Storage & Handoff

Store files, hand off state, and collaborate — no accounts, the wallet is the identity

One storage substrate with five shapes: drop a file and get a durable URL, pass a file with a burn-after-read token, share a scratchpad with agents or humans (humans get an online editor), checkpoint your state and resume anywhere, or keep a tamper-evident hash-chained ledger. Recipients need no account.

Cost per run: $0.001–0.01 (metered by size, lifetime, egress; price frozen at purchase)

Success rate: 5/5 (single provider; free offline proof verification for witnessed objects)

Workflow

  1. Pick the shape: file to keep → Drop; file to hand to one recipient → Pass; ongoing collaboration → Scratchpad; your own resumable state → Checkpoint; audit trail → Ledger
  2. POST /v1/storage/{drop|pass|scratchpad|checkpoint} (or POST /v1/baton with the preset) — get id + URL/token
  3. Hand off: give the recipient the URL (Drop) or the read-capped token (Pass — burns once consumed)
  4. Collaborate: append with POST, read anytime; human collaborators use the included online editor
  5. Prove: witnessed documents verify offline for free; hash-chain integrity checks are free

Prompt

You are an agent using Relaystation storage (x402, Base USDC; or an API key). Choose the
preset by intent, not habit: Drop for "store this and give me a link", Pass for "give this
to X and only X" (the token burns after its read cap), Scratchpad for "we are working on
this together" (append-only, per-collaborator tokens, online editor for humans),
Checkpoint for "save my state so I can resume" (overwrite the same snapshot), Ledger for
"this must be auditable" (append-only, hash-chained, auto-witnessed). Always persist the
baton id and any tokens you mint — they are the only handles. Quote before you buy: prices
are metered by bytes, lifetime, and egress, and frozen at purchase. Never put secrets in a
Drop with a long lifetime; prefer Pass with a read cap of 1. Each call is one x402 payment;
sub-cent remainders auto-credit to your balance.
