LangChain tools for pr402/x402 protocol — autonomous AI agent payments on Solana

langchain-pr402

LangChain tools for autonomous AI agent payments on Solana via the pr402/x402 protocol.

Give any LangChain agent a Solana wallet so it can autonomously pay for HTTP services that return 402 Payment Required.

Installation

pip install langchain-pr402

Quick Start

from langchain_pr402 import X402RequestsWrapper, X402GetTool, X402BalanceTool

# 1. Create a wrapper with your agent's Solana keypair (defaults to Devnet)
wrapper = X402RequestsWrapper(
    keypair_bytes=[1, 2, 3, ...],  # 64-byte Solana keypair as list of ints
    # rpc_url defaults to "https://api.devnet.solana.com"
    # default_facilitator_url defaults to "https://preview.ipay.sh" (Devnet)
)

# 2. Create tools and give them to your agent
tools = [
    X402GetTool(requests_wrapper=wrapper),
    X402BalanceTool(requests_wrapper=wrapper),
]

# 3. Use with any LangChain agent (GPT-4, Claude, Llama, etc.)
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI
from langchain.agents import create_tool_calling_agent, AgentExecutor

llm = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o-mini")
agent = create_tool_calling_agent(llm, tools, prompt)
executor = AgentExecutor(agent=agent, tools=tools)
executor.invoke({"input": "Check my wallet balance"})

How It Works

1. Your agent calls X402GetTool to fetch a URL.
2. If the server responds with HTTP 402 Payment Required, the tool automatically:
   • Parses the payment terms from the Payment-Required header
   • Builds a Solana transaction via the pr402 facilitator (Devnet by default)
   • Signs the transaction locally with the agent's keypair
   • Retries the request with a PAYMENT-SIGNATURE header
3. The agent receives the paid content — the LLM never sees the payment complexity.

Tools

Tool	Description
X402GetTool	GET requests with automatic 402 payment handling
X402PostTool	POST requests with automatic 402 payment handling
X402BalanceTool	Check the agent's wallet address and SOL/USDC balance

Setting Up the Agent Wallet

AI agents don't create their own wallets. The developer provisions one:

1. Create a wallet: solana-keygen new -o agent-keypair.json
2. Fund it: Send USDC and a small amount of SOL for transaction fees
3. Configure: Pass the keypair bytes to X402RequestsWrapper

# Via environment variable (recommended for production)
export SOLANA_PRIVATE_KEY='[1,2,3,...,64]'

import os, json
wrapper = X402RequestsWrapper(
    keypair_bytes=json.loads(os.environ["SOLANA_PRIVATE_KEY"])
)

Networks

By default, the wrapper is configured for Solana Devnet (great for testing). To switch to Mainnet, override both URLs:

wrapper = X402RequestsWrapper(
    keypair_bytes=json.loads(os.environ["SOLANA_PRIVATE_KEY"]),
    rpc_url="https://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com",
    default_facilitator_url="https://ipay.sh",  # Mainnet facilitator
)

Network	RPC URL	Facilitator URL
Devnet (default)	https://api.devnet.solana.com	https://preview.ipay.sh
Mainnet	https://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com	https://ipay.sh

Security

• Private key material is never serialised — keypair_bytes is excluded from model_dump(), repr(), and logging.
• The wrapper signs transactions locally. Private keys never leave the machine.
• The pr402 facilitator only receives the public key and returns an unsigned transaction.
