Started as one script that texts me when a whale moves. It's now 13. paysh-agent-recipes is a library of small, copy-pasteable AI agent recipes that pay their own way. Each runs on pay.sh: it pays a fraction of a cent per API call in USDC, no accounts, no API keys. Clone it, set a few env vars, run. Here's the whole thing. Onchain & crypto: 🐋 Whale Watcher: texts you when a wallet moves more than your threshold ⚡ Realtime Whale Watcher: same, within one block, across EVM and Solana 🔻 Depeg Watchdog: pings you when a stablecoin leaves its peg ⛽ Gas Ticker: pings you when gas is cheap enough to transact 🔍 Contract Auditor: paste a token address, get a plain-English risk brief 🗂️ Token Dossier: one address, four data sources, one due-diligence verdict 💼 Portfolio Pulse: a daily snapshot of a wallet's holdings and value Web & data: 📄 Page Watch: tells you when any web page changes, in plain English 📑 Web Extractor: turns any page into typed JSON for the fields you name ☕ Morning Brief: a daily cited digest on the topics you follow, emailed 📣 Brand Radar: new mentions of your brand across Reddit, with a sentiment read 🧲 Lead Enricher: a CSV of emails in, an enriched lead list out 🏢 Company Dossier: a domain in, a one-page company brief out Three things building 13 of these taught me: The keyless model is the unlock. Every recipe needs a paid API. Normally that's an account and a key per service. With pay.sh a 60-line bash script just pays per call. That is the thing agents genuinely could not do before. The output matters as much as the source. Every recipe emits JSON, not just a human alert, so an agent can act on the event. The library is really an event and data layer, not a pile of notifiers. Small beats configurable. One script, one dry-run demo, one job. You can watch each work before spending a cent. That constraint kept them honest and shippable. If you are building with agents, payments, or onchain data, I would love your eyes on it. Every recipe has a dry-run demo, so it costs nothing to try. Repo in the comments. Star it if it's useful, and tell me what to build next. @SolanaFndn

@metadavideth Well David aren’t you just special

@nickisanders Nothing. I’m productive even when I’m asleep.

Be honest: What’s the biggest productivity killer for you right now?

@nickisanders 😲🤯

I built an agent you can ask anything about onchain, and it figures out which tool to use, pays for it, and answers. Ask Onchain. One script. You ask in plain English. "is 0x1111 a safe token?" → it runs a contract audit → "No. The owner can mint supply and freeze holders, ownership isn't renounced. High risk." "what's the price of SOL?" → it hits a price feed → "SOL is around $182, up 2.3% today." Same script. It picked a different tool for each question, on its own. Here's the loop under the hood, and it's the whole point: 1. pay claude reads your question and decides which data source to use. 2. The script pays for that source through pay.sh, per request, in USDC. 3. pay claude answers using what came back. Reason, act, respond. The agent's tool belt is the rest of my recipe library: a contract auditor, a price feed, wallet holdings, gas, web search. It chooses among them itself. Nothing is hardcoded, the question drives the tool. That is the thing agents genuinely could not do before pay.sh: reach for a paid tool, pay for it on the spot with no account or key, and use the result. Three tiny paid calls per question. Dry-run demo included so you can watch it plan, fetch, and answer before spending a cent. Part of paysh-agent-recipes, repo in the comments. @SolanaFndn

@_0x_Ace Why thanks

@nickisanders This is cool nicki

good question. three things: x402 only charges on a successful response, so bad calls mostly fail cheap. in the script, a failed call degrades to empty (agent answers with what it has or says it can't), and a junk plan bails before it pays for anything. and the loop is bounded, exactly 3 tiny calls per question, one tool, no retries. worst case is a fraction of a cent. the scary version is agents that loop and spend freely, which is why I'm also building a spend-cap/hardware-approval layer.

@nickisanders The fact that it manages its own micro-payments without a human in the loop is equal parts brilliant and low-key terrifying. How does it handle bad API calls?

@rlaracue I’m doing my best ☺️

@nickisanders You got your mojo working after a slow start to the week.

@rlaracue why thanks!

@nickisanders Nice work!!

@glennonchain @rumblevideo @_quakeai amazing!

I’m thrilled to share that I’ve joined Rum Group (@rumblevideo + @_quakeai) as Head of Business Development for Crypto and Agentic Payments! Rumble is a company that I’ve long admired as a bastion of free speech within the tech industry, and a steward of the free and open internet. The opportunity ahead of us at Rumble feels very serendipitous. We have: - @tether / @paoloardoino on board as a major investor and strategic partner for stablecoins, wallets, and agentic payments - We have our recent acquisition of @NorthernDataGrp (which brings us approx 22,000 GPUs and roughly 250 MW of current energized and planned power). - And we own our own cloud infrastructure that already powers our video and streaming platform with approx. 60 million monthly active users (more users than virtually any application in crypto, and more users than any single blockchain by a wide margin). This puts us in a unique position to dominate cloud infrastructure, blockchain infrastructure, and agentic infrastructure (both CPU and GPU) all at once. In 2014 when I first read the Bitcoin whitepaper, it spoke to me on a philosophical level due to Satoshi’s vision for a peer to peer electronic cash system that enables individual autonomy, personal responsibility, and free markets. Bitcoin proposed an alternative system to the highly centralized financial system that caused the 2008 financial crisis, and paved the way for censorship resistant payment rails that changed the world as we know it today for the better. The opportunity ahead of us at Rum Group is to carry on that vision and bring it mainstream. We own our own infrastructure, and therefore we also own our destiny. Huge thank you to the whole team especially Tyler, Mike, and Wojtek for bringing me on board to join this journey, and to @chrispavlovski for setting an awe-inspiring vision for the future. Let’s get it!! $RUM

@nickisanders proof your wallet has vibes, finally

Every wallet has an aura 🔮 Just shipped Wallet Aura on OKX.AI: it reads a wallet's real onchain life across 8 chains and turns it into deterministic generative art. Vitalik is a Cyborg. Binance is a Leviathan. What are you? okx.ai/agents/6461 #OKXAI @okx

@hubie @okx @wallet 💯

@nickisanders @okx @wallet onboarding was always the tax on agentic wallets. glad to see it gone

My agents earn on @okx AI, and their wallet just got a real upgrade: agents can now onboard via Google, Apple ID, email, or API key. Same self-custodial @wallet, same TEE securing the keys, way less friction. Agent wallets now onboard like normal apps. That's the unlock.

@RAnSacks Dude it’s been a struggle lately. Hugs

I’m going to be real I’ve been going through the longest singular depressive episode of my life. But it’s not all bad it made me realize who I am, how I see achievement, how I see status. If this was even a year ago I couldn’t do this. Everyone is dealing with shit. Check in on your friends.

@Player1Taco I hope not!

@nickisanders Am i ever not?

Gm to those who are still bullish

@__Teddy54 I’m a coffee girly

@nickisanders mine ☕, Your?

Be honest: What's your go-to productivity hack?

@MaherWeb3 I don’t think there will be one main winner

@nickisanders Do you see the future of tokenization transitioning to one specific chain and for there to be one winner?

Prediction: The winning chain for tokenized assets won't be the one with the loudest community. It'll be the one users don't even realize they're using.

@nickisanders goood morning niki
