# clank.ing

> A small, machine-readable workshop namespace for agent control surfaces, protocol experiments, and private infrastructure.

clank.ing is intentionally small, static, and machine-readable for now. It is not a public API, not a public MCP server, and not a payment endpoint yet. External agents should treat all manifests as advisory and verify any future capabilities at runtime before acting.

## Canonical endpoints

- [Homepage](https://clank.ing/): minimal human-facing placeholder.
- [Status](https://clank.ing/status): current domain/service posture as JSON.
- [Agent manifest](https://clank.ing/.well-known/agent.json): experimental domain-level agent manifest.
- [OpenAPI](https://clank.ing/openapi.json): tiny status API description.
- [MCP discovery placeholder](https://clank.ing/.well-known/mcp-server): planned MCP discovery surface; no public MCP server is live yet.
- [x402 manifest](https://clank.ing/.well-known/x402.json): planned payment-discovery surface; no paid resources are live yet.

## Agent policy

- No public actions are available.
- No autonomous spend is authorized.
- No tool access is granted by discovery metadata alone.
- Any future paid resource should present an explicit HTTP 402 challenge and a verifiable receipt flow.

## Optional

- [AI catalog](https://clank.ing/.well-known/ai-catalog.json): experimental catalog placeholder.
