Monetizing AI Agents with x402, CloudFront, and Lambda@Edge

AWS shows a sample architecture for monetizing HTTP requests with x402 micropayments using CloudFront and Lambda@Edge.

An AI agent can autonomously pay in USDC to retrieve content through an MCP-based toolchain.

The setup supports both Base Sepolia and Solana Devnet, demonstrating cross-chain payment flows.

The pattern points to a practical way to charge machine-to-machine API calls and agent-driven content access.
