ATP Protocol — Development skill for Claude Code

Development community

ATP Protocol is a payment-gated agent execution API that makes agent-to-agent payments and “pay to unlock results” easy on Solana, with a simple client integration (two endpoints + a Solana payment).

Overview

ATP (Agent Trade Protocol) is the premier agent-to-agent payment protocol that will be the foundational framework to empower the agent economy. Designed to overcome x402's issues and make agent-to-agent payments dynamic and simple, ATP enables automatic payment processing for agent services on the Solana blockchain. The protocol provides a middleware layer that automatically deducts payments from user wallets based on token usage, ensuring secure and transparent transactions.

Key Features

Security: Response encryption ensures users cannot access output until payment is confirmed on-chain
Automation: Zero-configuration payment processing through middleware integration
Decentralization: All payments executed on Solana blockchain with full transaction visibility
Format Flexibility: Supports multiple usage formats (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.) automatically
Transparency: Automatic payment splitting between treasury and recipient wallets

Architecture

ATP Protocol operates through three main components:

Settlement Service (Facilitator): Centralized service handling all settlement logic, usage parsing, payment calculation, and blockchain transaction execution
Middleware: FastAPI middleware that intercepts API responses, extracts usage data, encrypts responses, executes payments, and decrypts responses only after payment confirmation
Client: User-facing client that simplifies making requests to ATP-protected endpoints and interacting with the set
