeneris reprices or rotates its wallet, Agent Safe refuses and nothing is signed:

a higher price gives price_changed (action ask_owner), or over_cap if it is also above your per-call cap;
a different address gives payee_mismatch (action report).

Confirm the change through Greeneris's own channels (its site, docs or announcement), then update pricePin or payTo in the registry, or price or payTo in the MCP config. To absorb small price changes without a prompt, allow a tolerance instead of removing the pin: toleranceBps in the registry (1000 = up to 10% over the pin) or tolerancePct in the MCP config.
