X402 payment handler for AI agent payment flows — middleware for agent-to-agent transactions
an open-source middleware framework for agentic economics on the Sui blockchain. This is the missing composable module layer between Sui's L1 primitives and real-world AI agent applications, analogous to x402 + ERC-8004 + Google AP2 on EVM — but native to Sui's object model.
The programmable OS for AI agents. Enable machines to autonomously discover and pay for services via ERC-8004 (Identity), x402 (Payments), and ERC-8183 (Escrow). Solve machine "economic disability" with AP2-powered mandates and budget policies, providing secure access to the internet’s full economic surface area.
AgentNexus2 is Base-native infrastructure for agent-to-agent payments, built around small, deterministic USDC escrow and settlement flows. It is designed for developers integrating autonomous agents and services that require verifiable, non-custodial payment coordination. AgentNexus2 is not a consumer application or marketplace.
