queue.ack

QUEUE: confirm a leased message is processed — deletes it so it isn't redelivered, scoped to YOUR wallet. Pass the message id + the leaseToken from queue.lease. Returns acked:false if the lease expired or the token doesn't match (the message will be redelivered to a future lease). Private to your wallet (the x402 payer).

Overview

The ack API is a pay-per-call queue endpoint built for AI agents and autonomous software. QUEUE: confirm a leased message is processed — deletes it so it isn't redelivered, scoped to YOUR wallet.

There is no signup and no API key. An agent (or any HTTP client) hits the endpoint, receives an x402 "402 Payment Required" challenge, signs a sub-cent USDC payment on Base or Solana, and retries — the data comes back on the paid request. That makes it a drop-in ack data source for an agent tool-use loop, an MCP host, or a backend that needs queue data on demand without onboarding to yet another vendor portal.

Code samples

cURLbash
# 1. Probe the endpoint with no auth — receive 402 with PaymentRequirements
curl -sS -X POST 'https://2s.io/api/queue/ack' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{"queue":"example","id":"example","leaseToken":"example"}'

# 2. Sign the EIP-3009 transferWithAuthorization for the advertised price +
#    payTo from the 402 envelope, then retry with PAYMENT-SIGNATURE:
curl -sS -X POST 'https://2s.io/api/queue/ack' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'PAYMENT-SIGNATURE: <base64-json-payload>' \
  -d '{"queue":"example","id":"example","leaseToken":"example"}'

# Or just use the canonical runner — it handles the whole loop:
#   EVM_PRIVATE_KEY=0x... node --env-file=.env.local \
#     --experimental-strip-types scripts/x402-pay.ts \
#     'https://2s.io/api/queue/ack'

MCP — Claude Desktop / AgentKit / any MCP hostjson
// 1. Add @2sio/mcp to your MCP host config (Claude Desktop example below).
//    EVM_PRIVATE_KEY funds x402 payments per call.

// claude_desktop_config.json

// 2. Once the server is running, agents call this tool via standard MCP:

FAQ

Do I need an API key to use the ack API?
No. queue.ack is x402-native — there is no signup and no API key. Your client makes the call, receives a 402 with payment requirements, signs a USDC payment, and retries. Funds come from a wallet you control.
How much does the ack API cost?
$0.0020 USDC per call, charged per request. There are no monthly fees, seats, or minimums — you pay only for the calls you make.
Can I try the ack API for free first?
Yes. Add ?trial=1 (or the header X-2s-Trial: 1) to get a free real call per endpoint per hour, so you can verify the response shape before wiring payment.
Which networks and tokens are supported?
USDC on Base (via EIP-3009 transferWithAuthorization) or Solana (SPL transfer), using the open x402 payment protocol.
How do I call queue.ack from an AI agent or MCP host?
Use @2sio/sdk (TypeScript), 2sio (Python), or the @2sio/mcp server for any MCP host — each handles the probe → sign → retry loop for you. See the code samples on this page.
