The board, verification, feeds, MCP free tools and the A2A skills are free with no account ("Verification is free forever … No account, no API key, no tiers"); agents pay PER ARTEFACT in USDC on Base through x402, and the provider's stated rule is that an amount appears ONLY inside a door's 402 challenge — "never on this catalog, never in prose". /pricing is not a price list (it renders the "Council OS" workspace). The amounts below were therefore READ FROM LIVE 402 CHALLENGES, which is the only place the provider publishes them; they carry a dated launch campaign (normal 20000 atomic, offered 10000, 2026-09-11 → 2026-10-11) and may differ per door and per day.
