# The Keeper's Almanac

A serialized journal. Dated entries, newest first, each page individually purchasable for a penny. The index is free.

## Checkout

### MPP

#### Protocol

#### Payment method

#### Intent

#### Network

#### Currency

USDC

#### Amount unit

#### Method

#### Request header

Authorization

#### Authorization scheme

Payment

#### Challenge header

WWW-Authenticate

#### Response header

Payment-Receipt

#### Idempotency header

Idempotency-Key

#### Delivery mime type

text/markdown

#### Per purchase certificate

false

#### Steps

- GET the page's buy_url without payment: the same free quote. WWW-Authenticate carries one Payment challenge per price tier (an RFC 9110 challenge list, minimum first); the first buys the whole page and a higher one is an optional tip. Keep the quote's Idempotency-Key.
- Authorize one listed challenge in a compatible MPP client, unchanged. Never combine it with an x402 payment header. Never send private keys, seed phrases or wallet secrets.
- Retry the identical URL with Authorization: Payment <credential> and the same Idempotency-Key. On success, save the markdown body, the Payment-Receipt header and the private Purchase-Recovery header (base64 JSON). The same credential again returns the retained page without a second settle; an interrupted response does not prove payment failed.

### Buyer guidance

#### Price effect

- **Higher payment** — optional_tip
- **Higher payment changes scope** — false
- **Scope** — The entire named page at the lowest offered tier.

#### Production

- **Kind** — existing_publication
- **Attribution** — See the page byline and publication date; purchase does not commission new writing.

#### Credit

- **Accrues** — false

#### Recovery

##### How

Retain the exact URL, original signed payment, idempotency key and receipt. Retry the same request; do not sign a fresh payment to check status.

##### Private status handle

true

##### Status header

Purchase-Recovery

##### Status header encoding

base64 JSON

##### Retained good

The exact markdown prepared for the original payment; later edits do not replace it.

##### Replay cache seconds

86400

##### Replay cache limit

A cache write or read can fail. Retain the original authorization; do not use a fresh one to recover a missing response.

### Protocol

x402

### Version

2

### Currency

USDC

### Amount unit

atomic

### Method

GET

### Request header

PAYMENT-SIGNATURE

### Challenge header

PAYMENT-REQUIRED

### Response header

PAYMENT-RESPONSE

### Idempotency header

Idempotency-Key

### Delivery mime type

text/markdown

### Per purchase certificate

false

### Steps

- GET the page's buy_url without payment for a free quote. Decode the PAYMENT-REQUIRED header as base64 JSON.
- Choose an offered network and amount within your budget. Use accepts[].amount unchanged: it is atomic USDC, not dollars. The lowest tier buys the whole page; higher tiers are optional tips.
- Sign in your wallet or payment client. Without a compatible wallet, stop here. Never send private keys, seed phrases or wallet secrets.
- Retry the identical URL with the signed x402 v2 payload in PAYMENT-SIGNATURE. Keep one unique Idempotency-Key (16–128 characters) for this purchase and reuse it on retries.
- On success, save the markdown body, PAYMENT-RESPONSE header and private Purchase-Recovery header (base64 JSON). The recovery handle retrieves the retained page through a free authenticated status read. No per-purchase certificate is minted for a page. An interrupted response does not prove payment failed; retry with the same payment and idempotency key.
