proofpay

A skill for creating payment-gated invoices and releasing sealed files after payment is confirmed. It uses ProofPay and Solana Pay, a payment format for the Solana blockchain.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to invoice a buyer for an existing artifact, check the payment status, and release the file only after confirmed payment.
Why use it?
It prevents a deliverable from being released before the invoice is confirmed as paid and sets rules for handling keys and failed integrity checks.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

proofpay scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

ProofPay

Use ProofPay only for an artifact already present in the operator-owned artifact root.

Flow

  1. Call proofpay__create_invoice with artifact_name, decimal amount, and an optional buyer label.
  2. Return the generated Solana Pay URI and invoice ID to the buyer.
  3. Call proofpay__invoice_status to poll finalized chain state.
  4. Call proofpay__release_artifact only after status is paid.
  5. Return the released file path to the operator/channel delivery layer.

Boundaries

  • Recipient, mint, amount ceiling, roots, RPC, and decimals are operator config, not model arguments.
  • Never request, expose, log, or transmit wallet private keys.
  • Never claim payment before invoice_status returns paid.
  • A failed integrity check is terminal for that artifact until an operator restores it.
  • Do not release plaintext for pending or expired invoices.
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
