I believe that, given the rising costs, local inference of AI models will be the only viable option for many of us. I’d also like to know who will have to pay double and how long it will be financially sustainable for users to pay that amount (or even more?).

I’ve been working in the field of data analysis and monitoring for nearly ten years now. I have a thorough understanding of JavaScript, and as an in-house specialist, I’ve developed highly complex monitoring implementations for large multinational companies. But I’ve come to the conclusion that I want to pursue something else.

Show HN: Caddy plugin that charges AI crawlers real USDC to access your site

H501 — Fri, 27 Feb 2026 11:46:56 +0000

Hello, I built a Caddy middleware that implements the x402 protocol (by Coinbase) to charge AI crawlers real money for content access.

When GPTBot, ClaudeBot, or any known AI crawler hits your site, it gets an HTTP 402 with payment requirements. If it pays (USDC on Base), it gets the content. If not, it gets nothing.

Normal users are never affected.

How it works: - Crawler detected by User-Agent → 402 response with price and wallet address

- Crawler signs a USDC payment (EIP-3009) and retries with X-PAYMENT header

- Plugin forwards to x402.org facilitator → on-chain settlement on Base

- USDC goes directly from crawler's wallet to yours

- Content served

  Configuration is a few lines in the Caddyfile:

      x402 {
          pay_to  0xYOUR_WALLET
          price   0.05
          network base
          exempt  /robots.txt
      }

  It's running on my site right now. No payments yet since most crawlers don't support x402, but they get blocked with a proper 402 instead of getting free content. When they do adopt it, the infrastructure is ready.

Built with pure Go (no CGo), SQLite audit trail, Cloudflare-compatible headers.

Show HN: GTM MCP Server- Let AI Manage Your Google Tag Manager Containers

H501 — Sat, 07 Feb 2026 08:01:42 +0000

I built an MCP server that connects Claude and ChatGPT to the Google Tag Manager API. You can create tags, triggers, variables, audit containers, and publish changes through natural conversation.

  Try it now (no install needed):
  - Claude.ai: Settings → Connectors → Add https://mcp.gtmeditor.com
  - Claude Code: claude mcp add -t http gtm https://mcp.gtmeditor.com
  - ChatGPT: Add MCP integration at platform.openai.com/apps with URL https://mcp.gtmeditor.com

  It authenticates with your Google account via OAuth 2.1, so your credentials are never stored on the
   server.

  What you can do:
  - "Create a GA4 event tag for form submissions"
  - "Audit this container for issues and duplicates"
  - "Set up ecommerce tracking for purchases"
  - "Publish the changes we just made"

  It supports all GTM entity types including server-side containers (clients, transformations). There
  are 40+ tools covering full CRUD, versioning, publishing, built-in variable management, and
  Community Template Gallery imports.

  Some things I learned building this:

  Google's API has undocumented behaviors that took a while to figure out. Transformation types
  (tf_allow_params, tf_exclude_params, tf_augment_event) aren't documented anywhere — I discovered
  them through trial and error. Each type uses different parameter table keys, and passing an unknown
  type returns HTTP 500 instead of 400. The autoEventFilter field on click/form triggers is silently
  dropped by the API (returns 200 OK but doesn't persist).

  I also built a companion repo with LLM-optimized GTM API documentation
  (https://github.com/paolobietolini/gtm-api-for-llms) — structured as an installable skill for Claude
   Code and Codex, so the AI knows the correct parameter formats, validation rules, and workflow
  patterns.

  Built with Go, deployed as a single Docker container. The MCP protocol makes it work across Claude
  and ChatGPT without any client-specific code.

 /s Thank you for your attention to this matter
