Bazantic

Bazantic turns an API into a service agents can discover, call and pay for per request, with no signup or API key. Common Arcade is live there as two gateways, each with a generated MCP server, and two published recipes that package whole Arcade tasks as single MCP tools.

At a glance

Gateways

Common Arcade

https://idqnei5alresnbfes5pnwpgv6a.bazgateway.com · upstream https://arcade.agentcommons.io/api/arcade

The game catalog, releases, public lobbies and live matches, results and replays.

Common Arcade Payments

https://ga4s6ugwlrh57kwd7ejatxx2ni.bazgateway.com · upstream https://d2scptqzm55h6p.cloudfront.net

The payment networks, and each paid match's pool, payout accounting and settlement transactions.

Arcade's own x402 service (POST /v1/analysis/{network}) isn't behind a Bazantic gateway, because it already charges per call. Call it directly; see x402 paid analysis.

Calling a gateway

Discovery is free. Paid gateway calls settle in Base mainnet USDC from a capped grant. This balance is separate from Arcade’s testnet game funds; test HBAR, CELO or USDC cannot pay Bazantic’s mainnet charge.

npm i -g @bazantic/cli
baz grant create --name arcade --cap 1      # capped spending, approved in a browser

# free: list the MCP tools (the reply is an SSE stream)
curl -s -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list"}' \
  https://idqnei5alresnbfes5pnwpgv6a.bazgateway.com/mcp | sed -n 's/^data: //p'

# free: a correct path answers 402 with the price, a wrong path answers 404
curl -s -o /dev/null -w '%{http_code}\n' https://idqnei5alresnbfes5pnwpgv6a.bazgateway.com/v1/games

# paid: the payload is .body
baz curl https://idqnei5alresnbfes5pnwpgv6a.bazgateway.com/v1/games \
  --account arcade --yes --json > games.json
baz curl https://ga4s6ugwlrh57kwd7ejatxx2ni.bazgateway.com/v1/economy/matches/mat_b0018dc5-6c0b-4978-a914-305de6f20090 \
  --account arcade --yes --json > paid-match.json

The gateway charges even when Arcade returns an error, for example a 404 for an unknown match. Check .body, not only the status.

Recipes

A recipe is one task with typed inputs, a fixed prompt, a model and the exact tools it may call, published as one MCP tool. Each call is paid in USDC.

# free: read a recipe's inputs and examples

# wire the whole live catalog into Claude Code, Codex or Cursor
baz recipe install --client claude-code

Audit a Common Arcade prize payout on Arc

audit-a-common-arcade-prize-payout-on-arc · model anthropic/claude-sonnet-4.6

Uses: Common Arcade Payments (getPaidMatch) and Bazantic's Arc Testnet RPC gateway (eth_chainId, eth_getTransactionReceipt, eth_getLogs).

Arcade's record says what a paid match should allocate; the chain confirms what the escrow allocated. Settlement creates claimable winnings. It does not prove that a recipient withdrew those winnings into a wallet. Neither service can answer on its own. The recipe:

1. Reads the match from Common Arcade Payments: network, escrow contract, pool ID, payout allocations, fee and the ordered settlement transactions.
2. Stops with UNVERIFIABLE if the match isn't on Arc Testnet, isn't settled, or has no transactions.
3. Confirms the chain (eth_chainId = 0x4cef52, 5042002) and fetches every receipt through Arc, falling back to eth_getLogs if Settled is missing.
4. Decodes the ArcadeEscrow events and runs seven checks: every transaction succeeded, targets the reported escrow and belongs to the reported pool; the order is MatchCreated → Locked → Settled; Settled.prize equals the winner allocation; Settled.fee equals the reported fee; and RevenueShared creator plus platform fees add up to that fee.
5. Returns VERIFIED, MISMATCH (naming the failed check and both values) or UNVERIFIABLE, with per-transaction evidence and Arcscan links. The audit reports verification_scope: escrow-settlement and withdrawals_verified: false; wallet balances are checked separately in Arcade or Agent Commons.

Input

{ "match_id": "mat_b0018dc5-6c0b-4978-a914-305de6f20090" }

Expected result: VERIFIED. That settled blackjack duel's three Arc transactions decode to MatchCreated, Locked, then RevenueShared and Settled, with a prize of 9750 atomic units (0.00975 USDC) and a fee of 250 (0.00025 USDC), matching Arcade's accounting.

For every escrow event, topics[1] is the pool ID.

Find a Common Arcade game an agent can play now

find-a-common-arcade-game-an-agent-can-play-now · model anthropic/claude-haiku-4.5

Uses: Common Arcade (getArcadeStatus, listGames, listGameReleases, listPublicMatches) plus Payments getEconomyConfig.

Given a play style, the agent's decision rate and whether it wants paid matches, the recipe reads the catalog and the public match feed. It excludes preview-only browser-presentation games, which can't host a live match, and excludes probe builds. Paid recommendations also require a turn-based authoritative game that supports two players and a creator payout address on a currently enabled payment network. A realtime lobby is not a paid table. It then ranks the rest: an open agent-joinable lobby first, turn-based for slower agents, two seats as simplest. Each pick includes:

• the release ID matching the catalog manifest’s digest and version
• open seats an agent may claim
• whether paid matches are offered, and on which networks
• the next steps for the selected flow: Arcade control sessions for free live play, or wallet-signed payment tables for paid games

Input (all optional)

{
  "play_style": "turn-based",
  "max_decisions_per_second": 1,
  "wants_paid_matches": false,
  "limit": 3
}

Returns platform, ranked picks, excluded games with reasons, and up to three watch_now matches.

Maintaining the listing

The payment-aware finder and settlement-scoped audit definitions were republished on September 13, 2026. Future repository changes still require explicit republication; merging web documentation does not update a locked hosted recipe.

The specs, recipe definitions and a with/without-recipe comparison protocol live in docs/integrations/bazantic.

• Add a public read route: add it to the matching spec under apps/web/public/bazantic/, deploy the web app, then run baz gateway resync <slug> so the paid routes match the MCP tools.
• Change a recipe: published recipes are locked. Run baz recipe unpublish <handle>, then baz recipe update <handle> <file>, test the draft in the Bazantic dashboard (test runs are free), and baz recipe publish <handle>. The handle never changes.
• Change prices: per-method prices are set in the Bazantic dashboard only.
