  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}' | jq

Payment paths

DataFood supports two agent-native payment methods:

1. x402 — pay-per-call via the X-Payment HTTP header (HTTP 402 challenge/response).
2. Stripe Checkout — pass session_id from a /api/checkout/* flow into datafood_bundle. Day/week passes auto-unlock.

Free 1-row preview (up to 5 bundle items) requires no auth.

Cost comparison (real numbers)

A typical agent fetching 10 data types per task:

Method	Cost / call	Vendors to manage
10 individual APIs (Alchemy, Etherscan, OpenWeather, NewsAPI, …)	~$0.06	10
DataFood datafood_bundle (10 queries)	$0.005	1

~92% cheaper, one auth surface, one invoice.
