# x402-router-crawler

> Self-described in its user-agent as "x402-router-crawler/4.0", a crawler for an x402 payment-routing service. No operator page or public documentation could be found as of 2026-10-23.

## Dossier

- Kind: Agentic web & MCP registries
- Operator: unknown

## Why it matters to New Runtime (our interpretation)

Likely discovering x402-payable endpoints for an agent payment router; relevant to our x402 offering, but unattributed.

## Observed behaviour

- Baseline 2026-10-24 (94-day window): 14 requests on 4 days; first seen 2026-10-19, last seen 2026-10-22; New this week.
- Live numbers: https://newruntime.com/bot-traffic-history.json and https://newruntime.com/crawler-journeys.json

## Sources

- No public source found; the dossier describes only what the client declares and did.

Identity: A family name is what a client claims in its user agent. It is verified only when its request came from the operator's published IP ranges or passed forward-confirmed reverse DNS, as reported per family in /crawler-journeys.json. Anyone can claim any name.
